You just need to watch an ad to get 95% of the wallpapers in UHD. It's also not that expensive. ### 2/5 — Nice, but… *2025-12-04, version 1.4.0* Nice concept idea, but way too many adds… Indeed, we gotta watch 2 advertisements to download 1 full resolution wallpaper EVERYTIME. ### 4/5 — Color me surprised *2025-11-29, version 1.4.0* This is an edited review from one made soon after this apps release. Comparing this to similar wallpaper apps: - It offers more free wallpapers - Easier to navigate ui with less begging for subscriptions - Only full resolution images require watching an ad - Lower priced subscription to not have to watch ads Still, 12 USD a month with no annual options and no permanent non-subscription option is a lot of money, and I just don’t like subscriptions. ### 4/5 — Needs commitment *2025-10-30, version 1.3.5* This is a really good wallpaper app but it needs more commitment from the devs and more content. Sidenote: add Liquid Glass support please ### 3/5 — Please fix this *2025-10-20, version 1.3.5* I’m trying to watch an add it makes me watch it but then when I click the x button it does nothing I tried 3 times ### 2/5 — Barely any updates *2025-09-19, version 1.3.3* I download this app every month to see what’s new and it’s always the same wallpapers. Are they even updating it ### 5/5 — ʟɪᴋᴇ! 🎻 *2025-09-01, version 1.3.3* I love it. why do I love it. I never use it love it when I never use it. OK how do I post it but. I like the app. Submit. 😃😳🫩 ### 4/5 — Great but broken *2025-07-09, version 1.3.1* I love all the wallpapers the quality is awesome but when you click to watch an ad to get the high quality image once the ad finishes and gives you the X to close the ad to get your high quality image the X button doesn’t work :( I have tried on multiple different images and every one does not let me close the ad. Please fix this. ### 4/5 — Pretty good… *2025-07-08, version 1.3.1* They have some really cool stuff but there is premium stuff. But there is some cool stuff that’s not ### 2/5 — They very slow *2025-06-20, version 1.3.1* They very slow with adding new wallpaper, hardly any new ones ### 4/5 — Iffy *2025-06-09, version 1.3.1* It’s hard to find wallpapers that I would use a lot but they are still really good and I still use some ### 5/5 — Fixed *2025-06-02, version 1.3.1* much better compared to launch ### 3/5 — Can’t set *2025-05-31, version 1.3.1* Can’t apply wallpaper on iOS but it works on android. After downloading wallpaper there is ‘set wallpaper’. I am a bit surprised at this functional flaw considering the high quality bar Marque sets for others. This app isn’t ready for production. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Painfully amateurish *2025-12-02, version 1.4.0* Maybe now Mr Brownlee understands a little of the pain, blood, sweat, and tears that goes into developing an app, I feel no sympathy that his app is shutting down, the app is so slapdash that they’ve even allowed spelling errors to appear on their App Store screenshots, check out the “Flower & Sward” screenshot lol I think they mean “Sword”, in fact I’m certain of it because they mention “Spring Sword” below it, this app was never more than an attempted money grab using this man’s overrated notoriety, frankly this app is nothing but overpriced garbage. ### 1/5 — Struggle Bus *2025-11-27, version 1.4.0* It’s a struggle. Love the content, love the concept, love the artist…but the UI is a struggle for how simple this should be. ### 1/5 — Can’t download the wallpaper *2025-11-20, version 1.3.5* I watched the ad for higher res wallpaper however I can’t close the ad when i hit the X to get the “reward”. I tried it 2 times. I uninstalled after that because I didn’t want to keep watching ads for nothing in return. ### 1/5 — Trash *2025-11-06, version 1.3.5* Absolute garbage of an app. MKBHD sold out for this. It's embarrassing. ### 1/5 — Not working *2025-10-15, version 1.3.5* Just isn’t working maybe because I’m on iOS 26? ### 1/5 — Needs work *2025-09-16, version 1.3.3* Not good. ### 1/5 — Too much lag *2025-06-01, version 1.3.1* Why does the app lag? Over everything in the app lags and it takes a while to recognize key strokes during search. ### 1/5 — bad *2025-05-25, version 0.31* panels is horrible on ios 16 never lets me choose a creator just shows a grey screen bad app on ios 16 just use pinterest or google for wallpapers smh ### 1/5 — Just use Unsplash *2025-05-24, version 1.3.1* Waste of money and time since you’d have to watch an full res version in addition to simply having uninteresting artist curation ### 1/5 — Still disappointing and already abandoned - no updates in over 6 months! *2025-05-19, version 1.3.1* Trying to produce an app that’s the same on iOS/Android results in a dismal UX on iOS. Furthermore, ‘Featured Artist’, ‘Wallpaper of the Week’, etc. haven’t been updated in more than 6 months! This seems like a cheap money grab to help a decamillionaire buy more hypercars. MKBHD stated there would be frequent updates, but there hasn’t been an update in over 4 months now. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Dude this is amazing *2025-12-29, version 1.4.0* Bunch of ppl hate on this but it is the best wallpaper app I’ve used like dudeI’m not lying about this it is amazing keep making apps man good job keep your head up ### 5/5 — Way better than chrome wallpapers *2025-12-07, version 1.4.0* Genuinely only want to use wallpapers from this app because of the quality with it actually being free and not forcing you to make a account or pay ### 5/5 — So sad to see it go!!! *2025-12-02, version 1.4.0* It’s my favorite app!!! So sad to see it go!!! ### 5/5 — Great *2025-10-27, version 1.3.5* Great for causally great quality wallpapers. ### 5/5 — Rough start, but it’s great now! *2025-10-17, version 1.3.5* I enjoy the interface. Love being able to sift through the different artist and favorite different wallpapers. Love that most are now free with ads. I check it weekly for updates! ### 5/5 — Amazing App *2025-10-10, version 1.3.5* I never tried this app and the first wallpaper I ever tried was too good to be true ### 5/5 — They *2025-09-22, version 1.3.3* I dished ### 5/5 — This app is lwk fire *2025-09-21, version 1.3.3* Bro you made such a great app keep up the good work ### 5/5 — To MKBHD *2025-09-14, version 1.3.3* This is a really good wallpaper app! Thanks for listening to our complaints and making the app better and these wallpapers are great!! ### 5/5 — Perfect for Home Screens! *2025-09-11, version 1.3.3* As a free user of the app, this is everything I could hope for when customizing the Home Screen on my iPhone! I always have a pic of my cat as my Lock Screen, but never could find a pic for my Home Screen to go with it. It’s too blocked by apps to see every part of the picture, so I’d do a Google search for pics of flowers or something similar. None ever were perfect, and I found myself getting tired of the pic I’d found, but too lazy to search for more. This app takes all the work out of my hands! I’m instantly provided with a variety of colorful abstract photos to choose from and use! I never have to go searching, and the UI is so intuitive and clean. I’m very impressed, and so excited to have found this app! Now it’s exciting to change my Lock/Home Screen instead of it feeling like a chore. Plus finding new artists is always fun 🥰 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
