Hello friends! It's been a minute, and if you see this, you are the real MVP! I've been hard at work with a MAJOR OVERHAUL, making all the changes many of you requested. I pray it was worth the wait!
Completely redesigned
The app looks completely new because I remade every part of it. I removed old designs, added 500+ new designs, and gave the app a modern look.
Download Button
On every wallpaper, look in the bottom right for a dedicated download button. This will make it much easier, and gone are the days when you had to tap and hold to download.
Search bar
Finally, a search bar! This was one of the most requested features. Search for quotes, Bible verses, devos, videos, etc. You can also try typing out the verse, verse reference, topic, and more.
Collections
Curated by design or topic. Feel free to download an entire collection and then make it an auto-rotating wallpaper. See our tutorials section for how to do that! This was also a highly requested feature.
Devos BETA
A growing list of Bible-based devotionals, each with an audio version. We will continue to add more of these as time goes on. Let me know if you like them!
Explore page
This section is another way to find content. Search by topic, search by background image or browse featured collections.
Videos BETA
Devotional & voiceover videos by myself, Ryan Maher & also my good friend, Marcus Stanley. I make a lot of content like this for social media and thought it would be a blessing to include it. So let me know if it is a blessing to you.
Listen BETA
Sometimes I want to sit back and listen to Scripture over soothing ambient music. If you are like me, I pray this blesses you. So grab some headphones and allow Scripture to speak to you.
Favorites
Updated favorites section. Look for the bookmark icon at the top right of every wallpaper.
iPad-specific images
We have added a bunch of iPad-specific content, perfect for Landscape & Portrait modes. Much more is coming soon.
Text to a Friend
If you find a wallpaper you like, tap and hold an image to copy it, then text it to a friend. Super easy to do.
Tutorial videos
Need help making your wallpapers auto-rotate or shuffle? Well, I have a video for that! Want to download a collection and have them change every time you pick up your phone? I got you. Look for the tutorial videos in the More section.
Feedback
Please get in touch with me via Email in the app with suggestions, questions, wallpaper ideas, etc. I would love to hear from you! The contact me button is in the More section.
Thankful for each of you, and I pray this update is a blessing to you!
God bless,
Ryan Maher
