AIM tweak enables iOS 16 Lock Screen style on iOS 15

iOS 16 introduced a new style for the Lock Screen adding an option to change the look of the time font and placing some useful widgets just under it. AIM tweak copies the iOS 16 Style of Time, Date, and a few widgets displayed on the Lock Screen. Recently AIM tweak was updated to support rootless jailbreaks running iOS 15 and iOS 16.

Add AIM Repository to your favorite package manager.

What is AIM?

AIM is a free jailbreak tweak that brings to iOS 13 – iOS 15 the look of Lock Screen offered by iOS 16. Use this tweak to manipulate the style of time, and date displayed on your Lock Screen. What's more, AIM tweak comes with 3 widgets included that are fully functional. The free version supports now rootless Dopamine and Palera1n jailbreaks on iOS 15.

After installation, AIM tweak adds a dedicated preference pane to the Settings app from where you can configure all available options to your liking. There are separate configuration pages for the time, date, widgets, and custom text. From here you can also toggle the tweak on and off.

The tweak is compatible with all jailbreaks released since iOS 13. It also supports the latest jailbreaks released for iOS 15 therefore you can run it on XinaA15 Jailbreak compatible with iOS 15.0 – iOS 15.1.1 (A12-A15), and Palera1n Jailbreak released for iOS 15.0 – iOS 15.7.1 (A7-A11).

When you will enable the tweak some elements may overlap on the Lock Screen. No worries, the developer included some sliders allowing you to position all elements horizontally and vertically. There is also a reset preferences button, and the respring button to apply all changes.

The tweak allows yo to set up how the time looks like. Toggle the text on or off, set the format and alignment, change the background and text color, define the font size, type (rail, stencil, rounded, black), and font type from all installed fonts including 4 original Font Time from iOS 16.

AIM can also customize the date displayed on the Lock Screen. It offers the same options that are already mentioned in time customization including format, alignment, style, color, custom font selection, and positioning. Additionally, you can display next to the date actual weather with icon, temperature, location, condition, or upcoming alarm with a clock icon.

Tips: If weather doesn't show on the Lock Screen widget created by AIM tweak, add City/Location in Weather App. This will fix the issue. The battery widget on the Lock Screen can activate the low battery mode when taped.

On the widget's configuration page there are obviously settings related to displayed widgets. The developer included 3 widgets that can be used with AIM tweak. There is a weather widget with low and height temp values (can be displayed as a circle or a list), a sunrise, sunset, or alarm widget. Here you have controls to change the widgets color, label, size and positioning.

In the tweaks other section there is a bonus allowing you to change the “Swipe up to open” text to any value, set its color, and shadow, or enable the animation.

AIM tweak was works on all modern jailbreaks released for iOS 13.0 up to iOS 15.7.1. On top of that you can run the tweak on the latest Palera1n Jailbreak for iOS 15 – iOS 16.2 released for A9-A11 iDevices, and XinaA15 Jailbreak for iOS 15 – 15.1.1 on A12-A15.

AIM can also hide stock elements such as charging animation, and Quick Action. What's more, the tweak is compatible with LastLook, the wonderfully designed always-on display tweak for iOS 13 – iOS 15. You can also display AIM widgets on LastLook Lock Screen.
