Apple's wallpaper selection in iOS 11 is just abysmal

Apple released the newest version of its mobile operating system for iPhones and iPads on Tuesday — most of the changes look great, but there's one particularly disappointing aspect of iOS 11.

The wallpaper selection is just abysmal. Some categories remain unchanged, while others, like the Live wallpapers, lost previously included wallpapers without gaining any new ones.

Take a look.

As in iOS 10, Apple has three wallpaper categories: Dynamic, Stills, and Live.

In the Dynamic wallpaper category, there have been zero changes from iOS 10 to iOS 11. You still have the same seven options: bubbles bouncing around your screen, with various colors in the background.

These Dynamic wallpapers have always been my least favorite wallpapers, so it's disappointing to see there were no changes or improvements.



The "Stills" category saw the most changes. Here's what it looked like in iOS 10, when there were 15 options to choose from:

There were planets, abstract explosions of color, and color gradient wallpapers (not seen here).
