[@adiew4026]

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!

[@muhdanielaqil3405]

just want to ask, why some photo have many vibe to choose, and some photo just have 2 vibes to choose which is natural/blackwhite.

[@WebproeducationOrgTechnology]

It depends on how well the AI is able to work with the photo in question

[@AmericanSoldierSioux1969]

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

[@Spuviz]

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 👍🏽

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 ‘KZbins’ 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 KZbin 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!

[@WebproeducationOrgTechnology]

I appreciate big time! Google normally puts user experience first in their priority list. Sometimes we lose out on the interaction but the view still counts. It's not too bad!

I’m having a problem with my iPhone Lock Screen. The clock used to be coloured white and would still be visible on my bright background, but now it is impossible to see after I tried adding a Duolingo widget to it. I removed the widget but it’s still practically invisible. Is there any way I can make the clock and date stand out while it is still white?

This must be tied into the ability to copy foreground objects from the background… which my X doesn’t support. Oh well. I’m picking up my 14 Pro on Friday.

[@tommylukac763]

Before panicking about the depth effect not working on your lock screen wallpaper, you should make sure that your iPhone is compatible with this feature. Well, there is no official device compatibility list from Apple, but our testing shows that it supports the iPhone XS and newer models. Note: On old iPhones, you cannot use the depth effect on captured portrait photos on your iPhone when setting the lock screen. Nonetheless, you can do the same with the pre-installed lock screen wallpapers on iOS 16. So strating on Xs and newer.
