Lock Screen issues

After upgrading to iOS 16.5, my Lock Screen wallpaper disappears every morning when I boot up, then reappears about halfway through the day. What gives?

iPhone 12 Pro, iOS 16

Hi jimwagner23,


Thanks for that info. Let's test this using another wallpaper, either a photo or a pre-installed wallpaper, and see if the issue persists.


If it does, try force restarting your iPhone and test again. Here is how to do that: Force restart iPhone - Apple Support



  1. "Press and quickly release the volume up button.
  2. Press and quickly release the volume down button.
  3. Press and hold the side button.
  4. When the Apple logo appears, release the side button."


We hope this helps.


Cheers!

Hey jimwagner23,


Are you having this issue with the built-in wallpaper, photo you took with your device, or third-party wallpaper you downloaded from another source?


Let's test out different wallpapers including the ones you have on your Photos app or the built-in wallpaper, and see if you experience this issue. Also, try restarting your device to see if it helps: Restart your iPhone


We'll be looking forward to the results!


Best regards.
