Feed Pics Live Wallpaper for Android
-------tl;dr can't scale images to fit screen, but it's the only app like it. (that I've found)------- This app is exactly what I was looking for, it provides a customisable way to change your wallpaper using images from constantly updated feeds giving your phone a fresh feeling without sacrificing too much battery or memory as many other lwp's tend to do. The only complaint I've got (though it is a fairly major one) is that there's no way to fit the images to your screen size. I can understand not optimizing the app for a particular screen size, android is after all insanely diverse hardware wise, but would it really have been so hard to have a scale to fit function? I hope not, and I hope it's implemented into a future update (maybe even a donate version?) to make a good app great.
Great, thanks. The main feature I would like to see implemented is an option to allow change only on wi-fi, some of us pay connection per Mb.
Needs to refresh to a new pic first of all and second if it did every 30 secs would bee great.
Something is wrong with the refresh intervals. it use to work and now it barely works. Needs update!
Great idea, unfinished. It pulls the irst image from an RSS feed, and then it never chnges. I ca't wait to se if this gets fixed. Shorter/longer intervals needed (even i just to see if it works! Would love to save multiple feeds, and shuffle them, or switch them without retyping URLs. I hope this wallpaper project gets polished up. Would pay for more features!
Have it running on my old defy, my new LG Optimus Spirit and my Asus Transformer Prime. Froyo, Gingerbread and ICS. Works best on the LG and the only problem I have with the tablet is some of the image quality which isn't the app's problem. First app I tell everyone to get.
Wallpapers are of low quality. Doesn't work properly
Great app! I was wondering if its possible for it to go through older tumblr posts, not just show the newest post.
No matter what feed i use, custom or pre-defined, no images ever download. Just get the logo as a wallpaper. (yes, my connection works)
What a waste of data. It didn't open. I have an Ideos. Can't even find the icon for it in my app menu.
Cant find in my app menu. -droid
This app won't allow me to even open it.
It was working but now seems broken
Would be nice if longer refresh cycle times were available, but that's a miner quibble. Beyond that, I'm happily getting a new Wallpaper all the time. Yay. For those who rated it low because it didn't open - read the info. It's not a standalone app, it's a live wallpaper. Once you install it, just go to your "Wallpaper" setting and select "Live Wallpaper". "Feed Pics Live" will be one of the options there.
