Firstly we are brining new wallpapers for the iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max, the new incredible displays on the iPhone X, XS, XS Max and iPhone XR all require a new aspect ratio for content to look best, and we have been making almost all of our wallpapers with that in mind. The resolutions are higher, the details are crispier and the optimization is much better. With the new A12 Bionic processor we are looking forward to taking advantage of the HEVC encoder and decoder to bring you more editable options and faster performance when doing these operations in the future. In this update we are exited to announce Black Deluxe. Deluxe is an entire new collection of beautiful exclusive wallpapers that we have created for you! So many of you asked for wider variations and we have delivered, Deluxe expands the app so much in so many ways by allowing us to deliver better wallpapers at more frequent intervals. With Deluxe we will be focusing on brining you wallpapers that you will love to showoff on your iPhones and that you can not find anywhere else. Deluxe will be sold as an separate in-app subscription, but worry not, it is an entirely optional purchase and you will get so much more content that we simply couldn't add before and you will get a lot of it for free, regardless whether you decide to unlock Deluxe or not. And the wallpapers that Black was designed to deliver in the first place will always be included in the app without any need to unlock Deluxe, ever! With Deluxe however we can add more content that we simply could not before. With Deluxe we have been focusing on creating content that will match the new themes and designs of the new devices but have crafted it with extra attention to detail, cooperated with so many people and used cutting edge software to deliver incredible wallpapers, we think you will love it.
