One of the new “features” of iOS 17 is something that causes the wallpapers on the Lock and Home screens to blur. Many find this looks horrible with the photos they have chosen for their wallpapers. Although there is currently no way to turn off this feature, there are a few things you can do to work around it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In this article, we’ll explain what this “top of the wallpaper blur” is doing and some ideas for what you can do to prevent or reduce the blur. There isn’t a perfect solution, but if you’re willing to play around a little bit with your photos, you can create a wallpaper you’re happier with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This blur is different than the one you may have seen before – usually on the Home Screen, where you can select to blur or not blur the photo to make the Home Screen wallpaper less busy. This is a new Extend Wallpaper<\/strong> feature on iOS 17. Basically, what is happening with your wallpaper is that when your chosen photo is not sized so that it fills the entire screen, the blurring effect comes in to “extend” the photo to fill the screen. The problem is that it blurs parts of the photo you may wish to see clearly. And many describe the effect as ugly. <\/p>\n\n\n
