Google : Live Wallpapers UI UX

Doodle is an open-source Android app that provides colorful live wallpapers with auto-dark mode and power-efficient animations.

The wallpapers are based on the original Doodle live wallpaper collection of the Google Pixel 4. Additionally, there is an exclusive "Material You"-inspired live wallpaper included.



The app is not just a copy of the original wallpapers, it's a complete rewrite without the permanent animations to save battery and storage space. In addition, there are many customization options to match your preferences.


Features:

• Stunning wallpaper designs and Pixel feeling

• System dependent dark mode

• Power-efficient parallax effect on page swipe or when tilting the device

• Optional zoom effects

• Direct boot support (immediately active after device restart)

• No ads and no analytics

• 100% open-source


Advantages over original Pixel 4 live wallpapers:

• Permanent animations (when tilting the device) are optional

• Support for Android 12 color extraction

• Exclusive "Material You"-inspired live wallpaper

• No battery-hungry 3D engine

• Improved text contrast (dark text for light themes instead of white text with shadow)

• Support for Android 11 zoom effect

• Many additional customization options

• Rendering works well even on less powerful devices (very efficient rendering engine)

• Also suitable for larger devices like tablets (scaling option available)

• Tiny installation size
