Perspective zoom for wallpaper

I’m in iOS 13.3 (latest update as of Jan 24, 2020) and I can’t find a way to disable the perspective zoom/parallax function on wallpapers. Previous versions allowed you to disable it when selecting your wallpaper from a saved photo. I would like to use a saved photo without losing so much of the edges of the image due to auto zooming. Any ideas?

How to enable Perspective Zoom in iOS 16 Lock Screen and Home Screen backgrounds? Yesterday I updated my iPhone 12 Pro Max to iOS 16 and after that I started playing around with the new Lock Screen and Home Screen background functionalities, I created several customized backgrounds but I was unable to find how to enable Perspective Zoom. I really love Perspective Zoom and I started using it aver since it was introduced in iOS 7. Do I need to enable this functionality somewhere else in the settings? or is Perspective Zoom not available anymore in iOS 16?

Disable "Add New Wallpaper" from iPhone lock screen The new Change your wall paper from the Lock screen is the MOST annoying addition that Apple has ever created! I try to open my phone and find that the phone wants to change wallpapers! It may be great for some people, but I should be able to disable it in Settings! If I want my phone to look different, I want to explicitly tell it what it should look like! I hate having it assume I want to play with looks when I am trying to answer a phone call, or look up information! How do I make it stop trying to change wallpaper on the lock screen, PERMANENTLY!

You should be able to set Perspective Zoom to OFF once your saved photo is selected from your photo album. Below is an example of what the screen should look like.

Choose the center icon at the bottom to turn Perspective Zoom off and then scale the image to fit the screen.
