5 Easy Wallpaper Ideas for Your Phone

Give your phone that added dash of personalization by putting up a wallpaper!

You can always search and download an image or use your own photos, but what if you want something even more custom-made? You can make a great phone wallpaper quickly using mobile apps like Instasize!

Here’s a quick how-to to create your own wallpaper on Instasize:

• Step #1: Tap the ‘+’ icon and choose ‘Photo’. From your Camera Roll, pick a base photo you want to work with or include in your phone wallpaper.

• Step #2: From Instasize’s photo editor, tap the Crop icon and choose the resolution that best matches your phone’s dimensions. You now have a canvas to work with! Cropping first gives you an idea of where to fit elements you may want to add later.

• Step #3: Enhance your base photo. Instasize has a large collection of filters, as well as powerful and photo editing features ranging from adjustment settings to beauty tools.

• Step #4: Add a boarder. Tap the Border icon and use the slider to adjust the margin’s thickness. Pick a pattern from InstaSize’s large pattern library or simply pick a solid color.

• Step #5: Add text. Want words to go with your image? Tap the app’s Text Styles option and choose from professionally designed pre-made layouts. Just choose a layout, tap the text box, type in your own text and see it in a typography design in an instant!
