The Best Wallpaper Changer Apps for Android [July 2019]
Of all the things that people look at every day, the cellphone screen probably comes out on top in terms of duration for many people. Looking at the same grid of icons on a “Home screen” over and over again might prove to be overly monotonous for most people, at least if there isn’t a nice background to go with it.
This is why you might like to change up the background on a regular basis. Luckily enough, there are now apps that can do this for you. As a matter of fact, whatever it is that you want to do on a smartphone, there is an app for that. Of all the wallpaper changer apps available on the Play Store, is there a way to find the best one?
This article will attempt to answer this question by comparing app ratings, reviews, and just overall usefulness.
4K Wallpapers – Auto Wallpaper Changer
With an admirable rating of 4.7 based on over 100k user reviews, this app has a vast collection of 4K (Ultra HD) and Full HD (HD stands for High Definition) backgrounds. As one might expect from such a program, this one lets you choose how often you want your background changed. Besides being simple to use, it also lets users save the pictures they find appealing.
Many users praise this app for its user-friendliness and very interesting categorized collection. The only big issue is the big number of ads in the free version.
Resplash
Resplash is not your everyday wallpaper changer. It also lets you view user profiles and other users’ collections. Likewise, you can log in yourself to create your own collections and save your wallpapers there. The presence of a dark mode and its generous worldwide photographer community make this app even more unique.
Most users consider it a great stock photography background app for its speed and good image quality. However, some of them encountered issues with the automatic changer. Despite that, its user score of 4.7 (based on a smaller audience of 3.7k people) confirms its utility for everyone looking for more than a simple changer.
ZEDGE™ Ringtones & Wallpapers
Zedge, a very well-known mobile content creator, has its own app that makes changing wallpaper a breeze. What makes it stand out is the option to set an animated image, also known as a live wallpaper, as your Home and/or Lock screen. It even has a Crop tool for further personalizing your new HD background. Since the company is well-known for its ringtones, you can change them through this app as well.
While some people called the ads in the free version intrusive, users tend to compliment everything else about this app. It even manages to score a rating of 4.6 despite having over 7 million reviews, which is a huge achievement.
Walli – 4K, HD Wallpapers & Backgrounds
Being selected by Google is nothing to sneeze at. This application claims it has managed to achieve just that, having been featured by the Google Wallpapers app. What separates Walli from the rest is its community of artists. The app makes it a point to promote not just the wallpapers but also the artists who created them, who would also get to share the earnings. Walli has an awesome layout, as it lets you sort by Featured, Popular, and Recent backgrounds.
The only prominent complaint is the playlist, which may not work as intended for everyone. This is a new feature that changes the background every few hours, so we can perhaps hope that the developer would work out the kinks soon. The app’s impressive rating of 4.9, based on over 600k user reviews, proves that it is definitely here to stay.
So, What Are You Looking for?
Answering this will almost certainly help you find the right app for your needs. If you need a simple background changer for a large-screen device and you have a few bucks to spare, 4K Wallpapers is probably your best choice.
If you’re looking for something new, you might want to give Resplash a try. For a multifunctional app, Zedge has you covered. Finally, if by any chance you’re a photographer, artist, or graphic designer, definitely check out Walli and if you have what it takes to sell your own wallpapers. Of course, it is also a great app all around.
At the end of the day, you can’t really go wrong with any of the above.
