Here are 5 apps to upgrade your Android’s wallpaper from “meh” to “must-have” — and they’re all available to download from the Google Play store.

  1. Wallpaper Changer

Wallpaper Changer is a great app if you want to use your own photos as backgrounds. This is a more personalized approach than an automatic generator, and it doesn’t take much more time to customize. Simply choose your favourite photos in Albums, then decide how frequently you want the wallpaper to change. The app will take care of the rest.

  1. Wallpapers

Wallpapers by Google is a great app for choosing a new, incredible photo to be your wallpaper. You can pick a favorite category on the app to start each day with a new wallpaper. Select images from Google Earth, Google+, your personal photos, or others to be your new background images.

  1. Wallmax

Wallmax has thousands of high-quality wallpapers to choose from, and their database is growing everyday. They have every theme you can think of. Searching through their backgrounds is very user-friendly, too. You can type in keywords, browse through categories, or simply scroll at random until you find wallpapers that appeal to your personal aesthetic.

  1. 500 Firepaper

If your passion is photography, then 500 Firepaper is the Android wallpaper app for you. Pulling its photos from 500px, the app automatically switches between beautiful images from every country. By the day’s end, you’ll feel like you’ve take a trip around the world!

  1. Tapet

Tapet is perfect for Android users who prefer abstract wallpapers. These patterned backgrounds are custom generated for your unique device, using math formulas and the screen’s resolution. Tapet’s designers claim to offer an infinite number of wallpapers, so you won’t have the same design twice.
