Description

Material Islands™ is a Minimal and Material design inspired semi-live wallpaper that does not drain your battery or eat up your RAM.

Material & Minimalistic

Choose among several different, individually unique and beautifully minimalistic islands for your homescreen. Feeling forest-y? 🌲 Go with Isle of Trees! Feeling that anger boiling? Maybe Isle of Lava is more fitting! 🔥 Sitting on the subway? 🚆 Isle of Urbanity is probably a good fit! More islands are constantly being worked on as the artist Jenny Hanell finds the time to do so.

Live wallpaper without the battery drain 🔋

From the very beginning Material Islands was built to have an as small as possible impact on both your RAM and battery. The islands are not doing any superfluous animations that make your device stutter but instead are silently updated in the background so that anytime there's a redraw ready it has already happened! Forget 60 FPS, with Material Islands it is more like a handful frames a day!

Daytime, Nighttime, Anytime 🌄🌃

Your chosen island follows you through the day! While you're getting ready in the morning the Isle of Ice is still warming up from the night. When you are leaving the office for the day it looks like the party at the Isle of Paradise has already started. When you are refreshing the stream of your social network of choice for the last time late at night the Isle of Sand has already long fallen asleep.

Superdupersharp

Every Material Island is rendered straight from raw code, pixel-by-pixel right on your device ensuring a supersharp experience.

Free, with paid upgrades

This core experience of the app is completely free and there are no ads. If you want to you can upgrade your experience by adding live weather to your islands with an in-app purchase. If you really want to support me you can also by me a beer or another beverage in the support tab of the app 🙂

Latest updates

What's new in version 0.85

Location info:
Material Islands only asks for the device’s location if the setting “Use live weather” has been enabled, in order to provide weather functionality to the user as an addition to the live wallpaper backgrounds. Only longitude and latitude is being sent to MET Norway via an API, no other device specific data. If location data is disabled, the app will work just fine except for the weather feature.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

User's Reivew

2 ★I liked this app in the first place but i am upset vecause tge live weather feature always looks out for location and so doesnt work at all. All the other location apps find my location finely except for this one. If this is solved, then i will lookout to increase the rating
5 ★Very nice in all its simplicity! The style of art is personal of course but it's straight up my alley. Maybe allow users to change place manually instead of only using location for weather?
5 ★so far so good. they're very nice and I like the ability to move the up or down the screen to keep it aesthetic with my widgets.
5 ★Beautiful art, easy to customise, no battery issues. Would be perfect with one addition: Please let me set the day/night times automatically, or in <60min intervals :) Thanks for making this!
2 ★There are so limited number of wallpapers. Please increase the number .
5 ★This is such a beautiful and well done app for wallpapers, this helps stands out my phone. Though, i recommend adding small little animations such as cars driving across the city or building lights turning off and on, if you were to pick the "Isle of Urbanity". Overall, this is a wonderful art gallery of live wallpapers, i cannot wait to see what is more to come for this app. Thank you for catching my eye and customing my device to a unique look.
5 ★Amazing! I wish they'd add more designs though. Either way, I love the rotation and day/night cycle. Been using it for 3 weeks and I love it
4 ★It's great. Wallpapers are very pleasant and fit well with many aesthetics. The one problem is that the weather doesn't work properly.
4 ★Hi! Firstly, loving this app, and it's really not pushy to get the live weather (which I will purchase when I ask this question)! Just one thing: I can't work out how to set it as my lock screen! As this app is so good, I must just be missing and it would be most appreciated if someone could notify me where the setting is! Thanks guys
4 ★Love it. So simple yet effective. Have been using it for years and just found it again a month ago. New isles added would be fantastic. I have one issue so far, I bought the live weather but it's not accurate. It tells me that there is no weather detected and default is sun, but it's snowing out heavily in my location. Please fix this issue. Will edit to 5 stars when it's fixed.
4 ★Just what I wanted. Please add more and more wallpapers, many are just too boring and washed out for day mode. Good work 👍.
4 ★Edit: As of today the weather is showing correctly once again for my area. Parallax doesn't work but I decided to purchase live weather anyway. Unfortunately, it worked only once for about a day. I'm so disappointed. At least the randomization & time of day image changes work. This app has the potential to be great but judging from other comments, the developer doesn't seem too interested in fixing or even acknowledging these issues because they've been ongoing for quite awhile! Such a shame.
