You can make the clock on your iPhone Lock Screen bigger with iOS 26, and this is how

The brand new Apple update has just arrived, and one of the new iOS 26 features is being able to make the clock on your Lock Screen bigger.

For as long as we can all remember, the clock has been in exactly the same spot, located in small text at the top of the Lock Screen underneath the date.

Nobody ever gave it much thought, but now the feature is here, everyone’s realising it actually looks great. The digital time can take up almost half the screen, making it easier to read.

If you want to do it, here’s exactly how to make the clock on your iPhone Lock Screen bigger with iOS 26.

What if it won’t let you drag the clock corner on the Lock Screen?

If there isn’t an option to drag the corner of the clock down and change its size, that’s because you’re using a different font. You are only able to change the clock size on iOS 26 when using Apple’s default font right now, and all others aren’t supported.
