Wallpaper and Limited Selection of Photos

Why do I have only 50 photo shuffles for wallpaper? I want to have more. Why is Apple limiting the numbers here? Fix this, please.

iphone wallpaper shuffle same pictures I set the iPhone to shuffle the wallpaper, ticking categories "Nature" and "Cities". My Photos library contains almost 20k pictures. But somehow the number of different pictures it shows me on the Lock Screen are much reduced. Perhaps 20 or 30 images that keep coming back. Any ideas on how to increase this / see more pictures? Thanks!

Photo Shuffle Limit defeats the purpose of Photo Shuffle. Why would photo shuffle limit be 50? The purpose for it, is to pull from so many photos, so that it'll surprise you every time you get a new wallpaper or a new quote. From a limit of 50, they become familiar very quick, especially when it changes 'at lock', and the magic is gone just as quick. It defeats the whole purpose of this feature. Please fix, it gets more ridiculous the longer it stays like this. (Also, there should be a something of a "weight" to an image, so it can appear more frequently. Right now bypassing it is done by just having additional copies, which seems redundant, but such a simple feature is missing. Cool.)

Lock screen wallpaper shuffle limited to 50 images I love photo shuffle to rotate lock screen wallpapers. But why did Apple limit it to 50 images? What if a user has 51, 80, or 150 favourite images? This arbitrary limit seems unnecessary and I fail to understand its purpose.

You're not addressing Apple here and we, just users like you, are not aware of Apple future plans/designs/decisions.

If you'd like, please submit your request/comment to Apple directly, using this form:--> Apple – Product Feedback - iPhone

Thanks and regards
