Wallflow - Living Wallpapers

Introduction promotion: until August 1st, 75% off all content packs!

Wallflow is a single app that bundles dozens of self-contained living wallpapers behind one tidy gallery - generative visuals, retro CRT phosphor pieces, self-playing arcade and pinball demos, and photo-backed wallpapers that animate your own pictures. Pick one, tweak it with real sliders, apply it. Every wallpaper is drawn live on your device - no server, no account, no analytics, no ads.

FREE TO START, BUY ONLY WHAT YOU WANT

The app is free to install and comes with a free Starter pack: three hand-picked wallpapers, one from each major style, yours forever with no purchase. Apply them to your home screen with no time limit and no nag screens.

The rest of the catalogue is grouped into small themed packs you can buy individually:

• Photos Vol. 1 - your own photos as living wallpapers
• Arcade Vol. 1 - self-playing arcade and pinball scenes
• Calm & Organic Vol. 1 - slow, breathing ambient visuals
• Energy & Neon Vol. 1 - high-contrast neon scenes
• Retro-tech Vol. 1 - cellular automata, oscilloscopes, attractors

Each pack is a single one-time in-app purchase - no subscription, no ads, no recurring fees. Buy only the packs you want; buy them once on your Google account and they stay unlocked on every device you sign into. A Restore button re-applies your purchases on a new device.

• 3D Photo - parallax depth derived from a single photo
• Living Sky - animated weather over your photo's sky
• Holographic, Slideshow, and more

DEEP CUSTOMISATION

Every wallpaper has its own settings panel. Sliders for speed, density, colour, glow, scanlines, CRT curvature, chromatic aberration, noise - they update live in the preview and on the home screen. Reset to defaults whenever you like.

THREE APP-WIDE PREFERENCES

• Maximum frame rate - capped against your panel's real refresh rate.
• Parallax with homescreen - wallpapers pan gently as you swipe pages.
• Ignore power save mode - useful on devices (some OnePlus / OxygenOS builds, certain Xiaomi profiles) that keep "power save" permanently on and would otherwise freeze every live wallpaper.

PRIVACY AND PERFORMANCE

• No analytics, no ads, no tracking, no account.
• No location, no contacts, no microphone, no camera.
• The only network traffic the app makes is the Google Play Billing handshake used to verify your Pro purchase. There is no custom server and no telemetry endpoint.
• Photo-backed wallpapers use the system photo picker - Wallflow only ever sees the photos you explicitly hand it.
• Hardware-accelerated rendering with a software fallback. Pauses when the screen is off or the wallpaper is not visible.

REQUIREMENTS

Android 7.0 (API 24) or newer. AGSL shader effects (CRT curvature, chromatic aberration) require Android 13 (API 33) or newer; on older versions the visuals fall back to software-rendered approximations.

A handful of wallpapers may not be available on devices without a GPU that supports hardware-accelerated canvas; the gallery hides anything your device cannot run.
