I've heard that a phone lock screen can tell you a lot about the person. So, I'm curious.

This is mine. I've been playing Octopatch Traveler recently and I started out playing as H'aanit so I decided to have her as my lock screen. I love the art style of this game.

Like with all my devices, I will try to set a wallpaper that I took, usually from a trip. Each device has its own wallpaper to differentiate them and to remind me of different places I've been.

Here's my lock screen where I took a photo of a small roadside garden while I was in Hervey Bay, Queensland.

Just the “Nature” collection from iOS. I love oceans so it’s mainly oceans & seas from all places. (And occasionally snowy mountains)

Just some default wallpaper. I have never really cared about the wallpaper. I just pick anything that doesn’t distract.

I suppose it tells I’m a boring person.

Pure plack background with centered off-white text in the Fira Code font saying:

A WISE
PERSON
ONCE SAID
NOTHING

I have created this wallpaper specifically for the scenario that others look at it.

The defect on the lower edge of Jupiter is me blacking out my email; the original image is clean.

Every time I turn on the screen it’s a different nature pic from my photos. It’s nice to get the memories and there’s no identifying photos of people.
