One of the aspects of our mobile that we see the most throughout the day is the lock screen, in which we check notifications and know the time. This makes its aesthetics very important and can be the difference between being comfortable with our smartphone or hating it. A very simple way to renew the style of the mobile is to customize the lock screen , something that takes a few seconds and has many options in Huawei.
The EMUI customization layer has been working on device customization options for many years to allow users to choose what we like the most. With the steps that we are going to show you, surely your mobile stops looking the same and for those who see it it may even seem new.
Customize the lock screen on Huawei
To get to personalize and adapt the lock screen to our liking , we just have to enter the Huawei mobile settings and then tap on “Main screen and wallpaper”. This will give us way to a variety of options that we are going to explain to you one by one, so that you know the possibilities it offers us and everything we can do, but we will also add extra options that are not available here.
Change EMUI lock style with themes
The first great customization block that we find is called Themes, one of the points to which Huawei gives more value. Here we can choose a totally different style from our smartphone, which also applies to the lock screen. This allows you to choose new lock styles for your Huawei mobile in a matter of seconds.
We can choose between those that are already assigned to our mobile or we slide to the bottom of the screen and enter “More topics”. This will take us to the app integrated in EMUI where we can choose from a wide variety of free themes if we choose this category. We choose the one we like the most, we see its preview and then we download and install it from the bottom button of the screen.
Customize the Always on display
Although the Always on display is not really the lock screen, it is a concept that can be easily confused. In this case, it is the screen that is activated on smartphones with an Amoled panel and where the information is constantly displayed. To personalize it, we have at our disposal a schedule to be programmed and a variety of styles.
We can decide on one of the styles that come in our mobile or touch on “More styles” to choose it just like before the app integrated in EMUI. There is also the possibility of customizing Huawei’s Always on display mode with a photograph or design made by ourselves.
Change lock covers on Huawei
One of the options that many users like the most is to be able to change the wallpaper automatically in Huawei , this can be done from the “Change covers” section, where we have the option to activate it with a simple button. We can choose where these covers come from by choosing Leica photographs, from our mobile or from predefined styles.
But there is also the alternative option of choosing a static cover of our mobile or Huawei themes. Choosing the final option “More wallpapers” will take us to many free and paid options.
Put signature on Huawei lock screen
One of the extra options to customize the lock screen of Huawei phones is to put our name or the one we want. This allows us to easily identify the mobile and add an important way to recognize it in case we lose it. You just have to slide on the personalization screen to the option “Lock screen signature” and then write it.
Add double clock on lock screen
The last possibility of customization that EMUI 11 offers us for now on Huawei phones is to set a double digital clock on the lock screen. To activate it, we have to go to Settings> System and updates> Date and time. Here we can activate the option “Double clock”. When changing the local city for a different one than the one we are in and as long as they have a different time, we will see both local times on the lock screen.
This is especially useful for those who have family and friends in another part of the world who want to communicate with them without having to do calculations to know what time it will be.
