changing lock screen wallpaper iphone 16

I change the lock screen wallpaper to one of my own photos, but the first time the phone sleeps, the wallpaper changes back to the default. Is there any way to lock the settings?

Iphone 14 lockscreen wallpaper changing I recent switched from an iphone xr to the iphone 14 pro max. I love most of the new features, but cant stand the wallpaper changing from lock screen keybind. I leave wallpapers the same for long times so if I wanted them to change I’d do it manually and fine going through the settings. But half the time when just trying to open my phone I hold for too long and instead of just going to desktop and unlocking it thinks I’m trying to change my wallpaper from the lock screen. Or sometimes it just seems to do it automatically even tho I barely touched it. Is there a way to turn off this feature?

My iphone 14 pro max wallpaper won't stay assigned I have a new iPhone 14 Pro Max running iOS 16.3. The wallpaper that I want it to stay on changes every night to a pure black wallpaper. I go into Settings > Wallpaper and assign what I want and it works until around 10 PM and switches to the pure black wallpaper. Every morning I have to manually reset the wallpaper. Am I missing something on how to do this?

Yes, many times. But the phone has a mind of it's own and keeps changing back to whatever I have set as the first set.
