You might be using wallpapers to make your screens less boring, to boost your mood, or to send a nice visual message to someone. The message they’re often using is ‘Say it with a wallpaper’ which sounds like a cool idea, especially around special days.

If the person you send it to applies it on their smartphone background they will think of you, every time they use their phone.

Are live wallpapers safe for your battery?
This is probably one of the biggest concerns and the main reason why some people avoid using this type of phone personalization. It’s a bias leftover in our minds from the early live wallpapers’ era.

Wave Live Wallpapers has hit the nail on the head to deliver an animated backgrounds app optimized for battery use. If you wonder what this means, the explanation is simple. The live wallpapers don’t run in the background when you joggle with other apps, or your screen is off. It only uses the same amount of battery life you need while watching a video, only while you are looking or interacting with the wallpaper. So if you don’t already have battery issues, you should be safe to start using live wallpapers.
