Why the exact 1260 × 2736 size matters

The iPhone Air screen is 1260 × 2736 pixels, an aspect ratio of about 19.5:9. A generic wallpaper at a different shape gets zoomed by iOS to fill the screen, which softens detail and can push the subject under the clock. Every wallpaper on this page has been cropped from its full-resolution original to exactly 1260 × 2736, so what you see in the preview is what lands on your lock screen.

How to set a wallpaper on the iPhone Air

  1. Open a wallpaper above and tap Download wallpaper. Your model is selected for you.
  2. Open the image in Photos, tap the share button, then Use as Wallpaper.
  3. Adjust the clock style or depth effect if you like, tap Add, then choose lock screen, home screen or both.
