Frequently asked questions
What size is an iPhone 16 Plus wallpaper?
iPhone 16 Plus wallpapers should be 1290x2796 pixels (1290 wide by 2796 tall). That is the native resolution of the screen, so the image is shown pixel for pixel with nothing scaled or cropped.
Can I use a different size on an iPhone 16 Plus?
Yes, but the system will scale or crop it to fit. An image with a different shape loses its edges when it is filled to the screen, and a smaller image is enlarged and looks softer. Generating at 1290x2796 avoids both.
How do I make a 1290x2796 wallpaper?
Open the PattrnLab generator at 1290x2796, pick a pattern and palette, and download the PNG. It is rendered in your browser at exactly that size, so there is nothing to resize afterwards.
Which other devices use 1290x2796?
A 1290x2796 wallpaper also matches the iPhone 15 Pro Max, iPhone 14 Pro Max.
