Lock Screen depth effect not working for Photo Library pics

[Pilot Jones]

I've got an iPhone 8 running the Public Beta right now.

Is anyone's Lock Screen Depth Effect working for photos from the Photo Library?

On my iPhone 8, it works for the in-built wallpapers (Astronomy, iOS 16 default, etc.) but whenever I try to use it on any photos in my library, it doesn't do it even though I see the option for it.

I've also tried it on Portrait Mode shots that were sent to me from newer iPhones (XR, 11 Pro) but even those don't generate a Depth Effect?

Is this a bug or is it because I'm using an older iPhone?

I saw somewhere that it works as long as you do not use any widgets under the clock.

I followed that direction. No widgets under (or even over the time). Still didn’t yield any results unfortunately.

Well it’s not your hardware i dont think, I have 11 Pro and it definitely works.
