Wallpaper and Lock Screen


i am not happy with the customization of my Lock Screen - I tuck my phone under my arm, and it asks me to change my wallpaper ugh I have it the way I want it thanks

How can I get it to stop. It’s really a pain, my hands are full, I can’t turn my phone off and back on- if and when I want to change the wallpaper I will do so.

I hate this screen!

iPhone 13, iOS 16

Yes, chellyTB12, this is annoying and happens to me all the time while carrying my phone in my hand and my palm/thumb wakes up the phone.


ChrisJ4203 - your response was not helpful. Although a true statement, you did not acknowledge or address the issue raised, and only repeated what the original poster already stated/indicated.

This is from your applying pressure on the screen while the screen is awake. That takes you to the wallpaper customization screen. You can press the side button on the phone to put it to sleep before tucking it under your arm and applying that pressure. You should also be able to delete any screen you may have created by accident so it will not appear when you press on the screen.
