## Step-by-step guide

1. In FileWave Central, create a new Mobile Fileset and choose **Profile**.
2. Configure the **General** payload and give the profile a clear name.
3. Configure the **Command Policy** payload. Under **Wallpaper**, choose Lock Screen, Home Screen, or both, then select the image.
4. Select **Save**.

Deploy the profile to a small test group first. Confirm the image appears on the intended screen before expanding the deployment.

**Image size:** Keep the file as small as practical so devices can download it quickly. FileWave runs this command daily and reapplies the selected wallpaper.
