Why is my lock screen image just a black background rather than the image I set for it?

I’ve been trying to configure some focuses on my iPhone to organise and make my life easier, particularly when I’m gambling. Whilst doing this one of my images won’t make itself visible on Lock Screen, it’s just black. When I change it to something different it works. The image worked for about 5-10 minutes and then just went black. And also the background on the home screen blurs itself even though I made sure to uncheck the blur option when setting my backgrounds. Any help fixing this would be highly appreciated. I’ve attached some pics of my problem. The background for my Home Screen shows briefly whilst unlocking the phone too which is odd.

iPhone 14 Plus

I managed to fix it by deleting the focus itself and starting again. For some reason the focus replaced the backgrounds for black screen on Lock Screen and blurred image on Home Screen.


Thanks for your reply though 😎
