Google is working to bring a beloved iPhone wallpaper feature to Pixels

TL;DR Clues inside Android 17 QPR1 beta 5 reveal Google is working on a native “Photo Shuffle” feature for Pixel’s Wallpaper & style app. The feature will allow users to select albums of people or pets to automatically cycle as wallpapers at hourly, daily, sunrise/sunset, or on-tap intervals. This feature appears inspired by iOS, and could eliminate the need for battery-draining third-party apps to achieve the same functionality.
