I'd like to change the digital clock widget appearance on my iPhone 16e Home Screen. I do not want to change the widget to show an analog clock face; I'd like to change the digital clock to show white (or another color) numbers on a black background. (I am autistic and have extreme light sensitivity; too much white light is very bothersome.) Thanks.
iPhone 16e, iOS 18

"white (or another color) numbers on a black background".
I just checked using an iPhone 11 with iOS 18.5:
There were only two digital clock-face widgets available, and both had black numbers on white.
If you want to check:
Touch and hold the widget or an empty spot on the home screen till the apps jiggle.
Tap Edit in the top left corner of the screen
Tap Add widget .... then you can swipe left or right to view all the available clock widgets.
If you want to let Apple know your needs, you can send a feature request to Apple.
(You could include a link to this discussion thread if you like.)
