How to Delete an iOS 16 Wallpaper on Your iPhone

Clearing iOS 16 Wallpaper Cache to Free Up Storage Space

iOS 16 is one of the most popular operating systems for mobile devices. However, with this comes the added burden of needing to clear up storage space. One of the ways you can do this is by clearing out the iOS 16 wallpaper cache. Here’s how you can get started:

1. Navigate to the Settings menu:
The first step is to open your device’s Settings menu. You can usually do this by tapping on the app icon that looks like a gear on your home screen. Once you’re there, scroll down until you see the option for “General” and tap on it.

2. Find the Wallpaper option:
After you tap on “General,” scroll down until you see the option for “Wallpaper.” Tap on it to open up the wallpaper selection menu.

3. Scroll down to the bottom:
In the wallpaper selection menu, scroll all the way down to the bottom until you see the option for “Choose a New Wallpaper.”

4. Clear the wallpaper cache:
Tap on “Choose a New Wallpaper” and you will see a message pop up that says “Wallpaper is already in use.” This means that you have selected a wallpaper that you are currently using. However, what you don’t know is that the device creates a cache for all the wallpapers you use. Tap on the “Cancel” button and head over to your Photos app.

5. Find your wallpapers:
In the Photos app, you need to locate the wallpapers that you have been using. Once you have located them, select all of them. After selecting them, tap on the “Delete” button to get rid of them. This will not only help you clear up storage space but it will also help your device run faster.

By following these simple steps, you can easily clear out your iOS 16 wallpaper cache and free up some much-needed storage space. Keep in mind that this is just one method of clearing out space, so feel free to explore other options as well.
