How to Make a Wallpaper Switch from Home Screen on iPhone

Since iOS 13, Apple introduced a new app called Shortcut (Siri Shortcut). 

Where you can command Siri to perform simple tasks such as adding music to your playlist, calling your favorite contacts, and many more.

Besides creating your own shortcuts, you can also get shortcuts on the Internet. 

These shortcuts are created by 3rd parties to add more variety because there are many things that can be done by this Shortcut application rather than just doing basic tasks.
