The iPhone has a Focus mode that lets you create routines so that you only contact certain people or only use certain apps at specific times. Focus not only restricts you from opening other apps, but also lets you set a custom home screen so that only a specific page or set of pages is displayed when Focus is activated. This essentially gives you the ability to have different home screens for different Focus modes on your iPhone.
Ultimate Guide to Setting iPhone Home Screen and Focus Mode with iOS 17!
In this post, we'll help you set up and use custom home screens for the different focus modes you've created on your iPhone.
Before you go ahead and create a custom home screen for when a focus is activated, you should understand how this works. You can only select your existing home screen pages to add to a focus's custom pages; you cannot create an entirely new custom page that only displays when a focus is selected.
Although only selected pages will be displayed when a Focus is active, these pages will also be displayed on your main home screen when no Focus mode is selected. This means that unless you manually hide pages that you select to display during a Focus mode, all of these pages will be visible on the main home screen when you do not have a Focus mode activated.
