There’s something about the beginning of fall that makes me want to change everything. The throw blankets come out, I start reaching for warmer colors, pumpkin spice makes its annual return, and apparently my phone needs a seasonal makeover too. So I made a collection of cute fall phone wallpapers you can save and use for free!

I wanted a mix rather than twelve versions of the same pumpkin wallpaper, so you’ll find everything from cozy coffee and books to watercolor autumn leaves, apples, bows, florals, plaid, and a few more minimalist fall backgrounds.
They’re made for phone screens and can be used on both iPhone and Android. Pick one favorite or save a few and switch them out throughout the season!
Free Fall Phone Wallpapers
All of the wallpapers below are free for personal use. To save one, find your favorite design below, save the full-size image to your phone, and set it as your lock screen or home screen.
Depending on your phone, you may need to slightly reposition or crop the image when setting your wallpaper.
Cozy Fall Wallpaper
If you want your phone to basically feel like a cozy fall afternoon, start here. Pumpkins, warm drinks, books, candles, and autumn leaves. This one has a little bit of everything I love about the season.
Kawaii Fall Coffee Wallpaper
Tiny coffee cups with cute little faces? I mean… obviously. 😂
This cute fall phone wallpaper is for my fellow coffee people, with cozy fall drinks and little autumn leaves scattered throughout.
Watercolor Autumn Leaves Wallpaper
A classic fall option without the pumpkins and pumpkin spice. This watercolor autumn phone wallpaper is filled with warm orange, rust, brown and golden leaves.
It’s simple enough to work well behind your apps while still making your phone feel very fall.
Cute Fall Bows Wallpaper
A little girly, a little preppy and still very fall. This one combines autumn-colored bows with leaves, acorns and other tiny seasonal details.
Minimalist Pumpkin Fall Wallpaper
If you prefer a more minimal phone background, this one’s for you. Tiny pumpkins, leaves, acorns and botanical details are scattered over a neutral background with plenty of breathing room.
Cozy Books and Coffee Fall Wallpaper
Books + coffee + fall is basically its own aesthetic at this point, and I’m completely okay with that.
This cozy fall phone background has stacks of books, open books, warm mugs and little autumn leaves for anyone whose ideal fall day involves staying home with something good to read.
Neutral Fall Phone Wallpaper
For the neutral girls. 🤎
This minimalist fall wallpaper keeps everything soft and simple with white pumpkins, beige leaves, acorns and delicate brown botanical sprigs on a warm ivory background.
Autumn Wildflower Wallpaper
Fall doesn’t have to mean pumpkins everywhere! This watercolor floral wallpaper uses rust, ochre, dusty orange, burgundy and brown wildflowers and foliage for a softer take on an autumn phone background.
Apple Orchard Fall Wallpaper
This one feels like early fall to me—when it’s technically September but you’re not quite ready to go full pumpkin yet. 🍎
The apples and orchard-inspired details give you all the cozy fall color without making your phone look like October exploded on it.
Pumpkin Spice Wallpaper
Okay, NOW we can go full pumpkin spice. 😂
Coffee mugs, tiny pumpkins, cinnamon sticks, star anise and coffee beans make this one perfect for PSL season.
Cozy Fall Plaid Wallpaper
Sometimes you don’t want illustrations at all. This simple hand-painted plaid uses warm cream, rust and brown for a cozy fall background that still leaves plenty of room for your apps and widgets.
Cute Woodland Autumn Wallpaper
Mushrooms, acorns, pinecones, berries and fall foliage give this one a cute little woodland feel. It’s slightly vintage-inspired but still whimsical enough to fit with the rest of the collection.
How to Save These Fall Wallpapers to Your Phone
Saving your wallpaper is easy! If you’re on a desktop, right click on the image you want and save it to your computer. If you’re on mobile, press and hold down the image you want, and save it to your camera roll. Then choose it from your phone’s wallpaper settings.
You may need to move or resize the image slightly depending on your screen size and whether you’re using it for your home screen or lock screen.
Feel free to save one or all of them! I’m not expecting anyone to choose between cozy coffee and tiny pumpkins for an entire season. 😂
Which Fall Wallpaper Is Your Favorite?
I think changing your phone background might be one of the easiest little ways to get into the season. No storage bins to drag out. No decor to put away later. Just a tiny dose of fall every time you pick up your phone.
Save your favorites from this collection of free fall phone wallpapers, and don’t forget to check back because I plan to keep adding new designs!
