6 Android apps that let you make custom wallpapers


6 Android apps that let you make custom wallpapers
 While the selection of wallpapers that are available for Android is so vast that we wouldn’t be wrong in calling it endless, sometimes you want to have a wallpaper that’s exclusively yours - perhaps a photo of your significant other, of your kid(s), of your pet(s), or the photo of a landscape that you’re truly proud of. Luckily, Android is the most customizable OS to ever grace a smartphone or tablet, so
there are plenty of applications that let you make your own wallpapers.

Of course, you can always set your photos as wallpapers from your phone’s default gallery app, but the applications that we’re presenting below provide more options - thus a higher level of personalization.

Do you often make custom wallpapers for your Android phone or tablet? Let us know in the comments!

6 apps that let you make personalized Android wallpapers

1. Photo Grid - Collage Maker

As its name suggests, this is a collage maker application, but nothing stops you to take the collages that you’ve made and use them as wallpapers. Photo Grid is an excellent app, providing lots of layouts, backgrounds, filters, and even funny or cute stickers that you can add to your collages (or to individual image, if that’s what you wish). Once your creations are ready, you can find them in your device’s gallery (they should be stored in a folder called Photo Grid). From there, you can set them as wallpapers the same way you’d set any other photo. Photo Grid - Collage Maker is free, with in-app purchases.

2. Photo Collage Maker

Yep, this is another photo collage maker, though it offers different templates, frames, stickers, and ways to gather your photos together. Just like the previously presented app, this one saves your collages in your phone’s gallery, making it easy for you to set them as wallpapers.

3. Neon Custom Wallpaper Maker

Wildly popular among iOS users, Neon Custom Wallpaper Maker comes with its own wallpapers, but it also lets you use photos from your gallery. The app is free, and includes more than 30 fonts with various effects that you can add to wallpapers. The video on the left shows a demo of the app’s iOS version, but it works pretty much the same way on Android.

4. MultiPicture Live Wallpaper

MultiPicture can display different images on each of your homescreen’s screens. It has a ton of options, and various transition effects that look pretty cool whenever you swipe through the homescreen and images are changed.

5. Wallpaper Changer

This app runs as a live wallpaper, letting you set a timer to automatically change the images that you want to see as wallpapers. Images can be changed at intervals of minutes, hours, or even days. You can edit each image that you’re using, or apply the same effect to all images.

Download (free with in-app purchases).

6. Photo FX Live Wallpaper

Photo FX Live Wallpaper is free, but to fully unlock its potential you’ll pretty much have to buy the Pro version. The app lets you select any photos in order to make a slideshow that will act as your live wallpaper. You can change the slideshow interval, background color, photo opacity, and more.
