Is there a way to retrieve the photo I was previously using as my home background? IOS 16 wiped it out when I tried the new lock screen features. It is a photo of my children when they were young that is no longer on my phone. This is a very bad "feature" of this IOS 16 update.
iPhone 13, iOS 16
Hi, michaarnold.
The only way to restore that is if you've got a copy of the photo stored elsewhere. For information on transferring photos for future reference, check here: Transfer photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or PC - Apple Support
Cheers.
This is the worst update I have ever encountered. Not only do I not find an option since you changed my lock screen but now my clock display is huge as if I’m blind and my lock screen photo went away and if I choose another photo, it’s just a great big blur of color or it just turns black I really don’t appreciate somebody’s doing this to my phone. That was already the way that I wanted it. Very very unhappy with the
Home screen background photo removed when lock screen updated.
