I had this wall paper on all of my previous phones, but then I just got the LG G3 which has a 2560x1440 resolution. Because the pixels are limited to only 30px wide, it looks kinda like crap. Having an option for high res phones would be nice. Still giving five stars though, because it's the best wallpaper I've ever used.

Its an awesome live wallpaper but it makes my home screen go black for at least 5 times in a row after I exit from an app. Also drains 30% battery overnight. Other than that I am very pleased with it so pls fix

This is my first app rating and I had to for this live wallpaper, it's that awesome. Most free live wallpapers have really limited settings, or bombard you with ads, this app does neither. It has great customization and no ads (that I've seen so far). Plus it just looks so cool! Amazing app all around, I wish all free live wallpapers were this well made.

This background is amazing! The background is light on the battery, is super customisable from almost every detail, and is the most perfect background I could ask for... Why did it take me so long to find this? Get this! I loved it and so will you! Digital tron rain. Big thumbs up to the dev.

Lowest res i tried was 400x600, which is horrible and even that didnt work. And you should define "big pictures". Also let people to put any picture they want, but with a crash warning.

by R####:

Love it. Really brightens up my desktop, with a reasonable amount of options. I have trails and multi colour. It doesn't seem to have hit battery life and works well without blocking out apps in the foreground.

Perfect I had it before I'm That type of person who would always change his background but I had this for over a year now first on my phone and now on my tablet and I haven't chances it ever since and I like how you can change the background to any pic you want.. Having issues with it now

Excellent live wallpaper... Extensive customization settings, allowing you to create a wallpaper in tune with you. No annoying push ads(disable ads via settings menu). Does not impact home screen performance much at all, unlike most live wallpapers. Highly reccomended download.

Just beautiful, I love it. Really like how customizable it is, and it looks like fireworks with a few tweaks! Default is amazing too tho, I love it. Any chance of a Daydream variant? but what's this ad for the Pixel Suite? I get no results when searching.

by R####:

Very simplistic but I like how you can customize the color and where it falls on your screen and if you want them to explode when you touch them...never had a glitching problem where they stopped moving

Y70%
by Y####:

This is an amazing wallpaper but it hasn't been updated since like 2012. I see great potential in this app but I guess the developer gave up on it but one of the main problems would have to be the slight stutter. Other than that this app is good. I just wish the developers would have kept up with it.

FYI: If I couldn't turn it off, I would have uninstalled after years of use.

Just got the official ics update. In the settings/color menu the colors aren't visible anymore from the list. You have to select "color 1" etc.. to tell which color is which.. Small issue, everything is great besides that. Been using off and on since Christmas and its my fav wallpaper.

It makes scrolling through my home screens very choppy on my Xperia PLAY, which is a shame :(

Just one problem, many options alone can crash it, so if you could remove some of the crashing options, thanks

I pick a custom image, but nothing ever shows up. Uber lame.

Love this LW, used it in the past too. There's a bug when you select a custom wallpaper, the app freezes. I need to flush app data for it to run again. Please fix this.

I just sit there poking my screen. It's like a game. Make more of these live papers sooooooo good!!!!!

Really nice live wallpaper. You can run multiple colors for different effects. Currently have it set to blue, green, red, and yellow drops for a nice Jellybean OS theme

Great little app, works flawlessly on S3 and it's free. Any chance we can get pixel bombs on the next version? :D

by R####:

no ADs. yet no complication, strait forward. simplicity. and look like have a low FPS. independent of configuration (unless if you set all in high)

But stopped working after I tried to set a custom background that crashed it every time I tried to set it, disappointed as its pretty cool. UPDATE: Did a restart and it seems to work fine now.

R70%
by R####:

It's cool, but when I want to use a custom wallpaper with the app, the entire live wallpaper freezes (even in the preview) and the toast with telling me it was 'successfully applied' stays on screen. Other than that it's really cool! P.S. I'm using nova launcher prime, I don't know if that's important

Put it this way, I have a slow, kind of crummy, phone. I have installed and uninstalled hundreds of LWP because the slow down my phone too much, this LWP I have had for a record-breaking three days, and I still love it!

Default live wallpapers are boring. I decided to test this one, and it's just awesome. I totally recommend this app, I will download it in my tablet too. Thanks and congratulations.

Amazing!! Simple but incredibly spectacular after all and has many variations! First wallpaper I did not uninstall immediately after try! Use quite slight battery, I'm gonna use it for long time! Thanks!

If you want an interesting live wallpaper than this is the one to get. It's so customizable that it's almost ridiculous and almost like having a game run in the background. However, it will affect your phone's performance a slight bit. It constantly takes up 30 ish megabytes of ram running in the background but it's SOOOOOOOO worth it. If you love interesting things and you have prefomance to spare, get this.

Looks great and lots of options!! My problem is, FORCE CLOSE when picking picture for CUSTOM BACKGROUND. Otherwise, perfect!!! 2/7/16... Still does it on different device.

Q70%
by Q####:

It's a great app! It's just that I can't set my own background image. Everytime I try it crashes. I would give it five stars if it didn't crash.....

You should make it so like if your battery is low its red, if its halfway orange, if its all the way or almost green.

Looks absolutely stunning, live the configurations you can change and nothing intrusive. Truly not just a great wallpaper but you can tell amazing developers as well

Q70%
by Q####:

it's a little too bland in my opinion, and can be quite hard to tell it's a live wallpaper (compared to others) if you have quite a few widgets on the screen. On the plus side it does not require any special permissions and can be customized. Slighlty disappointed and I am uninstalling ***UPDATE: I HAVE HEARD THAT BECAUSE THE PIXEL SIZE OF RAIN HAS A MAXIMUM SIZE, ON HIGH RESOLUTION (2k) DISPLAYS IT CAN LOOK QUITE BAD - SO COULD BE BETTER ON 720P OR 1080P PHONES***

I've used this on numerous devices over the years, it's my absolute favourite wallpaper. The customization options are plentiful, the image is crisp, just a really beautiful piece of programming.. If you can afford the battery usage lol.. I don't use it on my cell for this reason, but I have an android headunit in my truck and as very happy to get this back in my life!

I'm on a Sony Xperia Z1s and cannot use a custom background behind the rain. Every time I pick the image from my gallery it force stops. I showed this background to my friend who's on a Galaxy S3 and is having the same issue. We're trying to use our favorite sports teams as backgrounds behind the rain with their colors. Fix this issue and I'll rerate it at 5 stars!
