To set only one static wallpaper for your lock screen on a Redmi phone, you need to navigate through the settings to select a single image from your gallery or the available themes and apply it specifically to the lock screen.
Step-by-Step Guide to Setting a Single Lock Screen Wallpaper
Setting a unique, static image for your lock screen on a Redmi device is straightforward and allows for personalized customization, ensuring only your chosen image appears every time.
1. Accessing Wallpaper Settings
Begin by opening your phone's configuration menu to locate the display customization options.
- 1. Go to “Settings”: Tap on the "Settings" app icon from your home screen or app drawer. This is the central hub for all phone configurations.
- 2. Scroll down and select “Wallpaper”: Within the Settings menu, scroll through the options until you find and tap on "Wallpaper." This section manages both your home screen and lock screen backgrounds. You might also find it under "Personalization" or "Display" depending on your MIUI version.
2. Selecting Your Desired Image
Once in the wallpaper section, you'll choose where to source your lock screen image.
- 1. Choose “Lock screen” or “Lock screen & Wallpaper”: Tap on the option specifically for the lock screen. This might be labeled directly as "Lock screen wallpaper" or be part of a broader "Wallpapers" section where you then specify the application area.
- 2. Browse or Select from Gallery:
- From Themes/Pre-installed: You can browse through a collection of pre-installed wallpapers or those available via the Themes app. Select one that you like.
- From your Gallery: To use a personal photo, tap on "Gallery" or "My photos." Navigate through your albums, select the single image you wish to use, and confirm your choice.
3. Applying the Wallpaper
After selecting your image, the final step is to apply it to your lock screen.
- 1. Preview and Apply: Once you've selected an image, you'll usually see a preview of how it will look on your lock screen.
- 2. Tap "Apply" or "Set": Look for an "Apply" button, often at the bottom of the screen. A prompt will appear asking where you want to apply the wallpaper.
- 3. Select "Set as Lock screen": Choose this option. This action will ensure that your selected image is the only wallpaper displayed on your lock screen.
Important Note: If your Redmi phone has features like "Wallpaper Carousel" or "Daily Lock Screen," ensure these are disabled. These features automatically change your lock screen wallpaper periodically, which would prevent you from having only one static image. You can usually find and disable these options within the "Lock screen" settings or the "Themes" app.
