Dang I have a photo with an obvious background but it still didn’t work

Guys If your depth effect button is greyed out don’t worry just remove the widgets and then the button will be accessible and if it’s still not working then it’s just the wallpaper problem 👍🏽

Mine doesn't show depth effect for my personal photo. Is depth effect only for pre-stocked iPhone only photos?

[adiew]

Very helpful thank you! I couldn’t figure out why some of my custom photos would allow depth effect and others wouldn’t and then you mentioned it has to have an obviously background like not zoomed in and it worked!

I don’t even have an option for depth effect, I’m on Xr and the only thing it says is see image in library

[muhdanielaqil]

[thecupcakelord]

I have multiple wallpapers so it doesn’t give me the option only when to change the wallpaper.

Why depth effect not working on some pics!!

[dillonfosa]

Would be cool to have the effect with widgets too

Have a friend that showed me how to do this one time but I forgot. Thank you for posting such a special video. :)

Very simple to understand and concise. Thank you! Your video came up as the top choice. I have to wonder though how that works for you and other ‘YouTubes’ since it’s easier to just press play using Google’s search engine and end there but then you don’t (I’m assuming) get as much feedback or interaction with your viewers. Unless I take the extra step to open the video using the YouTube app using the link, there’s no easy way to give a video a thumbs up (or down), save the video, or subscribe. Maybe I’m missing a huge chunk of understanding in this area. I’d love to know your thoughts if you have time. Either way, thanks for helping the Internet and all the information out there just a little bit easier. Take care!

Note that maybe happens to only me: if you put widgets on ur depth wallpaper the depth will fail so remove the widgets
