Personalise your PS Vita system

Find out how to update the PS Vita system's start screen with an image of your choice.

The start screen is the first screen you see when you start up your PS Vita system and it only takes minutes to give it a fresh new look.

Go to the home screen on your PS Vita system, open the Photos app and tap the Viewing Mode icon in the top left of the screen to view saved images.

These can be any photos you have taken using the PS Vita system's front and rear cameras, as well as any in-game images that you have previously captured and saved - you can take screenshots of most games by pressing the PS button and the START button at the same time whilst playing.

Once you have selected the image you want to use, select the options menu by tapping on the icon on the bottom right of the screen and select [Use as Start Screen] from the menu.

Note:

• We recommend a resolution of at least 960 x 544 pixels for the best quality if you are creating your own image on another device such as a PC. Images created on a PC, or a PS3 system, can be transferred to PS Vita using Content Manager Assistant for PlayStation.
• If you decide you want to go back to the default start screen at any point, go to Settings > [Format] > [Restore Start Screen Image].
