SceneSway for iOS - Help & Support
Updated: 6 November 2026
Get started
SceneSway by Sorton Tech works on iPhone and iPad with iOS 17 or later. Browse Explore, choose a category or search, and tap a work to preview it. The download icon in Explore limits the view to included wallpapers for offline browsing. Other thumbnails and resources need a network connection.
Tap a heart to add or remove a favorite; find favorites in Saved. Favorites stay on this device. SceneSway follows your device language and supports English and Simplified Chinese.
The app is intended for ages 13+. Skipped/unknown or under-18 age choices use a reviewed collection with statistics and ads off. Change the choice in Settings > Age range. This is a self-declared age range, not age verification.
Save and set a wallpaper
Open a work and tap Save image. For an available video, you can choose Save video or Export Live Photo. Let the content finish preparing and allow SceneSway to add to Photos. The app requests add-only access and does not browse existing photos.
If saving is denied, review SceneSway's Photos permission in iOS Settings. Also check free device storage and the network connection for content that is not included with the app. A saved favorite does not guarantee its remote resource has already downloaded.
After saving, open iOS Settings > Wallpaper > Add New Wallpaper > Photos, select the saved image and adjust it. The app's Settings > How to set wallpaper provides the guide. Saving a file does not automatically change your system wallpaper.
Live Photo and effect limits
On compatible iPhones with iOS 17 or later, iOS may allow an eligible Live Photo to animate when the Lock Screen wakes. Eligibility depends on the photo, device and iOS version. A successful export or playback in Photos does not guarantee Lock Screen motion; use the still image if motion is unavailable. Home Screen wallpaper uses a still image. Do not expect iPhone Lock Screen motion on iPad.
The app's clock/Lock Screen view is a preview. Water, parallax and 3D cover artwork can be saved as still images; this iOS release does not run interactive water, layered 3D or continuous effects behind your apps.
This release has no personal-media import, account, in-app purchase or subscription feature.
Statistics and advertising choices
Settings > Usage statistics lets eligible adults allow or decline optional Firebase Analytics. Turning it off stops collection and resets local analytics data; it does not erase previously uploaded records. Browsing and saving do not require statistics.
Advertising choices are separate. Eligible adults may see non-personalized AdMob ads when UMP permits requests. Open Settings > Advertising privacy options when that entry is required and available. If a privacy request fails and a retry entry appears, check your connection and retry. Changing statistics alone does not change advertising consent. No ad click is required to save a wallpaper.
Clear downloaded cache
Settings > Clear cache removes downloaded wallpaper cache. Favorites, the included offline collection and copies already saved to Photos stay. Remote resources can be downloaded again, so a later preview or save may need a connection.
