+## Resolution for custom lock screen image
 
+A concern with custom lock screen images is how they will appear on different screen sizes and resolutions.
+
+A custom lock screen image created in 16:9 aspect ratio (1600x900) will scale properly on devices using a 16:9 resolution, such as 1280x720 or 1920x1080. On devices using other aspect ratios, such as 4:3 (1024x768) or 16:10 (1280x800), height scales correctly and width is cropped to a size equal to the aspect ratio. The image will remain centered on the screen
+
+Lock screen images created at other aspect ratios may scale and center unpredictably on your device when changing aspect ratios.
+
+The recommendation for custom lock screen images that include text (such as a legal statement) is to create the lock screen image in 16:9 resolution with text contained in the 4:3 region, allowing the text to remain visible at any aspect ratio.
