How it works

Four easy steps.

From camera roll to Lock Screen in about a minute. No tracing, no green screen, no account.

  1. 1

    Photo

    Choose a photo, take a new one, or send one straight from the Photos app. WallyPaper finds your kid or pet, lifts them off the background and frames them with their face in view.

  2. 2

    Style

    Tap a template: a trading card, a Polaroid, a holiday theme, or build your own look from solid backdrops and gradients.

  3. 3

    Name

    Add a name or nickname. Pick a font and style, and place it wherever it looks best.

  4. 4

    Set

    Save to Photos, then choose Share › Use as Wallpaper. WallyPaper walks you through it, and iOS adds the depth effect automatically when it fits.

Made for kids and pets

The magic happens on your iPhone, not on a server.

Automatic subject lift and framing using on-device subject and face detection. Your photos never leave your phone.

Finds them. Lifts them out. Frames the face.

Pick a photo and WallyPaper lifts your kid or pet out of it in seconds, then places them with their face in view, clear of the clock and controls.

If nothing is detected, tap Use Whole Photo and carry on.

Bring in the whole crew.

Two kids? A kid and the dog? Add another photo and put them on the same wallpaper, then tap to choose who is in front.

Hundreds of emoji stickers.

Drawn as stickers you can place anywhere. Party, animals, food, space, sports, hearts, holidays, bling.

Built for the Lock Screen.

A Lock Screen preview shows the clock and controls while you design, so nothing important ends up hidden behind them.

Every wallpaper is rendered at your iPhone's exact screen resolution, or made for another device: iPhone, iPhone Duo, iPad or iPhone SE, with your design carried across.

Move it, size it, flip it.

Drag to move, pinch to resize, flip to face the other way. Give them a soft shadow or a sticker border.

Trading cards.

Three finishes, Classic, Gold Foil and Throwback, each in three colors, drawn around your photo on your iPhone. A Crop button picks exactly what goes on the card, and you can widen it again any time.

Classic and Gold Foil are free. Throwback comes with Pro.

Every wallpaper, saved.

Every wallpaper lands in your library automatically. Reopen it, tweak it, duplicate it or remake it any time, with undo and redo.

Put the Latest Wallpapers widget on your Home Screen and it rotates through your newest creations, faces kept in view.

AirDrop one to Grandma, or send it in Messages from the share sheet.

Privacy

No account. No ads. No tracking.

WallyPaper processes your photos entirely on your iPhone and never sends them anywhere. We run no servers, so there is nothing to collect.

Photos stay on your iPhone

Your kid or pet is lifted from the photo by Apple's Vision framework on your device. WallyPaper uses the system photo picker, so it only ever sees the photo you choose.

Nothing to sign up for

No account, no analytics, no advertising, no crash reporting and no third-party SDKs. The app itself makes no network connections.

Apple handles purchases

Pro is sold through the App Store with StoreKit. We never receive your name, email, payment details or Apple Account information.
