WHAT’S THE MEANING?

For iOS, live wallpapers are a type of animated wallpaper that appears as static images at first. The animations activate through a tap or a long press. Live wallpapers are only supported by late iPhone models starting from the iPhone 6. This is because live wallpapers need the 3D touchscreen feature to activate. Live wallpapers are also compatible with newer iPad models. Live wallpapers are often confused with dynamic wallpapers. While also animated, dynamic wallpapers act more like short video clips set to play on a loop.

DID YOU KNOW?

Did you know that it was Microsoft Windows that first coined the term “wallpaper”? It pertains to a decorative background for the interface of the operating system. The term's usage adapts from the word’s original definition. In interior design, the wallpaper is for decorating actual walls. Later on, Windows changes the name to “desktop background” in newer releases. One of the most recognizable and most viewed photos of all time is a wallpaper. The wallpaper is Bliss by former National Geographic photographer, Charles O’Rear. The unedited image depicts a view of a green hill and a blue sky dotted with clouds. The photo's location is in Los Carneros American Viticultural Area in Sonoma County. Bliss was the default wallpaper in Windows XP. Its popularity can be partly attributed to the fact that Windows XP was the reigning OS for PCs. Back at the time when personal computers were becoming more popular.
