Screen saver on phone

Is it possible for a person’s screensaver photo to sporadically change the photo on its own or does the person have to manually change it?

Hi Pinktiger67,

Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Community. Photo shuffle for your Lock Screen is available with iOS 16 and later. Here's how to change it:

"In the Settings app, tap Wallpaper.
Tap Add New Wallpaper.
Select Photo Shuffle from the top row of options.
On the Photo Shuffle screen, set a frequency (On Tap, On Lock, Hourly, or Daily). Then choose a set of photos that will shuffle as you use your iPhone throughout the day.

The frequency options for Photo Shuffle when you set up multiple photos to rotate as your Lock Screen on iPhone.

5. Tap Done."

Find these steps in the article Change the wallpaper on your iPhone. To find out which devices are compatible with iOS 16, check out iPhone models compatible with iOS 16.

Hope that helps!
