Enjoy More Photos with a Lock Screen Gallery

June 24, 2023 By Melissa Shanhun Leave a Comment

If you are reading this post, I'm almost certain you have a few thousand photos on your phone. Instead of feeling overwhelmed by all the captured moments, why not try one of these 5 easy ways to make those photos more visible in your life.

Let's start off with one you might already be doing...

Here's how to make your iPhone a portable gallery!

  1. Wake your ‌iPhone‌ and unlock it.
  2. Press and hold on the Lock Screen until the wallpaper gallery appears.
  3. Tap the blue + button in the bottom-right corner of the screen.
  4. Select Photo Shuffle from the wallpaper menu.
  5. Tap some photos in your photo library to include in the shuffle, then tap Add. I like to just browse my favourites.
  6. Tap the ellipsis button (the three encircled dots) in the bottom-right corner of the screen.
  7. Tap Shuffle Frequency, then choose from Daily, Hourly, On Wake, and On Tap.
  8. Tap Done in the top-right corner to finish, then tap your new Photo Shuffle wallpaper to select it from the gallery.

Your new shuffle wallpaper will now be live. Tap or wake your ‌iPhone‌'s screen to change the photo, or wait for it to change automatically, depending on your chosen option.

Got an Android?

There's lots of different options depending on your phone, but here's a quick way that will hopefully work on your phone!

Go to Settings > Display > Wallpaper > Gallery. From there you can choose 15 pictures you want to include in the slideshow and set the duration for each slide.

Enjoy your new lock screen!
