Ive tried everything I can to stop the lockscreen wallpaper from blurring but no matter what I do the only thing that “solves” it is if the photo is zoomed in - (which we already know)
I’ve looked through multiple threads of people trying to answer this question but usually the links they provide aren’t actual answers.
iPhone 11, iOS 18
There is a simple solution. Take the photo you want to use as your lock screen wallpaper. Tap the edit bars on the bottom. Then tap Crop. Then at the top the third to the left icon is a box in a box, which you should tap. Now, on the row above the Styles - Adjust - Crop - Clean Up are Origianl, Freeform, etc. Swipe that from right to left till you get to Wallpaper. Tap Wallpaper, then done at the top right.
Now when you go to choose this photo as your lock screen photo, you won't get a blur at the top.
From what I've found, this was a feature introduced in iOS 17, which can blur the top of your wallpaper if the photo is too short or zoomed out too much. If you follow lobsterghost1's sage advice, you can change your photo into the exact and proper aspect ratio for a wallpaper, which should appear normally.
Thanks lobsterghost1, you taught me something new today!

You're welcome. And great job on the Mural, BTW!
Has there been a fix yet for the wallpaper blurring on the lockscreen?
