Once you know the optimal size, you can either find a wallpaper that fits it or adjust it by cropping it! Here's how to find a wallpaper that fits your phone size and how to edit your wallpaper 👇

Use a dedicated app

I recommend using a dedicated app to find a wallpaper that fits your phone! The customization app WidgetClub offers a wide variety of different wallpapers ✨ Of course, you can crop the wallpaper depending on its design, but basically you can easily set it up without any size adjustment.

Use image editing software

You can easily resize images using image editing software such as Adobe Photoshop or GIMP! When doing so, pay attention to the resolution. If the resolution is too low, the image may be blurred when set as wallpaper. Generally, a resolution higher than that of the device is recommended.

Use the device's crop function

Each device has a cropping function that allows you to specify the aspect ratio and wallpaper size. Using it, you can crop to the wallpaper size.
