Frequently Asked Questions

What's the best wallpaper resolution for my device?

For smartphones, look for wallpapers that match your screen resolution. Modern phones typically use 1080x2400 or higher. For desktop computers, 1920x1080 (Full HD) or 3840x2160 (4K) are common resolutions.

Why does my wallpaper look blurry?

Blurry wallpapers usually occur when the image resolution is lower than your screen resolution. Always download wallpapers in the highest quality available for the best results.

Can I use the same wallpaper for both home and lock screen?

Yes, most devices allow you to set the same wallpaper for both screens. You can also choose different wallpapers for each screen if you prefer.

How do I fix wallpaper cropping issues?

When setting a wallpaper, use the pinch-to-zoom gesture to adjust the image size and position. Make sure to preview how it looks before applying to avoid unwanted cropping.

How often should I change my wallpaper?

This is entirely personal preference. Some people enjoy changing their wallpaper daily for fresh inspiration, while others prefer keeping the same wallpaper for months. Many devices now offer automatic wallpaper rotation features for variety.

Will high-resolution wallpapers affect my device's performance?

Modern devices are optimized to handle high-resolution wallpapers efficiently. However, if you notice any performance issues, try using a slightly lower resolution or disable any dynamic/live wallpaper features.
