The latest iOS 26 features a brand-new wallpaper in abstract design, featuring overlapping shapes in deep blue and aqua green shades against a neutral background. Each of the new wallpapers beautifully blends in with the Lock Screen clock, creating a translucent aesthetic that showcases Apple’s latest “Liquid Glass” language. Overall, these backgrounds enhance the 3D effect for a modern and calming feel.
The iOS 26 wallpapers come in four variants: a Light and Dark version of the Home Screen, and a slightly different Light and Dark version for the Lock Screen.
