I really love this app it's top-notch, and I like the fact that I can play with the wallpaper (zoom in or zoom out) you can also see the galaxies, and it shows you the names of the cosmic bodies (except for planets) but the only thing with is that if you turn on location it's showing me a fake location the developer should fix that, the earth and the moon are the only visible planets and the list of the good and bad things goes on and on but overall it's quite an awesome wallpaper app.I love this ap

It is the most beautiful live earth wallpaper, but the sunlight is not accurate to real life. It would be better to set timezone of your location manually.

Good good good only problem is the animation it only zooms in on random spots on the earth I would like to have animation show the sun coming up over the horizon then fade transition into another animation like the moon partially coming between the camera and earth. A more diverse animation would be extraordinary. Over all a brilliant app

Beautiful visuals and plenty of configuration options, but very uncomfortable to use. I actually didn't manage to configure it to my liking, so I am going to install a competitor. Configuration tooltips are confusing. After every change, it takes forever to load, making it impossible to quickly try different values. Also for example gyro X axis uses number input, but Y and Z axis use slider. Value is -120,0 off,120, but you can't really set 0 by hand, because it doesn't show the value.

I purchased the app and installed it on a new Samsung fold 7. It loaded to 59% and kept freezing and locking up. I tried rebooting the phone, but this did not help the problem. I then uninstalled and reinstalled it, and it would load to 59% and freeze. I went ahead and did a purchase thinking that perhaps the ad free version would install. The paid for version also froze after all less than 60% installation period as far as I can tell this app is not ready for the new Android system.

Disappointing .no auto Earth spin? Maybe KISS?. I used to have another Earth app pro 3.1 on my old Sam Note, but it's not available on play anymore, so I tried this one. As say 'live' so didn't mess about and upgraded to premium but then tried for an hour to get earth to spin automatically despite latest Android and phone I couldn't.read reviews tried fingers/refresh but still no auto spin. App just keeps looping me to buy it on again. Wasted enough time and went and now gone with another. Dev.

Some words from the developer:
I made this live wallpaper application extremely customizable in the hope that users (who will be using this live wallpaper) can create the Earth Live Wallpaper to their own perspectives of how they want it to look like! Enjoy my creation! ^.^
FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions):
[Q1] Why does the application need the Microphone permission?
[A1] So the Live Wallpaper can internally use the audio/music playback data for visualisation purposes (visualizer). The microphone is not used, however.
[Q2] What will change when I purchase a premium license?
[A2] All settings with a '[PRO]' tag will be unlocked. You are already allowed to try '[PRO]' settings, but these will not be applied when using the Live Wallpaper on the lock/homescreen
[Q3] Does the Live Wallpaper drain a lot of battery?
[A3] It depends the usage. The more the Live Wallpaper is on the foreground, the more battery it will consume. In most cases, Live Wallpapers use more battery than static wallpapers.
Permissions (all are optional):
Internet/Network -> Downloading live clouds + textures + live lightning data
Location -> Show location on the Earth in the Live Wallpaper
Microphone -> Live Wallpaper audio visualizer
Storage -> Loading/Writing/Saving custom textures/models/shaders from/to external storage and texture/geometry swap options
