This is such an awesome app. I've designed and made my homescreen EXACTLY how I want it, showing all the information I want in the way that I want. Creating custom screens is fairly easy to learn. You can start off simply and then move on to more complex configurations as you go. Plus there are a lot of great premade screens already if you prefer.
I'm currently experiencing an issue with not being able to interact with any touch function after upgrading to the pixel 4xl Android 12 January update. As well as the date/time no longer update either. There was no issue on Android 12 with the December patch. Other than the app breaking after this update, it used to work great and I had no complaints. I'm hoping for a fix soon.
The interface is lacking in user friendly options such as drag and drop positioning and there aren't many presets to work with. Don't get me wrong; this is a fascinating and powerful tool that I'm enjoying quite a bit, but I don't think the free version warrants a higher rating right now. Would have been four stars but I started getting ads in the work area which squish the viewing area for the wallpapers to the point I have to squint. Find a better place to put the ads!
This is an incredible app. My only gripes are minor bugs, like placement in the editor does not look the same applied to the home screen, or numbers in the calendar I made showing different numbers than what is displayed in the text preview. It would also be nice to have an option to move a shadow around an object instead of pushing the object to fit the center, and the option to add animations to layers that aren't directly in root. Text gvs also do not update from within Komponents.
I'm really impressed with the features, the intuitive design, and what is possible with this app. The level of control and customization is really unrivaled. It's very intuitive from my point of view. Everything flows nicely, tools are clear with what their purpose is, and navigation is a breeze. I made a custom theme in a day with absolutely no experience. I am happy to support an amazing product!
When it works, it works. But it goes so in depth that it's hard to use on a phone. The menus are not structured very well but if you can figure it out, it does work. I wish I could download a windows computer version of this app to make my phone wall paper, because the app is very tight and clunky on a phone. But the app goes very in depth and as long as your willing to spend the time, you can literally make your wall paper be or do anything you can imagine.
Wonderful tool. Gives me damn near limitless freedoms. There are a few suggestions I have. 1. When rotating an item the item retains a large detection box. For example a 45° rotated rectangle retains a large hit box from the two furthest points in a square shape. It should have a hit box the same shape it is, or at least the option. 2. More animation options, specifically start and end point for scrolling objects and text. It's difficult to get smooth text scrolling. Will give more feedback.
The app was recognizing "YouTube Music" as the preferred music player, but not any more. It is not even an option any more in the settings, as it was before. Can you guys tell me how to fix this; or is it a bug that you will fix with an update. I already installed & reinstalled. Edit Thanks for the feed back..
It's a good concept but the overall user experience is only average at best. The "widgets" (i'm referring to the interactive options in the wallpaper app) update only once a second, as a result the music widgets doesn't create a smooth progress bar instead it creates a bar that only updates once a second and due to that it does not look as premium as it should. The "widgets" aren't as responsive as the launcher again. Isn't it possible to overcome the refresh rate problem with root?
This is an incredibly powerful app which along with tracker should be in everyone's most buy. The only issue I have is the difficulty in learning how to use it fully. If you are not put off by this and use YouTube or Google for help you will be well rewarded with a customised home screen for every occasion. Apart from my knowledge of the app the only issue I've had is not being able to activate and deactivate 3rd party widgets depending on which file you have. I do not believe it can do this.
This app has let me make the most wonderous customized wallpapers easily and I have only barely scratched the surface of what it is capable of. The only single issue I could see with this is that when your phone's storage gets too full (90% space used or so) it starts reverting to a default wallpaper, so keep your phones clean or get more space, because provided you have time to spare and a creative muscle to excercise, this app will do just the trick for you. ー 492/500 characters used.
Pretty powerful app, perfect for fully customising my phone. Only 2 things i would want adding: I would like the ability to change the refresh rate of the formula timers, they only refresh once a second, but if it could be increased, formulas could be used to animate things that arent animatable. The other one is to be able to change the transparency of a selected colour in an image. I keep looking for this because it could add a greater depth to the wallpapers but csn never find it.
If you spend the time and effort designing your own personal background you will have a unique experience that will completely change how you interact with your phone. There are many resources and tutorials that will let you figure out how to do many things. This app single handedly made me love Android over iOS. I only wish I had discovered this app much earlier. The app makes it so easy to copy and paste great ideas you find and then change them in a way to match your style. I'm still learning many new things. I could spent hours designing my background. Best app hands down.
A truly must-have app, KLWP exemplifies exactly what makes Android so amazing - customization. In my case, I wanted my lock screen to display the artwork of the song that is playing, but on my phone (Galaxy S10e), this is not built-in to the ROM, like it is on stock devices. With KLWP, however, I was able to make it identical to how it behaves and looks on stock. This app is pure magic. Endless customization options and features.
My overall experience was good. It's very customisable which you would expect from an app like this, it has blur options, animation options, and a very flexible formula system that lets you do a lot of things such as automatically show the name of the music app you're using for music live wallpapers, etc. My only real problem is the fact that you can export your preset for free but to import it back you need pro. Kustom is good when it comes to out-of-period refunds, though, so you should be OK.
