Apple's upcoming iOS 26 will introduce a wallpaper design this fall with spatial features that seem to move in accordance with your iPhone and developers and beta testers can access that wallpaper now. But you don't need to be running the iOS 26 beta to get Apple's latest wallpaper on your iPhone -- however, you'll miss out on spatial features if you're not running iOS 26. The latest wallpaper is called Here's to the Dreamers and was made to celebrate creators from Southeast Asia.
"Let every glance at your phone inspire you with the special Here's to the Dreamers wallpaper, where the design captures a flourishing and vibrant dreamscape -- an abstract realm where imagination nurtures dreams, and ignites the growing Southeast Asia creative spirit," Apple wrote online.
However, the wallpaper isn't included in iOS 18.6 or another iPhone update. Here's how to get the colorful wallpaper on your iPhone now.
How to get the new Here's to the Dreamers iPhone wallpaper

While you don't need to be running the iOS 26 beta on your iPhone to use this image, the wallpaper only works as a spatial scene on iOS 26.
