A retro iPhoner setup that goes all the way back. The lock screen wallpaper is a close-up macro of rain on glass, hundreds of grey droplets on a silver surface. On the home screen, every icon is rendered in the old skeuomorphic style: textured, dimensional, shaded like something you could actually touch.
Four pages of icons cover the whole range of the iOS 6 era: a wooden iBooks-style bookshelf, a retro television icon, the old Compass with its parchment-style surround, the original Instagram camera, and the old Maps icon with its road-map styling. The old Weather, Notes, Siri, and Music icons appear exactly as they shipped more than a decade ago. A rain-on-glass wallpaper carries across every page and the lock screen, making the visual continuity between screens unusually consistent.
Page three is the highlight: an iPod classic widget fills the top half of the screen, complete with a scroll wheel and album art from a currently playing track. A Flappy Bird icon sits two rows below it. Further pages bring a currency widget tracking USD, EUR, GBP, and BTC, a skeuomorphic clock and calendar widget, and a green battery readout styled like an old status bar. Modern apps including Duolingo, Discord, Reddit, and Spotify sit alongside the vintage icons without much friction.
Worth copying for iPhoners who miss the era when every icon looked like a real thing, not a flat colored square.
