You unlock your device multiple times in a day. Every time you unlock your device, the wallpaper is staring right in your eyes. Why bore your eyes (and of course mind) with same wallpaper, again and again, eh? Rather, feast your eyes with beautiful wallpapers.
No need to search for new wallpapers every time you want to change the wallpaper, instead download background and wallpaper app for your Android device. You might be wondering, “There are so many apps in the Play store, how do I know which is the best?”
Well, what are we for? We present to you a handpicked collection of best wallpaper apps for your Android device.
Let’s get started.

Backdrops
Updated almost daily with new wallpapers, Backdrops is a must have if you like changing your wallpapers regularly.

Wallpapers HD – Pixels

Organized under 20+ categories such as Flower, Food & Drink, Landscape, Lifestyle, Minimalism etc, the images are licensed under CC0 (Creative Commons Zero) which means you can copy and modify the images without their permission.

Walli
Walli is different. I say that because it doesn’t provide the usual bunch of wallpapers from the known categories, rather, Walli lists high-quality creative wallpapers made by artists. There are no “photographs”, instead all the wallpapers are hand crafted by artists and designers around the world. Listed under different categories, the app provides you the link to the artist profile page. However, the app requires you to create an account before you can download or use the image as a wallpaper.
Mysplash – Photography and wallpaper
Mysplash, powered by the Unsplash.com, which is a website that lists high-resolution photos that can be used for free, has a beautiful collection of wallpapers. Other than setting an image as a wallpaper for your device, you can even share wallpaper from the app. Moreover, you can search and download raw photos as well.
