Digital imagery intended for use as a backdrop on Apple’s iOS 11 operating system is a customizable element that allows individuals to personalize their electronic devices. These images, often referred to as backgrounds or screensavers, are displayed on the home screen and lock screen of iPhones and iPads running iOS 11. Examples range from abstract designs and nature photography to artistic renderings and user-created visuals.
The selection of appropriate digital imagery enhances the user experience by providing visual appeal and reflecting individual preferences. Historically, operating systems have offered limited customization. The ability to choose from a wide array of visuals adds a layer of personalization, which contributes to user satisfaction and engagement. Furthermore, optimized visual elements reduce eye strain and improve readability of icons and text on the screen.
