    I hate that wallpapers get removed with each version

    The iOS 17, 16, 15, etc wallpapers were really nice. But every update, the last version’s wallpaper just gets thrown away. Why? Do they seriously take up that much space? Or is it some exclusivity thing? It bothers me a lot. Sure, I could download a photo of the old wallpapers, but it won’t...

    iPhone loses app screens

    A funny thing happened while I was on vacation. I usually have three screens of apps on my phone. With no notice, screens two and three went away, leaving me with just the main screen and the "App Library" screen. I changed wallpaper and that seemed to fix it but it happened again, even after...

    Sonoma Wallpaper Settings bug

    Greetings, fellow Macheads, So I did the stupid thing and upgraded to Sonoma right away, instead of waiting for an update or two to smooth out the kinks. I know, I should have known better, blah-blah-lah, but here we are. I like Sonoma a lot. I love the changes to the interface, and my Mac...

    Dynamic (Solar) Wallpaper bug

    I've been using one of the time/location-based dynamic wallpapers (not the new video ones, but the "old" ones that update based on time and latitude/longitude). On Ventura the transitions were buttery smooth. I've upgraded to Sonoma and the transitions are now sharp and jarring. Has anyone else...

    iOS 17 - Live Photos "Motion Not Available" (Lock Screen)

    I know many didn't like Live Photos. But I wanted to try to bring a few back to my lock screen in iOS 17. I simply get this "Motion Not Available - Motion from this Live Photo is not supported as a wallpaper." on these pics. Either some old live photos I've had in the past or a few I just took...

    Is wallpaper appearing as an activity consuming battery under lock screen for anyone else?

    I upgraded to 16.3.1 from 16.1 a few days ago. Since then, I have noticed that the battery usage of my lock screen is higher than it was before. Moreover, if I go onto activity, underneath it states wallpaper, which is never has before. My wallpaper is the same one it's always been, so I don't...

    Wallpaper turned purple after updating to 16.3.1

    I updated yesterday, and after installing 16.3.1 I did a soft reset of my iPhone. Now, the default wallpaper is just a light purple. No other changes to any apps or settings, and when I check the wallpaper in settings, it appears fine. I can change it to other wallpapers if I want. But the...

    Desktop Image Slideshow centred and actual size???

    My desktop image slideshow is designed to show the images at actual size, so quite small. However they are stretched across the entire screen. How do I revert to the small images, centered on the screen? They are all different sizes, but none are "wallpaper"-size.

    Separate Wallpapers for Lock Screen and Home Screen

    Every previous version of iOS let me have a photo for my lock screen and a wallpaper theme for my home screen. With iOS 16, I cannot do this -- if I choose a photo for my lock screen, the photo becomes my home screen as well (with minor customizations available). This is a step backwards. I'm...
