Fix Wallpaper Showing as Black Screen on iPhone or iPad

There are a few potential explanations and solutions that you can try if you are encountering a black screen when attempting to set a wallpaper on your iPhone or iPad.

In the first place, you should double-check that the settings on your smartphone are not the root of the issue. Make sure that "Reduce Transparency" is not activated by going to "Settings" > "Accessibility" > "Display & Text Size" on your device and selecting that option. If you utilize this setting, your wallpapers may take on the appearance of black displays.

There are a number of things that could be causing the black screen, one of which is that the wallpaper you are trying to use is not suitable for the resolution of your device. Try switching to an alternative wallpaper that has been developed expressly for the pixel density of your iPhone or iPad so that you can correct this issue.

You may also try resetting the settings of your device by navigating to "Settings" > "General" > "Reset" > "Reset All Settings." This option is available in most modern electronic devices. This will return all of your device's settings to their original default values, which, if the problem still persists, you should try. Take aware, though, that doing so will clear all of your personal preferences and data from our system.

In the event that none of these options is successful, it is probable that the problem lies inside the device's software. If this continues to be an issue, consider updating your device to the most recent version of iOS, or get in touch with Apple Support for additional assistance.

It is also possible that a jailbroken smartphone is the cause of the black screen issue. If this is the case, you should try restoring your iPhone to its factory settings and then updating to the most recent version of iOS. Doing so will remove the jailbreak and resolve the issue.

If you follow these instructions, you should be able to fix the problem where the wallpaper on your iPhone or iPad displays as a blank screen.
