Common questions
About Live Wallpaper.
Do live wallpapers work on iOS 16, 17, 18, and 26?
Yes. Wallpaper Hub's live wallpapers work on iPhone 6s and newer, running iOS 16 and later, including iOS 26. On iOS 26 you can additionally pair Wallpaper Hub designs with the new Lock Screen customization options for a fully personalized lock screen.
How do I set a live wallpaper on my iPhone?
Inside Wallpaper Hub, tap any wallpaper marked Live, then tap Save to Photos. Open Settings → Wallpaper → Add New Wallpaper → Photos, select the saved video, and tap Set as Wallpaper Pair. Touch and hold your lock screen to watch the animation play.
What is the Depth Effect on iPhone wallpapers?
Depth Effect is an iOS 16+ feature where the subject of your lock screen wallpaper overlaps the clock, creating a 3D layered look. It works best with wallpapers that have a clear, isolated subject — Wallpaper Hub's Depth Effect collection is composed specifically for this.
