Can’t add photos to portrait face

[Guacamole]

I have a new issue with my S7.
I’ve been trying to add photos to portrait and it doesn’t give me the option to choose . I can add photos to the other photo face but not to portrait . I even created an album called portrait and added some pics there and nothing

The photos have to have been taken using portrait mode on the iPhone.
Even then to get the clock behind the subject effect, the subject has to be in the right place.

I've just took a selfie to try and nothing.. I click on choose photos and it takes me same as above, nothing to choose from

Try the back camera, in portrait mode & take a picture of any object making sure to get the blurred background.

hold on.. I only took a selfie but I didn't click on portrait mode, just a regular selfie.. yes if I take the photo on portrait it works... I just thought we could add any photo to it, it seems that's not the case
Thanks !

Thank you for pointing this out. I could not figure out why it wasn't working.

Photos app on iPhone shows 66 portrait pics, watch only offers 7. Why?
