Right after the WWDC 2025 keynote, Apple released the first developer beta for iOS 26. As usual, the new system comes with a fresh set of default wallpapers to match its updated design language, and you can download them right here.
Be sure to click the images and save the full-resolution wallpaper, and then set it as your background image through the Photos app or Settings app if you’re using an iOS device.
Alongside the design overhaul, iOS 26 introduces updates to CarPlay, a new Games app, more Apple Intelligence tools, and updates to Apple Music, Maps, and Wallet. You can read more about it here.
