Blurry Wallpaper top

Ever since updating to IOS17,

whenever I try to scale my wallpapers to fit the screen the top of the screen gets blurry and ruins the wallpaper. I truly believe this is a software issue and hope Apple can fix this or simply give us the option to have it blurred vs not.

iPhone XR, iOS 17

See this link. I believe you are using Depth Effect on your Lock Screen Wallpaper --> Create a custom iPhone Lock Screen - Apple Support

If you tried everything in the article link I provided, I'm afraid I don't have more suggestions, other than to contact Apple Support for help. If you have an Apple Store near you, you could schedule an appointment at the Genius Bar. But don't even try to do that tomorrow. Apple Stores throughout the world will be delivering new iPhone 15 models to people who preordered them and the Apple Store will be virtually impossible to get any help then.
