Live Photo Wallpaper not working

I cant get my Live Photo wallpaper to work correctly. If I am in the preview they animate just as they should if i tap and hold the screen. However, once I set the wallpaper on my lockscreen I cant get them to show animations. When I press and hold the Lock Screen it just goes black.

iPhone 12, iOS 14

Hi chyna82,


We understand you're having some trouble with Live Photos as wallpaper, is that right?


Do the default Live wallpapers work as expected for you when one of them are set?


Was the Live Photo you're setting as your wallpaper captured on the same iPhone, shared to you, or was it synced or transferred from another device?


We look forward to hearing back from you!
