Seven design ideas for your new Apple iOS 14 home screen
Apple released the new iOS 14 and many are sharing their revamped phone layouts online.
Apple released their new iOS 14 worldwide on Sep 16, compatible with iPhones 6s and later. One of the more prominent features that comes with this update is the new iPhone’s home screen layout.
Apple users can now add customisable widgets to their home screen. These help display information from specific applications without having to go through the trouble of opening the app itself.
While the main purpose of widgets are for convenience and accessibility, many have taken this as an opportunity to personalise and design their phones.
If you’re overwhelmed by all the possibilities at your fingertips and unsure of where to start, here are some home screen design ideas to get you inspired!
1. Minimalistic
Like keeping things simple? Why not try a minimalistic approach with this plain white design that’s easy on the eyes yet visually appealing.

Adding line art drawings and icons really help tie the whole look together.
2. Colour-code
Too lazy to edit individual app icons but still interested in beautifying your home screen? Try arranging your apps by colour and adding different photo widgets to fit it.
Not only will your apps be easy to find, they will also look really neat!

If you crave consistency and like having a set theme, you could go the extra mile in editing your icons and widgets to have the same pretty colour palette.

3. Retro
Since the retro aesthetic is coming back into trend, why not turn your iPhone into a Windows desktop? It’s sure to confuse and intrigue your friends.

If you want something eye-catching and bright instead, try an unforgettable neon theme instead.

4. Follow a certain aesthetic
There are different aesthetic styles out there, such as cottagecore, dark academia and many more.
Find one that resonates with you and incorporate similar photos from that aesthetic into your home screen.


5. Your favourite celebrities
If you’re a huge fan of music artists or popular influencers, placing their photos and quotes on your phone would be a great way to showcase your love!

6. Movies/TV shows
Many of us are suckers for a good film. That’s why having pictures of characters from your favourite movies or shows would be a great addition.
And incorporating inside jokes and quotes from certain scenes help tie the overall look together.

7. Video games
Another possible idea could be to design your phone like one in a video game. Incorporate icons from your favourite games and turn your phone into pixel paradise.


Hopefully these designs have helped sparked some ideas. Now go forth and turn your iPhone into your aesthetic dream with iOS 14!
