Live wallpapers have been very popular on smartphones for many years and are available in large numbers in the Google Play Store. The new Wallpaper Engine app was recently launched. It should say something to Windows users in particular and is now expanding its range of functions to include smartphones: the app can be used to import the animated background images created for the desktop onto the smartphone.
The Wallpaper Engine is a very powerful tool that can be used to create animated background images for the Windows desktop. The customization options are very extensive, new images can be tinkered with images, videos and GIF animations and even games can be stored directly on the background and played. In the video below you can see what the wallpaper engine is capable of.
The app for Android has now been launched and can be downloaded from the Google Play Store for free and without any advertising or alternative financing methods. The app acts as a companion app for the smartphone and enables the live wallpapers created for Windows to be transferred to the Android smartphone. Apart from the import, it is also possible to create new animated background images from videos or GIF animations directly on the smartphone.
Wallpaper Engine’s mobile companion app allows you to easily transfer your collection of live wallpapers to your Android device. Connect with Wallpaper Engine for Windows and transfer your existing live wallpapers to the mobile application or imported local videos and GIFs and use them easily as a live background!
- Supports videos, GIFs and interactive 2D / 3D scenes as backgrounds.
