Once this is done, we can follow these steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Open the Settings app on our iPhone.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Go to the &#8220;Wallpaper&#8221; section.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select a new wallpaper on the right side or, if preferred, tap on the currently configured one.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>At the bottom, tap on the &#8220;-&#8221; button next to the camera or flashlight button.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Then, tap on the &#8220;+&#8221; button that appears in its place.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Choose the action you want to assign to that button.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tap on the blue &#8220;OK&#8221; button at the top right.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In step six, we can choose from a wide variety of options. From quick access to the <strong>Translate app to the Home app, Calculator, enable or disable dark mode, the magnifying glass<\/strong> or Shazam&#8217;s music recognition. Access alarms, enable or disable airplane mode, enter Siri&#8217;s Remote for Apple TV, open any app through Shortcuts, run one of them, mute the phone, and much more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The truth is that being able to create a quick note from the home screen, start recording an audio note, or open any installed app on our iPhone with just the press of a button is really interesting. Between those two buttons, the ones we can add as widgets at the top and the action button on the iPhone 15 with the Pro surname, there are <strong>several actions that we can carry out with just one button<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"sc-card-program\">\r\n  <div class=\"sc-card-program__body\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row clearfix\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-logo\">\r\n        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__img\" alt=\"Apple Support\" src=\"https:\/\/images.sftcdn.net\/images\/t_app-icon-m\/p\/952ecafe-c8f3-11e6-99be-00163ed833e7\/3724861761\/apple-support-logo\" width=\"100px\" height=\"100px\">\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-title\">\r\n        <span class=\"sc-card-program__title\">Apple Support<\/span>\r\n        <a class=\"sc-card-program__button sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/apple-support.en.softonic.com\/iphone\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Download<\/a>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-rating\">\r\n        <svg class=\"rating-score__content\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" version=\"1.1\" x=\"0\" y=\"0\" viewbox=\"0 0 50 50\" enable-background=\"new 0 0 50 50\" xml:space=\"preserve\"><path class=\"rating-score__background rating-score--good\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><path class=\"rating-score__value rating-score__value--0\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-dashoffset=\"0\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><text class=\"rating-score__number\" content=\"\" text-anchor=\"middle\" transform=\"matrix(1 0 0 1 25 31.0837)\" data-auto=\"app-user-score\"><\/text><\/svg>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <span class=\"sc-card-program__description\"><\/span>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__bigpic\" src=\"\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\">\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <a class=\"sc-card-program__link track-link sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/apple-support.en.softonic.com\/iphone\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><\/a>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The ability to change the buttons on the lock screen in iOS 18 undoubtedly represents <strong>a very significant step towards the customization<\/strong> of Apple devices.
