How to Change Lock Screen Widget

Hi,

Is it possible to change the lock screen widget(s)? I am trying to make the clock smaller, and wanted to hopefully make some other modifications, but I can't find settings to do so anywhere...hopefully I'm just missing it.

My Pixel is on Verizon, bought from Verizon.

Thanks,
Matt
 
Hi Matt,

Since the introduction of Android 5.0 Lollipop, Android has not natively supported widgets on the lock screen. That unfortunately means that you won't really have any options to customize your lockscreen aside from enabling/disabling notifications and setting the wallpaper.

There may be some third-party lockscreen apps that could satisfy your need for customization - but I haven't used any in years, as they weren't terribly reliable in my experience.

Cheers,
