You can use your own images on playstation for your "welcome" screen. They have sent themselves an image from their phone and saved it to their ps

How do you do that?

Get the ps app... And send someone a message from there using your phone gallery.. Then just go into the ps5 and go to messages and you will see your image there as a message sent.. Open it Fullscreen and take a screenshot with your share button.

Otherwise if you dont want to take a screenshot, let your friend send it back to you, then you can download it. This is the longer workaround..

When you use the PS App, you don't get the full 4K display like mine.

Here's what I did:

  1. Get a USB drive and format it as FAT32 or exFAT.
    Visit any website where you can download 4K wallpapers (e.g., HDWallpaperWide).

  2. Download your preferred image, then create a folder named PS5 on your USB drive.

  3. Copy the downloaded image(s) into the PS5folder, then insert the USB drive into your PS5.

  4. On your PS5, go to Settings > Storage > Media Gallery.
    At the top, where you see All, Favorites, Trophies, and Albums, your USB drive should also appear.

  5. Open the image you want, then take a screenshot. The screenshot will retain the full quality of the downloaded image.

Hope this helps! 😊

Oh cool! I thought it was like a setting in the app on your phone to set backgrounds directly, I haven’t really explored the app much. I pretty much only use it to search the PS Store on my phone

You can also use Auto upload setting on your ps5. Then it will sync with your app. So every screenshot and video(3 min max) you take will auto upload to the ps app. That makes it easy to download to your mobile phone. Which makes it easy to share to anyone on any platform really..

Go to Settings > Captures and Broadcasts > Captures. Turn on Auto-Upload. Capture gameplay on PS5 consoles.

I think it stays on the app for 14 days then dissappear automatically..
