Photo shuffle takes only few photos

I want to use Photo Shuffle in wallpaper settings. I choose Album option and select album with 4000 photos. But iPhone takes only 16 photos from album and uses these 16 photos for wallpaper. I expect that all 4000 photos should used. How can I setup photo shuffle from all photos in album?

iPhone 13 Pro Max, iOS 18

It is currently not possible. When we select an album for the photo shuffle, Photos is picking some of the photos , where it can find interesting objects and crops the selected photos centered around the object, then stores a copy for the photo shuffle. For example, landscape photos will be cropped to Portrait aspect ratio. This would need a lot of extra storage for 3000 photos.
