Some otherwise dormant gamers have even taken to Twitter, complaining about the added exercise of walking around.

The resurgence of Pokémon on iOS caused a flurry of excitement with those newly interested gamers or some playing for the nostalgia. Regardless, Pokémon GO is extremely popular on the App Store. Don't miss your chance to catch all of this week's Pokémon inspired iPhone wallpapers.

Jim Gresham ∙ Updated April 30, 2018

Since WWDC 2016, we created a series of wallpapers featuring the iOS 10 and macOS wallpapers. Also, wallpapers inspired by other features of the new operating systems posted across the last couple weeks. Today will be another set in the same series.

A new feature of watch OS 3 is the Breathe app. The idea is another step in the increased health functionality of Apple's latest offering.
