Dive into the Deep with Wallpaper Wednesday

Don’t let your home screen fall into a rut — switch out your wallpaper!

You don’t have to pull out a complex new theme like Deadpool to bring a breath of fresh air to your home screen. A new wallpaper can do wonders, and launchers like Action Launcher can re-theme your entire home screen around a good wallpaper. In our effort to help brighten your device — and maybe your day — we’re compiling some wallpapers for you to try out.

If you’ve got a wallpaper you use everywhere, share it in the comments below! We’re always looking for something new. Now get your wallpaper picker ready and see what’s in store this week.

Batman Circuitry by EchoLeader

Batman v Superman is coming up, and rest assured we are hard at work at some wonderfully dark superhero themes, but in the meantime, that doesn’t mean we can’t share some excellent wallpapers for the Dark Knight and the Man of Steel. This digital background brings to mind the system Bruce Wayne and Lucius Fox used in The Dark Knight. Except, y’know, without the law-breaking intrusion into the lives and privacy of millions of users…

Starfish Stones

The subdued tones of the natural scene give a soothing peacefulness to the home screen. And amid our chaotic lives, don’t we need a small dose of peace in our pockets? This wallpaper pairs well with most home screen layouts, and lends itself especially well to tablets and wider-screen devices.

Heart Stone

This is another natural wallpaper that works well on wider-screen devices, but it’s got a little more heart to it. Yes, I just did that. I have no shame. This background has a little warmer tone to it, which we could all use as we wait for spring to finally arrive.

Pretty Rose Quartz, ne?

Canal City by ryky

The vibrance of the city’s lights contrasts with the shadows of the canals beautifully in a wallpaper that evokes romantic nights and elaborate masquerades. When gazing at this wallpaper, I find myself humming lilting love songs and swaying with the gentle waves. Find some cazone napoletana ringtones and take a little trip to Italy every time you wake your phone up.

Flowers and Thorns by GreenKiwiOfDoom

This wallpaper is reminiscent of the kimino-inspired wallpaper we had last week, but this radiant ruby beauty stands out much more. This is also a wallpaper that can be set in its original landscape format or turned to portrait for a strong gradient on your home screen as you fade from the brighter flowers to the bloody red thorns below.
