They are not included. I believe they are wallpapers that are exclusive to the 7 and 7 Plus.

It doesn't move though. They still have the old iOS 9 wallpaper.

It was supposed to be there. Let Apple know. It'll be in the coming update. I know it.
Thx, I already did leave feedback there. I also had a strange very friendly but vague conversation with the apple support twitter account. I really hope there will be an update. I'm also wondering why nobody's really talking about it anywhere.

Usually when a new iOS comes out, we always get new wallpapers that come with it.

iOS 10, reportedly, is supposed to have colorful blobs/bubbles. It's featured in all of the Apple product shots, but after updating to iOS 10.0.1 no new Live wallpapers are available.

Only one new Still Wallpaper is available.

That Still Wallpaper is nice, but those blobs are nicer. Somehow they didn't make it to release.

We're experiencing a high level of disappointment.

Help us get those colorful blobs Live wallpapers back in iOS 10.

We'll get that wallpaper, I know it.

We have to make it known. This happened before. They show really nice wallpapers and then somehow it gets left out. Leaving us to do the research. iOS 10 had 1 new Still wallpaper. 1.

Really?

And to let you know this was supposed to be included inside of iOS 10, they even have each blob with colors that complement the iPhone models!

In the same way that the fish Live wallpapers complement every color of iPhone.

So, I've thought about this for a couple of days now and I'm finally convinced that those 'blobs' never were supposed to be included as a wallpaper, especially not as a live one. The only one that I have ever seen animated was the blue on black one in videos from the hands on event after the Keynote. They either never planned to include them or somewhere along the way decided against it. What strikes me as very odd is that they made such a big show of the clownfish wallpaper for the 6S, why not do it again for the 7. Anyhow, I caved yesterday and downloaded the purple static one and I didn't like it at all, maybe it would be cooler if it was animated but I kinda could see somebody go 'meh' let's just use those in the product shots but not bother with putting any more time and effort into developing a live version for each blob.

Well, usually these tech blogs are able to extract any hidden Live wallpapers there are but I'm not hearing anything. I mean, if they didn't include the new camera feature in iOS 10.0.1, I'm assuming they left those out too.

Because they're everywhere! And look at the color scheme. They've got one for the gold iPhone and the rose gold too.

Yeah it's all a bit weird. They even made different ones for the regular 7 and the 7+.
No, they weren't included in the 10.0.1 update.

They will probably be released in 10.1 if an Apple Engineer runs across enough threads on this.
