- Very battery-friendly; users report minimal to no battery drain
- Highly positive sentiment from users (loved by many; app of all time)

### Cons

- Battery drain and overheating on some devices
- Device-specific issues accessing settings or changing shaders (notably on OnePlus 10 Pro) and problems with the premium version
- App can crash or fail to open with errors like 'Something goes wrong'
- Limited customization: only one wallpaper or few options; requests for more HD and features like auto-change or lock-screen-only option
