Backgrounds Wallpapers Free

About this app

Backgrounds is a fast, free wallpaper app with thousands of hand-reviewed HD images — and a genuinely good way to find the one you want. FIND SOMETHING YOU LOVE • Thousands of high-resolution wallpapers, every one reviewed before it appears • Browse 50+ categories: nature, space, minimalist, dark, city, abstract, cars, animals, quotes, gradients and many more • Browse by color — tap a swatch and see only wallpapers whose dominant color matches, from deep blues to soft pastels • Sort anything by Latest or Popular • Search a huge stock photo library right inside the app • Seasonal categories appear as the date approaches, so Christmas and Halloween wallpapers show up when you actually want them — not in July SAVE IT IN ONE TAP Tap Save and the full-resolution image goes straight to your Photos library.
