Programmatically update background wallpaper of iOS 7?

Is it possible to update the iOS background wallpaper now with iOS 7 programmatically? I have several instances where users are wanting to update their wallpaper to a changing images at programmatically determined intervals. I know that this was not supported pre 7, but I am not sure if it has been added and cannot yet find a definitive answer.

NO. Apps are sandboxed and do not change system settings in any way.

There is not, and will likely never be, a public API for this. This is a good thing, trust me.

You can save a picture to the user's photo album, which should then be easy for them to set that as their wallpaper.
