After buying a new smartphone, what usually follows is customizing its interface to look appealing. The very first thing people tend to change is the wallpaper. It is the first thing that attracts people attention when turning on their smartphone for the first time. It also acts as a background image for other interface within the device. In some smartphones or third-party app launchers, it even act as a background image for the app drawer.
Changing the wallpaper of an Android phone is easy. There are lot of wallpapers usually pre-loaded by manufacturers to choose from, but most of the time, these wallpapers look awful and does not match the colour of the notification bar, icons, and other elements within the user interface of the device. Falling below expectations, people tend to search online for new wallpaper to download or simply use their own picture as the wallpaper.
