How do I change the color of the clock and other icons at the top of my Home Screen?

The background I’m using has white in those areas and I need to manually set it to black since the iPhone lacks the ability to figure it out.

iPhone 12 mini, iOS 16

How to change my iPhone's clock color? So I have a mostly white background on my Home Screen which can make telling the time or Wi-Fi status, etc. quite difficult since that is also white. Is there any way to change the top info to black? Even in dark mode it stays white. With app names, if you have a white background they automatically add some sort of shadow so it’s readable but not with that top info. Whenever I open phone settings, all that information (time, Wi-Fi and network) changes to black to accommodate the white background on light mode so why not with the wallpaper?

Information colour at top of iPhone lock screen Right now, the colour of all the little icons at the top of my lock screen on my iPhone are in white. But, the photo that I have on the lock screen is almost white at the top. So, I would like to change all those little icons to black. But I cannot find out how. Is it possible to do this? (I know that I am able to change the time and date to black, but that’s not what I want to do.)

That looks nothing like a Home Screen. That is a Lock Screen. This doesn’t help me even in the slightest.
