How do I change my iPhone to greyscale?

Go into your Settings and tap on General followed by Accessibility. Then, scroll to the bottom and find Accessibility Shortcuts. Tap "Color Filters" so that a check mark appears beside the option. Now when you triple tap your Home button, your iPhone screen will display in black and white.

If you click settings and click Wallpaper, when you select one it should give you the option to apply the wallpaper to lock screen and home screen, just home screen, or just lock screen.
