Unfortunately The iPhone SE 2020 Model does not currently Support The Live Wallpaper feature found on most other iPhones, if you need information on how to check out how to set your wallpaper on general Check Out This Article https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT200285, Hope this Helps, Have A Great Day!
It is weird. You can have a live wallpaper, but you cant set a live wallpaper on the se. I had a live wallpaper set on my iPhone 7 plus and i had it backed up. I used the backup on my SE(2020) and the live wallpaper works. It seems as if they want to restrict the use of live wallpapers on the se for some reason.
Disappointing to be honest, I don’t understand why Apple decided to give live wallpapers to every phone but the new SE, it doesn’t make sense as it is supposed to be an update compared to the last SE. Won’t be buying another phone from Apple any time soon as it was something I was looking forward to.
That document only references Iphone SE 1 and 2 and does not address iphone se 3. My daughter is quite disappointed to see this was left out for the iPhone SE 3 as she upgraded to this from an iphone 7 and thought that since the official Apple support document did not include it in the model list exempted that it would be able to use it. Seems like a very petty business decision when the phone still costs $670 CDN to not enable that option. If the iPhone 6 can do it.....
It works on my iPhone SE 2020 but it was a wallpaper carried over from iPhone 8. I won't change it as I won't get the live wallpaper effect back
Hopefully the effect comes back in the next update
iPhone 11 has Haptic Touch (like SE 2) instead of 3D Touch, and it still has live wallpapers.
I honestly think it’s a disgrace how the 2nd generation IPhone SE does not have live wallpaper access like apple step up your game
Why is having Face Id so important for life wallpapers?!? I mean the iphone 7 and 8 also had the ability for live wallpapers and these phones don‘t have Face Id. I can‘t believe it! I hope you guys will add it in the next update.
i was so excited to buy the new iphone Se 2020 because I thought it had live wallpaper like the rest of the phones. only to find out it doesn’t and i’m kinda dissatisfied and disappointed. I hope you can add live wallpaper not only for me but for everyone else in a future update. thanks
Why does it not have live wallpapers, I was really looking forward to finally have it like all my friends.. since I went from the 6 to Se 2020... I was really disappointed and sad when I saw that it didn’t have live wallpaper, it should be possible to add that in the next update. Since almost everybody wants it in the new update why not add it?
I am so angry I was looking forward to getting a live wallpaper. I spent ages trying to set one and then found out that it doesn’t support it. I wouldn’t have bought this phone if I had known I thought it was meant to be like iPhone 11 processor!!
So just so it’s clear, I had recently gotten the iPhone SE 2020 and at first was able to use Live Wallpapers, but after awhile it just stopped working, my phone is currently on the latest update and the live wallpapers option is still not available. I don’t know when they will fix this but it does have the ability to use Live Wallpaper.
Apple has already written the code for live wallpaper using haptic touch. They have released it for the Iphone 11, the Iphone 11 has the same processor as the SE (2). Therefore meaning the Iphone SE (2) should be able to process and function properly whilst using a live wallpaper.
From what i know, only iDevices that have force touch can properly use the live photo feature. When you transfer, it works for haptic but officially, only iPhones with force touch have live wallpapers
But why? There seems to be no reason. Sure, the ORIGINAL iPhone SE couldn’t do it. But the new SE has Haptic Touch like the iPhone 11, with the same processor.
So why no live wallpapers, Apple?
