When I have a lock screen that is separate from the gif, it reverts back after a day or two. I wouldn't mind so much if I just had to reapply the gif, but the lock screen reversion is annoying. This didn't happen when I was first using the app, but after a month or two of usage this has been happening. I'm on a Motorola one 5g uw

Great app, works efficiently as far as I've seen. Allows for proper positioning of the GIFs, which is a huge plus. Not noticing any extra power drain, which is also much needed. Only issue is that the wallpaper will unequip every week or two, and I have to reapply it. I know it is not my phone, because I never had that issue with any other GIF wallpaper software. Overall, it's an incredible app.

Works quickly and as intended, but a couple things. the window represented in the editing screen doesn't represent my full phone screen, it's a little shorter off the bottom. Also, so far, I had my wallpaper revert to the stock live wallpaper after a couple days, I just used the app to set it back again. I'll update this review in a week to let you know if it stays or reverts again. I have an updated Galaxy note 8. I checked the faq and the advice you have for wallpaper reversions doesn't seem to help. I don't have an app that automatically takes care of wiping background data, and if I do, I can't find it. I do have a built in device maintenance app, but it doesn't clear out the wallpaper when I manually use it to clear background data. Hopefully this kinda just improves for me. EDIT: after reapplying the same wallpaper, it did not revert again, so I'm upgrading this to 5 stars. The impact on battery life it relitively negligible for my phone. I may only use an extra 5 to 10% at most over the day since installed. Well worth having an animated wallpaper.
