I've had to reduce my rating here, as something changed within the app where the ability to choose orientation preferences has disappeared. I can't remember if this is a problem on desktops, but on mobile phones, I don't understand why this would be removed, as being able to pick mobile (see: vertical) wallpapers would be logical.

I love this App. Been using successfully for years. About 2 weeks ago I started having problems. I have a Samsung S10 and when I download a pic it's saying Success then a message saying 'download unsuccessful'. Always create work on the go via my mobile so upset. Contacted Samsung tech just now. Took nearly an hour but still unsuccessful at fixing problem so they told me to contact.
