With the iOS 26.5 update, Apple has added a new Pride Luminance wallpaper to your iPhone. The wallpaper features strips of colors that transition as you swipe up from the lock screen to the home screen. By default, the wallpaper uses a rich, vibrant color palette that celebrates the LGBTQ+ community.

But it’s actually super customizable, and it allows you to pick your own personal color palette for your iPhone’s lock screen. Here’s how to add the new colorful wallpaper and make it your own.

I have recently been reviewing high-powered, multifunctional desk chargers, and I think they are great for providing reliable power to your devices while keeping your space decluttered. Most of the chargers I have tested usually have a wattage cap of 140, like the Nomos charger, or 200W, like Anker’s charging station. But as we get more and more tech that constantly needs to be charged, getting something with higher wattage becomes essential, especially for power users. That is where CUKTECH’s new 30 Ultra Charging Station really stood out. It delivers up to 300W of output, features CUKTECH’s signature display, and offers something I have not seen in any other charger. Here is what you need to know.
