Frames wiki

Welcome to the Frames wiki! 👋

Frames is a dashboard for wallpaper apps. It gives you a complete Android app, ready to fill with your own wallpapers, name, icon and colors.

You don’t need to be an Android developer to use it. Most of the setup is editing a few files and copying your images in. This wiki walks you through every step.

How to use this wiki

The sidebar groups every page by what it’s for:

1. Start here: get the project running, learn how to edit XML files, and set your package name. Do this first.
2. Basic setup: your app’s name, icon, colors and main settings. Go through these pages in order.
3. Wallpapers: add your content.
4. Optional: extras like notifications and donations.
5. Maintenance: keep your app up to date.

Ready? Start with Get Started.
