I've been using this app since 2013 and initially rated it 5 stars. However, I recently noticed significant changes that have made me uncomfortable. The app now alters my phone's wallpaper background without permission when I download a picture. Additionally, it uploads all the photos from my gallery. I feel that my privacy may be compromised and no longer trust the app. I'm concerned about potential breaches of my personal data and its overall safety.

After giving it a 5-star review in 2013 , I am now dropping it to a single star. I can not search for what I want with the search bar. It just takes me to the categories as soon as I click on the search bar to try to enter anything. Then, when I get to the categories, it will only let me see those labeled with the first few letters of the alphabet. This app is in no way user-friendly anymore. I will have to look elsewhere for great images like I used to find here. VERY DISAPPOINTED.

I used to have this app for years and it was my go-to for all sorts of backgrounds. But in the recent years, what I assume is supposed better upgrades, are actually nuisances. There are no real categories to search. Instead, you have to sort through tags or creators. In order to download or share it forces you to log in or sign up, and only with a Google account or your Facebook. You get no other option. It went from a fun, awesome app to basically a waste of storage.

I've been using this app since 2012. The first rating I gave was 5 stars but it's been only getting worse. Today I finally decided to uninstall it. The quality of the pictures has gotten worse, the variety and beauty of pictures as well. Also, the UI is not as easy to navigate through. I hate that there are no given categories anymore. It's unfortunate that after 10 years it's come to a point that I have to uninstall the app

I loved using this, it had heaps of beautiful wallpapers, easy to scroll through, it would show you the pictures full size. And all could be downloaded without an account. But after the latest update this is all gone. I can't figure out how to even search. Can't see pictures full size. Scrolling through them is not user friendly. And now I have to sign in to download anything. No thanks! You had a great little app. Now it's ruined as far as I'm concerned.

I have been using this app for quite a few years. Gave it 4 stars back then. But after the recent update, I downloaded several images only to find out that only the last one remained in the gallery. The images are being overwritten, not saved separately. Huge disappointment and waste of almost 2 hours time.

Great Screensaver app. Good compilation of different scenes in all catagores. The updates meet expectations, and the enhancements over all are great Advertising; people need to understand that this is the way for developers to get paid for the services they provide to the community. Ask yourselves; Do you want to create or develope something and then put it to market for free or just give it away? So, the design of the app, interface, easy to understand and the exterior looks great 👍👍👍👍👍

Photos are good, but now its spammed with nude women on every genre. Really annoying. EDIT: I redownload today. Way better than before, the previous issue mentioned above seems to be fixed. Pictures are mostly in the generes they belong. Good quality, beautiful pictures. An ad every 5 or 6 downloads, but it doesn't feel obnoxious.

Don't like the changes. It used to be easier use. Now it's just too complicated and time consuming looking for something you like. Also, I had gotten it because I like to download backgrounds. Now it's just become another Facebook app, with people uploading personal photos of themselves. That needs to change.

I really loved this App and used it since 2015! But when I opend this App after not using it for 2 weeks, it changed completely! I really don't like this App anymore! Before it was really great and simple to use. I just needed to see "RECENT ". Now it is very complicated! I don't have time, to search in many categories for pictures! I am very sorry, but it's so annoying, I'm deleting it! Sometimes "improvements " are not improving!
