Hello Leighallen7118,


Thanks for posting in the Apple Support Communities. We're happy to look into this with you.


Is it possible that you have restrictions enabled that would prevent you from making these types of changes to your device? If you're not sure, follow the path below and review Screen Time for possible restrictions.


  1. Open Settings
  2. Tap Screen Time
  3. Select Content & Privacy Restrictions
  4. Remove any restrictions that appear to hinder your ability to change your Wallpaper and/or Widgets.


Keep us posted on how it goes.


Best regards.
