Voomie – A live wallpaper app that allows setting the most memorial videos at the device’s load or home screen

Project idea

Create a live wallpaper app where users can choose videos from their photo library and set them on screens. Voomies can be set to run from 3 to 60 seconds.

Target audience

Set up for the US market, but there’s a translation for Hindi users.

Project challenges
  • Coming up with the final concepts of the app
  • Minimizing phone battery usage
  • Allow sharing voomies via email, messengers, and social network accounts

Main features of the project

After the planning stage, our developers started working on the project

Making voomies

To create a voomie, users select one or a few videos from their phone library or Google Photos. Or tap on the camera icon to shoot a new one. Voomies play between 3 and 15 seconds, and users can pick the finest moments with the slider.

Wallpaper editing

Voomie comes with an in-built video editor. It helps to adjust the playback speed (slow, original, or fast), add blur effect, edit the timeline or sequence. If viewers don’t want to include the sound, they can hit the ‘Mute’ button.

Turn wallpapers on/off

The app allows setting multiple voomies as wallpaper and turning them at any moment. Users need to toggle the Voomie on/off switch at the bottom of the app welcome page and choose the screens – home and load or the home screen only.

We’re very happy with Androswift. They seem to work in the way that we do, and we have a close collaboration with them. Every day we talk to the developers and outline what needs to be done.

I was at first worried about doing business with developers in another country as I am based in the UK, but I had spoken to a guy from Androswift called Kalpesh, who assured me that using Androswift for all my development work would not be a risk at all and they have proven me right.
