Wallpaper HD 2.0.2.0
Wallpaper HD is one such utility and it makes it possible for all users to search for a wide variety of pictures, then use them to give their handsets a completely new look.
Plain looks with a good organization of the content
The home screen of this utility greets you with some large tiles that represent the main areas of the application and, also, with some ads that keep on flipping at the bottom of the screen. If the first impression is not that great, getting inside the app to view the images it can fetch is a different story.
The high quality wallpapers are well organized under several relevant categories, to make them easier to browse. Double tapping the images will activate the full screen zoom mode and the good news is that when the picture cover the whole screen, you can enjoy a couple of moments without the annoying adverts.
Quickly find and save the images you like
The built-in search feature of Wallpaper HD works well and will bring at your fingertips all the beautiful photos you could wish for. Saving the images takes just a single tap on the button displayed in the lower part of the screen.
Once the pictures are saved, you can turn them into backgrounds for the lock screen, share or use them otherwise, as you see fit. It is important to note that prior to starting the searches, it is recommended to visit the "Settings" area and specify the wallpaper resolution you want to get, as this app can look for images with a resolution of 480x800, 768x1280 or 1400x1280 pixels.

Bottom Line
Design / UI5
The appearance of this tool is average, without possibilities of bringing any improvements to it. The pesky ads appear in every area and only maximizing the discovered wallpapers will put them out of sight. |
Function8
Wallpaper HD delivers only high-quality content and the way in which the information is structured inside the app makes it pretty easy to use. An advantage of the utility is the possibility to pick the desired image resolution for the searches, so as to avoid losing time by browsing pictures that are not suitable for the device's screen. |
Security7
As this application should only seek for images and save them, it is rather odd that it has to have access to user and phone identities and the phone dialer. |
Battery7
The tool spends a reasonable amount of power, so it will not deplete the battery after just a couple of hours of continuous operation. |
Price8
The quality of the wallpapers and the fact that they are fetched freely gives a lot of value to this app. Nonetheless, enduring the advertisements is the price users have to pay in order to enjoy these features. |
Compatibility8
It doesn't take a state of the art handset to have Wallpaper HD up and running without glitches, as it is suitable for any device powered by Windows Phone 7.5 and above. |
