Set a mandala as your wallpaper

1. Choose the screen

To decide how the mandala fills the screen first, use Save in the top bar instead: choose “This screen”, then “Whole” or “Fill”, and tap “Wallpaper” there.

2. Home and lock as a pair (Pro)

“Home and lock, as a pair” sets the same mandala on both screens, with the home screen a little darker so your icons stay readable. The slider sets how bright the home screen stays. Tap “Set both”.

3. A live wallpaper (Pro)

Choose “Live wallpaper”. The mandala fills the screen and turns slowly. You can also let it breathe, let its colours drift or change its palette every ten minutes. Tap “Set live wallpaper”.

5. A new wallpaper every morning (Pro)
