Given the popularity of the (Betamods) Wallpapers of the Week collection, it was a given that we needed to tackle the iOS 16 lock screen depth effect wallpaper situation. Apple’s incredibly dynamic lock screen feature plays creatively with the image subject by carefully hiding the clock behind a primary focal point within the image. However, not all images seem to work. Don’t be afraid! Download the best backgrounds from this iOS 16 Depth Effect wallpaper pack.
Working on this set of 20 images, I went through about 40 total images, trying to find images that actually work with the new iOS 16 lock screen feature. Apple doesn’t give much direction on what will or won’t work with the iOS 16 lock screen depth effect. After hours of tinkering with these many images, the following pro-tip tips will help you find or create your own.
