Backdrops has a rich , most interestingly, very widely assorted mix of styles and themes by numerous artists. What I mean is it doesn't get stuck with a colection made up of a lot of things in a similar style or styles, nor a lot of pieces looking like they could be enjoyed only by a few age groups. 20 somethings and young teens, for example. While it has selections for adult tastes, its range isn't stodgy or unadventurous. I change my look often. For now, it's all my phone and I need.

Really love this app! I look forward to new content daily. Amazing art, uploads from the community as well as the developers. Beauty of the content is sometimes breathtaking. Can't wait to try a new backdrop on my phone or tablet each time, yet I don't want to get rid of the one that's on there because it's so amazing. Highly recommend upgrading to the pro version Unlimited content and options is well worth the few dollars. I have uploaded a bunch of my own but there not available yet?!? 😕

These backdrops are superior to all simply beautiful wallpapers there are so many choices of vibrant, colorful, wallpapers, you could never go through them all. with Google play pass there's no Purchases or Ad, if you don't want battery draining wall paper no live movements, only quality views, Then this is the App is for you!!

Amazing app. It works great. I have premium, and the only problem for me so far is that the auto wallpaper switch stops working after a certain amount of time. I need to switch it off and on every day, and it will switch once or twice before stopping. Otherwise, it's an awesome app.

Backdrops used to be THE app for wallpapers. Unfortunately, it’s now AI wallpapers everywhere. You can thankfully still see the old, good ones, but it looks to me like most of (if not all) of the new wallpapers over the last year have been AI-generated. This utilitarian philosophy of “the way the image was made does not matter” is a total letdown from an app that I genuinely enjoyed. It completely undermines their entire tagline "Original. Beautiful. Designs." Can't recommend.

Wow, the animations in the pro pack section are like 20 fps. Bought animal frenzy, and the animations lag so awful, like a slide show. Also, upload never works, and the app shows no uploads. After update: No change, just getting ignored as usual. There are no problems with the community, or explore tab. Currently looking for a better wallpaper app.

I really like the app but I don't understand why I've paid for the upgrade, but it only reflects my purchase temporarily. Usually I'm able to use the "Restore Purchases" option to correct this issue, but this time it's not working and I'm unable to locate the transaction on Google Play under my subscriptions or anyplace else for that matter. I'm not sure what the problem is or where the issue stems from, but it's very annoying, frustrating, and inconvenient. Other than that, it's great!

07/15/24 - Wallpaper switches through my Favorites every 12 hours as I chose. Yay! 05/31/24 - wallpaper switching stopped working again! Doesn't switch. 05/06/24 - "Switch Walls Every" doesn't work. I have to to turn off/on Auto Switch everyday to make it switch as it commonly reverts back to Android stock wallpaper. Battery optimization is turned off. Set for 6 hours, it might switch once or twice in the day, but then stops and reverts back to Android stock wallpaper within a day or two.

Really lovely wallpaper app. I like it a lot, and I have paid for the premium version. One issue I have with it, though, is the auto switch feature. It's unreliable, and it tends to cycle through very few wallpapers, and not all of the "favorites" that I have selected.

After several months of use, an update to my initial post was in order. Original impressions earned it four stars. Access to the FULL featured version, thank you 'Play Pass', made this mandatory. Wallpaper apps are categorized, with little thought, as 'dime a dozen'. Given their due, these apps CAN impress. This app provides the 'pudding'; access to an enormous image library, precise individual image detail, TRUE download capability (you own it), value added in-app image organization, etc, etc.
