Give Your iPhone a Whole New Aesthetic with These Tips and Tricks

An iPhone is just about everyone’s must-have accessory. It also means that lots of people have the same looking phone, and it can be hard to get a unique look.

But, did you know that there are lots of little ways to make your iPhone unique and give it a new look without getting a totally different phone? The possibilities apply to the outside of your phone and how it looks when you open it and start using it.

Here’s how to give your phone a total makeover to make it more aesthetic with a few simple changes.

New or Custom Phone Case

The most prominent part of your phone is the outside, so what better way to rejuvenate its look good than starting with the case?

Not only does a case protect your phone, but it also allows you to make a real style statement and even tie it in with your overall aesthetic.

Look for pastels, botanicals, and weather-themed prints to stay on-trend. There are tons of cute iPhone 12 cases available to buy online, so shop around and find something that suits you.

For a really unique look, design a custom case. You could even consider getting a selection of cases to change your look and ensure your phone always matches the occasion or outfit.

Add Accessories

Accessories provide the perfect opportunity to update your phone’s look while being practical as well.

Choose from a range of phone rings to make holding larger models more comfortable, straps, wallet-cases, camera lenses, and screen protectors to give your phone a unique look.

Add Widgets and Custom Icons

Now that we’ve dealt with the outside of your phone, it’s time to think about how you can give it an aesthetic makeover on the inside.

If you’re running iOS 14, you’re able to change and edit widgets to make your home screen more aesthetic. Simply hold down the home screen until the apps jiggle’, click the plus icon in the top left corner, and start creating widgets.

You can also use Apple’s new ‘Shortcuts’ app to create custom icons for your apps on the home screen. It totally transforms your phone and gives you a unique look.

Download a New Wallpaper

Pinterest and Etsy are great for purchasing instantly downloadable wallpapers, or there are thousands of free options out there that you find with a simple Google search.

If you’ve edited your icons or added widgets, make sure your wallpaper matches in colour or theme! You can create a serene screen with strong aesthetics.

Have a ‘Clear-Out’

When it comes to updating the look of your home screen, minimalism is key.

Take a good look at all the apps on your phone and delete those you no longer use. If you have many apps that you use occasionally, create a ‘stack’ (on iOS 14 – create a folder on older iOS software). It will keep all related apps together under one icon, rather than clogging up your screen with lots of little icons.

You should also adjust your notifications so that you only get notifications you want to receive. It seems like a small thing, but it will make your phone look so much more organized, clean, and fresh.

As you can see, there are tons of ways to update your iPhone to give it a new look, keep it on-trend, and make it more aesthetically pleasing. Try out these tips and tricks to see what an impact a few simple tweaks can make.
