How to get more backgrounds on PlayStation Welcome

PlayStation Welcome is a new function for PlayStation 5 that's the new first screen you'll see when you turn on your PlayStation. This screen is highly customizable and allows you to add or remove widgets to see what you think is most important.




PlayStation Welcome also has a background that can be changed to almost any photo you want, although this background is visible behind your current widgets and disappears once you move from the PlayStation Welcome icon. Although it's not the same theme system as PlayStation 4; players can customize it and at least set a background that will be visible every time the PlayStation is turned on.

How to Change the PlayStation Welcome Background


PlayStation Welcome will be the first icon you see every time PlayStation 5 will turn on and press the left joystick or d-pad to fully open the welcome page. To change the background, open the welcome page and press up twice and place the cursor on the edit button. Swipe right twice and select the background option to open the three options you have for the background. No matter which background or photo you choose, it will remain as your home page background until a different one is selected.

Displayed widgets can be turned on or off to show only the ones you want, but you always need to turn on three. For those who want to prefer the background view over the widgets, turn on the following three:

  • Battery life
  • Trophies
  • Trade

Although these three appear as smaller widgets on the left side of the screen, it leaves most of the screen open to show the background.
