How to disable change Wallpaper from Lock Screen

when you touch and hold the Lock Screen it lets you customize your wallpaper. BUT the problem is that it’s way too easy to enter this mode by just holding your phone!!


my phone is constantly entering the customize Lock Screen mode when I don’t want it to. We need a way to disable the “touch + hold Lock Screen” to change wallpaper feature. Let us change it in settings. NOT every darn time we accidentally touch the Lock Screen for more than a millisecond. Thank you!

No, it has absolutely nothing to do with an Apple Watch. It's just the way Apple designed iOS. You may find that things are somewhat better if you disable Raise to Wake. Settings>Display & Brightness>Raise to Wake>Off.
