Hello BruceIan,

Thank you for the question. I understand that you are not able to scale your wallpaper on your iPhone. You can turn on reduce motion to allow you to adjust the zoom of the wallpaper:

When setting a wallpaper in Settings > Wallpapers & Brightness, the photo or image will be slightly zoomed and cannot be scaled to fit to the screen.

You can change this behavior by enabling Settings > General > Accessibility > Reduce Motion.

You can find the full article here:

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Best,

THis is strange... I do not have "reduce Motion" option on the Settings -> General -> Accessibility screen. Can you confirm the path and suggest why I do not have that option?

thx,

bruce

Hi BruceIan,

Thank you for the additional information. If you are using an iPhone 4, you won't have the option to Reduce Motion under Accessibility.

Due to the nature of your issue or question you may find more information by using another one of Apple's support resources - https://getsupport.apple.com/GetproductgroupList.action

All the best,

Sheila M.
