Changing iPhone wallpaper without making a new lock screen set

Hi! Is it possible to change a lock-screen and wallpaper photo on iPhone without having to make a new lock-screen set and repeat the setting up of my widgets? It's quite annoying to make a new set for each photo I want to change every time, to be honest. When I try to customise my lock screen, I don't see a change photo option. My iOS is up-to-date on iPhone 17 Pro.


I hope there is a kind soul that will help me resolve my confusion. Thanks in advance!


iPhone 17 Pro, iOS 26
