Peristyle

Peristyle

Simple wallpaper manager app for Android.

Why Peristyle?

Peristyle is created to be an extremely simple and sophisticated wallpaper manager and browser app for Android. It solves the problem of bloated apps with too many features which have very minimal support for locally stored wallpapers. You just wanted an app that allows you to browse, select, manage, and set your own locally stored wallpapers? Then Peristyle is for you :)

Features

• Simple architecture. Browse images and use the system wallpaper manager to set them as wallpapers.
• Multiple folders support.
• Ability to assign Tags to any wallpaper.
• Can scan .nomedia directories. Useful if you want to keep your wallpapers out of your gallery.
• Apply blur and color filters dynamically on any wallpaper before applying.
• Simple yet pretty animations with proper optimizations.
• Compress or reduce images on the fly.
• No ads, no tracking, no analytics, no internet permissions, no unnecessary permissions.
• Auto wallpaper change support with dedicated folders and tags for each screen.
• Change wallpaper using app's live wallpaper
• Edit and apply filters on wallpapers losslessly in realtime.
• Built-in live wallpaper picker.
• Built-in Wallhaven client for browsing and downloading wallpapers from the internet.
• Dark mode support.

Triggering AutoWallpaperService externally

Peristyle supports triggering the AutoWallpaperService externally using the following intent: app.peristyle.START_AUTO_WALLPAPER_SERVICE

You can use any automation or scheduling tool and create your own scenarios to change the wallpaper for any custom event such as locking, unlocking, etc.

Permission Usage

Peristyle needs MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE and READ_MEDIA_IMAGES to be allowed to show the system wallpapers in the app. This has been discussed in Issue #72.

The REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS permission is used to run the AutoWallpaperService whenever required.

Additionally, requires access to any wallpaper directories the user specifies.
