Still Looking For iPhone 5 Wallpaper? Look No Further Than Bambu
September 27, 2012
Bambu, the app that promises "no more boring wallpaper," has received an impressive update. Version 1.4 includes iOS 6 and iPhone 5 support, and more.
Originally released in October by Plastic, the free app offers hundreds of original images with new ones added each week. Most notably, Bambu makes it easy to send favorite backgrounds to family and friends through Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter, and email.
Bambu places each wallpaper on the main screen using small thumbnails. Scroll up and additional content appears. Scroll down and you’re able to search for designs by category. These include: love, cute, funny, celebrations, cheeky, words, TV and film, and other.
Once you find a wallpaper you’d like to download, click on it and choose “select this bambu.”
The app also offers special wallpapers that are part of a set and designed by an artist specifically for Bambu. These themes, which are scattered throughout, require an in-app purchase that ranges in price from $0.99 to $1.99.
There are also time-limited themes for special occasions.
Bambu 1.4 includes:
Like Pimp Your Screen, which is equally impressive, I recommend Bambu for anyone that likes to change the wallpaper on their iPhone. My only question for Plastic: When is the iPad app coming?
