On iPod touch, choose an image or photo as wallpaper for the Lock Screen or Home Screen. You can choose from dynamic and still images.

Select one of your own photos (tap an album, then tap the photo).
To reposition your selected image, pinch open to zoom in on it, then drag the image with your finger to move it. Pinch closed to zoom back out.
Tap to turn on Perspective Zoom (available with some wallpaper choices), which makes your wallpaper seem to “move” when you change your viewing angle.
Note: The Perspective Zoom option doesn’t appear if Reduce Motion is turned on (in Settings > Accessibility > Motion). See Reduce or stop the motion of screen elements on iPod touch.
Tap Set, then choose one of the following:
Set Lock Screen

Set Both
To turn on Perspective Zoom for wallpaper you’ve already set, go to Settings > Wallpaper, tap the image of the Lock Screen or Home Screen, then tap Perspective Zoom.
Tip: You can set your wallpaper to change automatically by creating a personal automation in the Shortcuts app. Set a schedule for your automation, then add the Set Wallpaper action to your automation. See the Shortcuts User Guide.
