WebsiteLiveWallpaper v0.71
Requirements: android
Overview: Watch your favourite website picture or webcam as home screen background instead of a static picture.
As an avid windsurfer I like to watch my home beach even on workdays and see what's going on. Maybe I have to take a vacation if the conditions are great. This live background enables me to always keep an eye on the spot.
Of course you can also put the refreshing weather/rain radar image, other sports webcams like snowboarding/skiing or even stock market informations on your home screen. You just need to find out the correct web address to link to the refreshing image.
How to activate:
1. long touch home screen background or press MENU -> Wallpapers
2. Live Wallpapers
3. select Website Live Wallpaer
4. set as background
To select your favourite website your have to enter the web address in settings or follow these four easier steps:
1. open Webbrowser
2. find nice webcam (google?)
3. long touch on image -> View image
4. long touch on URL above -> Share -> WebsiteLiveWallpaper
You can also specify the refresh time. Please note that refreshing often may consume more battery power! Normally this wallpaper should be quite cpu friendly as it is only updated every x seconds and only when visible unlike other wallpapers with smooth animation.
Planned future features:
- some nice default webcams for easy selection (send me some links!)
- crop/center settings
- background color selection
- time based selection of different webcams (so you do not have to watch a night view!).
- later if possible support for every website/html not just refreshing pictures! ... a lot of nice webcams try to avoid being direcly linked ...
