Full Screen Caller ID

I’ve read and watched the three ways and have tried all to create full screen photos for incoming calls..


1- assigning the picture to a contact

2- editing the photo in the contact details

3- Changing a setting in the phone settings


However they are NOT working on my 8+ iOS14.4.


Does anyone have any other instructions to adjust? Or am I s.o.l?


Thanks, I know there are several threads but they all say the same thing, and it seems to work for most. Trying to figure out what/if I’m doing something wrong.

iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 13

All your contacts on your Favourites list are already as full screen.


You need to do this for each and every contact. The process initially may seem weird but works well.

  1. Open a contact
  2. Click Edit
  3. Click Edit below the Picture
  4. Select Edit Photo
  5. Move the Circle around the image (just move randomly, a bit)
  6. Choose Photo
  7. Click Done
  8. Next time when you receive call from this contact, it will be full screen!!!!

need to edit the question... I’m running the iOS 13.5.1


Sravan, thanks for the reply.., however this was one of the setting changes I tried, several times with several contacts to NO avail. So sadly this isn’t does not work for this iOS.


Still searching, as I’m currently unable to download/install the 14.4. Does the new update fully without a doubt support the above changes??


Thanks!!
