Lock Screen wallpaper is blurry regardless of settings

Hi. The new wallpaper system seems to have glitched. No matter what photo I select, the image is blurred (as per the Home Screen option to blur) have been into settings in wallpaper and it cannot be edited. Anyone else found this?


thanks.

Hello PeteMitchell84,


Welcome to Apple Support Communities! It sounds like you need help with the Wallpaper on your iPhone XS. We completely understand why you'd reach out, and are happy to help.


Does this happen on any wallpaper picture that you choose? What happens if you go to Settings > Wallpaper > Customize > Blur and make sure that is off? This feature may cause what you're seeing.


If changing the picture doesn't help, nor does what we suggested, we would recommend reaching out to Apple support for next steps:


Contact Apple for support and service


Cheers!