Great app for personalisation, easy to use advanced editor with so many features, (KWGT is easier to use overall) but coding with globals could've been simpler. Edit: Regards! I was going to create a sidebar with globals, but it doesn't seem to function well although it was coded properly, also, I wanted to create a button shape which changes color forth and back, also doesn't seem to function although the coding was made properly. Please fix asap. Still a solid 5-star though
Fantastic app for customization of home screen. The controls are a bit hard at first, but once you get used to them they are fine. They can be basic and simple or complex if you know what you are doing. My only complaint is that on a lock screen, all that shows is the wallpaper, not what else I have created in it. Edit: developer responded in less than a day and told me what I was doing wrong. No complaints with this app.
Animated gif have the following bugs (1) gif stops playing even though loop is selected (2) Height in sizing option doesn't work.(3) if you put the gif on top of shape, the scaling of the gif becomes distorted and also stops the gif playback permanently. And the only way to fix that is to clear all data.These are the bugs so far.Great app though I guess we'll have to wait for stable updates
EDITED> Really good app but it seems like note9 screens aren't supported. It used to work but now everything shifts even when you fix it. I'm sure if you had less boxes and squares and images it would be easier but i had 50-100 parts i'd have to move around randomly. Will try and get it fixed but until then the app is ok... it lasted a long time for me.
love the app, but wanna report that it seems like android 12's accent color feature breaks it (specifically on a google pixel 6, if that matters). every time i try to set it to the adaptive colors that take from a wallpaper, my custom wallpaper freezes and stops working. hopefully not too long before theres a fix for this, but yeah it appears to be specifically the new accent color under "wallpapers and style" feature that breaks it.
Tried to apply a download, didn't work. Paid for pro key only to find that to get full functionality, I need to get nova and some other app to make it all work. This is not to ask for help, it's to inform anyone else interested in the app of my experience with it. I had to install nova to get it to apply the wallpaper/theme. Developer says it works with pretty much any UI, but it doesn't with Samsung. The wallpaper applies, but nothing functions.
Awesome app! Dont give up on it! Has a bit of a learning curve but once you start playing around with unlocked prebuilt lwp's you will start getting the hang of it. I chose the hard way... Chose a locked lwp and copied all settings,essentially rewriting it. I also added ne functions and features since i was getting the hang of how to use it. It was really daunting at first,but as i played with it i learned. I chose a fallout lwp because i am a huge fallout nut. That is what drove me to learn.
This is an excellent app, but an issue I am having with it is the wallpapers go past the bottom of the screen on my Note 9 on all of the aspect ratio choices. EDIT: Changing the scale on the layer tab allowed the Live Wallpaper to fit nicely on the screen. You'll have to experiment and see what works for you.
There's no other live wallpaper app that lets you use your own gif and make it scrollable without having to crop/stretch. Took a little bit of tinkering to figure things out and there was a slight issue where the wallpaper didn't show correctly until locking and unlocking the screen but after all that everything works exactly how I want it. Couldn't be happier.
Fun to use this app to create and edit. Only 3 stars because I've experienced some bugs, such as my wallpaper not changing to reflect new customization's I've done within the app, and for some reason I can't make more than 4 items...Not sure if it's because i'm limited for using the free version but was lame. c'est la vie i guess *edit* Works fine now restarted phone and dl app again
Your latest update has stopped my lockscreen from displaying album art and album information when playing from YouTube music, yet it somehow still works for Google Play Music. As an edit, it appears YT Music updated recently as well, and the lockscreen player identifies YouTube and other audio players. So it seems the issue is KLWP not receiving audio information from YouTube Music. Is there a way to fix this? Edit: I was afraid of that, hopefully they fix it soon. I appreciate your response.
Honestly the best custom live wallpaper app there is. Well.. I'm not a beta tester so shouldn't be experiencing any problems to do with exports since the notification update. So you'd think. Like, I'll click on an item in the list and it'll have no sub-item tab when it should do. So far on the latest update there's opacity issues & issues with some of the items not showing up in the list. Wish I'd turned auto update off now cause my setup is fairly complex. Will update to 5🌟 again once fixed.
I've been using KLWP for a little over a year now and it's absolutely essential for me at this point. You can basically make your background look like and do anything! I had music notes floating around whenever a song was playing, and this little thing just added so much more to the experience of using a phone. Fair warning, there is a steep learning curve, but once you've figured it out, the possibilities are endless
One of my favorite apps ever! Im so addicted, I use it daily. It gives you the ability to FULLY customize your home screen to really anything you could possibly imagine. Its a little confusing but SO worth it to learn. There's also tons of amazing presets to choose from on the play store that other people have already made and are ready to use if you don't have the time or patience to make your own. Presets are how I taught myself to use the app, too! One of a kind app, nothing like it!
