Live Photo Won’t Animate On Lockscreen

Why won't my live photo animate on my lock screen? It's just still. I was able to do it on my iPhone 7, but on my be iPhone SE (2020) it won't.

iPhone SE, iOS 13

Set a Live Photo as wallpaper for the Lock screen

When you set a Live Photo as wallpaper, touch and hold the Lock screen to play the Live Photo—on all iPhone models except iPhone SE (1st generation).

  1. Go to Settings  > Wallpaper > Choose a New Wallpaper.
  2. Do one of the following:
    • Tap Live, then choose a Live Photo.
    • Tap your Live Photos album, then choose a Live Photo (you may need to wait for it to download).
  1. Tap Set, then choose Set Lock Screen or Set Both.
