Here’s the yearly share of my iPhone home screen.
The biggest change I’ve customized it to always use the dark icons, even during the day. The Rivian, AP News, and Home Assistant apps all claim prominent spots on the first page and a few groups moved around.

Not much different than last year and I think I’ve deleted more apps than acquired new ones. The Lions app has gotten a spot on the home screen. Is anyone triggered by the battery status?

This year I switched from Golfshot to a Shot Scope watch, but since it’s out of golf season, the app moved from the home screen in to the Sports group. I think the only other big change is the wallpaper.

Not shown here, but during the golf season, the Golfshot app does move over to the bottom row on screen 1. The noticeable changes this year are:

A year ago, I posted a screenshot of the home screen on my iPhone 7 Plus. Might as well make this a yearly thing. Not much has changed with my app usage though. Here’s the home screen on my iPhone X.
This may be the first time since iOS added app groups that I have a 2nd page.
These are some augmented reality apps I wanted to try. I’ll get around to filing them into a group soon because this second screen is bugging me.
The replacement came in for my shattered YI 4K Action Camera touchscreen. I was surprised it only took 10 days to get here from Shenzhen, China.
I followed this YouTube video, even though mine isn’t the newer 4K+ version of the camera. The only difference I noticed was the type of connector for the shutter.
I made one mistake, as you can see below, cracking the front cover above the lens. It won’t affect the performance, so not a big deal.
I wasn’t nearly as fast as the guy in the video, but I did it in less than an hour. Easy peasy compared to replacing the screen on an iPhone, which I will never attempt again.
I had my new YI Action Camera in one of those strap bags on my back today at Maker Faire Detroit and must have bumped into something. 😦 Hopefully it’s not too expensive for a new screen and easy to replace.
Update: Roughly $70 for a like-new replacement screen on eBay. Apparently it’s pretty easy to replace.
