About WallpaperExport
The sole purpose of this app is to back up the current wallpaper. Up to Android 13 you need to grant the READEXTERNALSTORAGE permission to access the wallpaper. On Android 13 “Tiramisu” it is necessary to grant the MANAGEEXTERNALSTORAGE permission. This permission also allows read and write access to all user files on the device. The app does not use the permission to access any files though. On Android 14 and higher it is necessary to grant the MANAGEEXTERNALSTORAGE permission and the READMEDIAIMAGES permission.
Privacy and F-Droid
F-Droid builds WallpaperExport from its published source code and flags anti-features such as ads, tracking or reliance on non-free services.
No anti-features flagged on the latest F-Droid build.
