    TUTORIAL STEPS:
    - First things first download some wallpapers you wanna switch between.
    - Then, in the photos app, go to each wallpaper and hit the share button and add each one to it's own album that you can look up later in the shortcuts app: I named mine things like writing focus or photo editing focus.
    - Next go into settings and focus and make sure you've got all your focus modes setup and ready to go - and make sure to enable any custom home screens you want for each focus.
    - Then pop into the shortcuts app and create a personal automation.
    - Scroll down and select one of your focus modes.
    - Select when turning on.
    - On the next screen select add action and search for and select "find photos."
    - Choose add filter on the next screen and then choose the photos album with the wallpaper you want (that you should've setup earlier).
    - Then at the bottom search for and select the "set wallpaper" action.
    - Then hit the little arrow next to photos and turn off show preview and hit next and finally turn off ask before running and you're done.
    - Now just repeat the process for all your focus modes and get your widget added (and I added the widget to all my focus home screens so I can easily bounce between them all).

      Just curious why you decided to automate the change as opposed to shuffling throughout the day. I have yet to create a shortcut for cycling through wallpapers but I want to, so just wanted to know what led you to those specific automations cause I assumed it was just a shuffle thing. Can you get pretty creative with the automations that could trigger a wallpaper change?

    Streaks! I have several apps that I use that I need to check in with daily, and that awesome little app will help me stay on top of those items without having to go digging for them. Thank you for that little $4.99 nugget! Note for others, if you already have a streak going, you can go into the settings and mark the calendar to get you to the number of day you're already on! Additionally, it chooses appropriate icons for your tasks.

    Thank you for posting. It was quite the little escapade today setting all this up. It was a little hard to follow at times because one app was immediately jumped into affer another, but I appreciate you showcasing your setup and what the new OS is capable of. I'm sure folks have already pointed this out, but the new focus modes for iPhone allow you to link wallpapers to your foci. Best of luck and keep it up!
