How To Set Wallpaper Photos on an Apple iPad

Step-by-Step Guide: Setting Custom Wallpapers on iPad

Step 1: Choose Your Wallpaper Orientation
SpookyLife.com offers wallpaper images in two formats:

  • 9:20 Vertical – Best for portrait mode (great for Lock Screen or when using iPad upright).
  • 16:10 Landscape – Ideal for landscape mode, which is common when using a keyboard or watching media.

Choose the format that fits how you most often use your iPad!

Step 2: Download Wallpaper Images from SpookyLife.com

  1. Open Safari on your iPad.
  2. Go to spookylife.com.
  3. Tap on an image you like to view it full screen.
  4. Tap and hold the image until the menu appears.
  5. Choose “Add to Photos.”
  6. Repeat to save additional images.

Step 3: Organize Your Wallpapers in an Album

  1. Open the Photos app.
  2. Tap the Albums tab, then tap the “+” in the top-left.
  3. Select New Album, name it something like Spooky iPad Wallpapers, then tap Save.
  4. Choose the images you downloaded and tap Add.

Step 4: Set Your Wallpaper or Lock Screen

  1. Open the Settings app.
  2. Tap Wallpaper in the sidebar, then tap Add New Wallpaper.
  3. Scroll down and tap Photos.
  4. Choose an image from your Spooky iPad Wallpapers album.
  5. Pinch, zoom, or drag to adjust how it fits your screen—especially useful for switching between portrait and landscape.
  6. Tap Set as Wallpaper Pair to apply to both Lock and Home Screens, or tap Customize Home Screen to use a different image.

Step 5: Optional – Set Up a Wallpaper Shuffle
iPadOS 17 and newer lets you shuffle wallpapers just like on iPhone.

  1. In Settings > Wallpaper, tap Add New Wallpaper.
  2. Tap Photo Shuffle.
  3. Choose the Spooky iPad Wallpapers album.
  4. Select shuffle frequency:
    • On Tap
    • On Wake
    • Hourly
    • Daily
  5. Tap Use Album, then tap Set as Wallpaper Pair.

Bonus Tip: Match Your Orientation

  • Vertical images (9:20) work best if you usually unlock or use your iPad in portrait mode.
  • Landscape images (16:10) are perfect for landscape mode and will avoid cropping or black bars when using a keyboard or stand.

You're All Set!
