101+ White Wallpaper Backgrounds To Download For Free

Lifestyle, Wallpaper

For a clean and minimalistic aesthetic for your phone, check out these gorgeous white wallpaper backgrounds you can download for free!

When it comes to incorporating a minimalistic aesthetic, you can never go wrong with using white wallpaper for your phone.

To some, choosing wallpaper backgrounds for their phone isn’t all too important. However, to me, it’s another way for me to stay inspired. There are so many ways I can get creative with my phone wallpapers. I can use my phone backgrounds to put on encouraging quotes that help me through the day. On some days, I might be wanting to try out a certain aesthetic, and changing my wallpaper to fit the vibe helps a lot.

These days, I’ve been really drawn to using white wallpaper for my phone. Perhaps it’s because I’ve fallen through the hole of Scandinavian aesthetics. If you’re unfamiliar with this concept, it’s actually a design that focuses on clean, simple lines as well as minimalism as its main center point.

And when I think of such aesthetics, I think of the color white. It’s a color that has so much potential and can easily fit other kinds of aesthetics and hues too.

So whether you’re wanting to create a minimalist theme for your phone or you simply just love this particular color, keep scrolling to find some of the prettiest white backgrounds you can use for your phone.

How To Save These White Backgrounds On Your Phone

Press and hold the photo that you want and click save to iPhone. This should work on Androids as well! Once you’ve saved the photo to your camera roll, you can go into settings and change your white wallpaper.

Note: You can use any of these white backgrounds for either your home screen, lock screen, or both. Your iPhone gives you the option to use a different wallpaper for each screen, which is a fun way to incorporate more photos.

I like to use a bolder wallpaper as my lock screen and I choose a more muted wallpaper for my home screen.

For me, this makes it easier to see my apps over my home screen’s wallpaper, but this is a personal preference and will depend on your phone’s aesthetic.

If you really love a particular white wallpaper but are having trouble using it on your home screen, try using an editing app (I love Tezza and Canva for this) to add a muted overlay over the photo. This should make it easier to use under your apps.

White Wallpaper Options

Here you’ll find over a hundred white wallpaper options to choose from! What’s more, you’ll find them in varying concepts and aesthetics that you’ll surely find the perfect white backgrounds to put on your phone.

All these wallpapers will fit perfectly as both your homescreen and lockscreen so feel free to save as many as you want! I’ve also linked their sources below each photo so you can get them in their original quality.
