Hi chloerxseex,


Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. We understand you're experiencing an issue with a Live Photo when you set it as a wallpaper for your Lock Screen. We're happy to help.


We recommend testing with a Live Photo that isn't taken from a FaceTime call to see if this issue persists. See how here: Set a Live Photo as wallpaper on iPhone


Let us know how that goes, thanks.
