I want to change my wallpaper to an iOS 13 style wallpaper, but my phone refuses to let me do it.

It doesn't show the "Photos" icon where the emoji's and the weather is. Could anyone help me at all?
I have an iPhone 8 running iOS 16.2

Hmm that’s odd. Even after restarting your phone they don’t show up?

It’s weird that they’re missing because they exist on my iPhone 8 running iOS 16.3.

If a restart didn’t fix it then you may need to try a complete wipe and restore of your phone.

I'm personally not interested in using beta iOS software, because I don't want my phone to stop functioning when I need it. Wiping my phone clean is a bit excessive for wallpapers as well.
But thanks anyway for trying to help!

How about opening your photo app, selecting the photo for a wallpaper, and setting it as wallpaper from there?
