For new parents this is awesome. I've set it up so my lockscreen changes a new photo of my son every hour because you can't just have one favorite photo! The only annoying thing I've encountered is that even with the notify slider turned off I will occasionally get a notification that the automation has been run. Then I have to do that trick in the screen time setting to turn off the notifications for shortcuts.

I’m awful with shortcuts… I tried 1478432 times to change my custom wallpapers from light to dark with no results!
Thank you so much for this tutorial!!!

Hey is it possible to have it change twice in one day, for example it changes in the morning to one photo then changes to another in the afternoon

[brigidocallaghan]

Awesome. Having your phone be full screen on the video would be nice though

How on earth do I resize them. They fill the screen way too much.

How do you make the wallpaper not blurry

[SHADMAN]

Not great.. Just use bing wallpaper instead since it updates automatically everyday.
No need to download any pic at all.

[placeofrandomness]

With the new update, make sure to turn off crop to subject and legibility blur.

The verbiage of the “set wallpaper” rule has changed where it reads “Set Wallpaper to Photos for Home Screen”. Because of this, it’s is not running the shortcut correctly. How can I alter this part?

My photo’s have randomly started zooming in, any help? I’ve tried the obvious!
