The popular iOS camera app, Halide Mark II now offers seven iOS 16 Lock Screen widgets, support for iPhone 14, higher megapixels and more.

Apple’s latest hardware and software updates have introduced new features and capabilities. The iOS 16 brings a customizable Lock Screen on compatible iPhones which allow users to add widgets on the Lock Screen for users to view important information at a glance and quickly access different aspects of an app without launching it.

The camera system on the new iPhone 14 Pro lineup is upgraded to 48MP to capture high-resolution images with more details. Now, the Halide Mark II app released two new updates to support new capabilities for iOS users.
