The wallpaper on your smartphone might not be deemed a valuable entity but is quite an essential aspect in your day-to-day life as it’s the first thing you interact with when turning ON your phone and it also gives your phone a new look every time you change it. While some of us can be real nitpicky about the wallpapers that we choose, a majority of users are unenthusiastic and are least bothered about changing the wallpaper on their phone.
Luckily, for both sets of people, there are now apps that can change up your phone’s background on a regular basis. The following list of some of the best apps can help you set a new wallpaper on your smartphone after a given amount of time or on a certain timed schedule.
