Download the Carolina Panthers cellphone lock screen schedules that every fan needs

The Panthers kick off the NFL season with a Thursday night game against the Denver Broncos, and for the second year in a row CharlotteFive has created a cellphone lock screen schedule so you won’t miss a minute of the action.

With one of these three images on your phone’s lock screen, you’ll know exactly when the Panthers are playing* without having to look it up.

*Game times and TV coverage are subject to change later in the season because of the NFL’s Flexible Scheduling system. We’ll try to change that if/when that happens.

Here’s how it works: 

(1) Hold your finger on the schedule image, then tap “Save Image.”

(2) Go to your photos/gallery and tap on the schedule picture you just downloaded to bring it up.

(3) On an iPhone, there’s a tiny box on the bottom left. Tap it and there will be a bunch of different options. For most Android users, you’ll need to tap the “menu” or equivalent button on your phone, but it should bring up the same options.

(4) For iPhone: On the bottom set of options, scroll to the right until you see “Use as Wallpaper” and tap that option. For Android: One of the menu options should be “Set as” or something similar. Choose “Lock screen.”

(5) You may have to adjust the position of the schedule a little bit to get the first game just under the time/day on the lock screen. For iPhone: Turn Perspective Zoom off.

(6) For iPhone: Touch Set. Then touch Set Lock Screen. For Android: Hit “Save” or “OK.”
