Stock wallpaper of iPhone 14 Pro doesn't respect blur setting on Home Screen

[PatriotInvasion]

I'm guessing this is a bug, but looks like the stock iPhone 14 Pro wallpapers all blur on Home Screen even though the blur settings is off by default.

If you try adding a new Wallpaper with one of the "Collections", you can get it to show the wallpaper without blur, but as soon as you lock the phone the blur setting applies regardless. Anyone else seeing this bug?

Related to this, I find the entire Lock Screen/Wallpaper customization process to be very clunky and confusing. Hope they improve this throughout the year because it isn't very intuitive.

I have the same issue.

For me it’s the other way: I have collection wallpaper with blur settings for Home Screen.
I have several locked screens wallpapers for each focus mode. When the focus mode stops, the collection wallpaper of the “non focus status” appears without the blur settings.

Thought I was going mad with this! Glad it’s not just me.

Solved for me with 16.0.2

Hmm, that’s odd… I still have the issue 🤔

But im talking about the version I experienced a couple of answers before when changing from a focus mode

I don't think it'll be fixed until 16.1.

I’m having this problem as well. It was driving me crazy.

I ws looking for this thread, I am having the same issue, does anyone think it will be fixed with the next update? Also I want a different wallpaper for my home screen and I can't figure out how to do it

Latest iOS 16.1 Beta has changed the behaviour when setting Collections wallpapers. No longer possible to turn the blur on or off. Maybe they’ve decided it’s a feature, not a bug 😬

I was hoping they'd fix it with 16.1. Removing it entirely isn't a fix. I can confirm that it isn't fixed with 16.0.3.

Same behaviour still present in 16.1 RC.

Same behaviour still present in 16.1 RC.

Glad to know it isn’t just me.

It hasn’t been fixed on my end too. I really thought 16.1 RC would squish this annoying bug.

 

[Anaron]

Can anyone confirm if this bug is still present in the 16.2 beta?

 

[Amarus8271]

Yes it’s still present in 16.2 I’m on 14 pro max

 

[morganperry]

Still present in iOS 16.3 RC, so presumably a feature by now 🙇
