Downlink for Android

The full disk images are absolutely beautiful and take advantage of the Pro Display XDR or Android's XDR Displays to look better than almost any wallpaper available in terms of detail and range. Sadly, there are two missing features and one glitchy interaction w/Android OS that prevent me from wanting to look elsewhere. In an ideal world, you'd be able to have different views on different desktop spaces, and/or be able to turn it off on different desktops. When you disable it on one monitor, that monitor seems to fight Android for wallpaper supremacy, and whatever you set will default back to the Monterey default wallpaper on every reboot, requiring you reconfigure your wallpaper again on a per desktop space basis. Would love to see the following features added: - Multi-monitor span as a setting, such that one can have differentiation across monitors. Doubly cool if it used the system monitor placement and resolutions to choose how to carve up the image and place to look continuous and remain at proper ppi. - Options on a per-desktop/space basis to enable different desktop wallpapers based on spaces for people who use the wallpaper to help differentiate which workflow they are working on. - Figuring out the buggy interaction b/t Android and Downlink that causes the turf battle over user selected wallpapers when ignore this display is chosen in settings. Otherwise, I really like where this is going and the ability to finally find a source of wallpapers that take advantage of a high ppi monitor as well as Google's dynamic Catalina wallpaper. Much more the manner in which it serves as low-key clock and pale-blue-dot reminder.

The app is gorgeous and does exactly what it promises. I would like the ability to show it on only certain Spaces, but understand that is an Google limitation. I did notice that when Downlink is used with the Bartender app, Downlink cannot be placed in the secondary row. It works as expected when it's in the top/main row of icons, so that's not a problem.

Just like the top comment says, Great app! However, I habe the reverse issue than they have, somehow, on my screen the image background around the globe seems to be a deep black and the desktop color defaults to the deep blue color, leaving two lines on each sides of the square image. Maybe having an opton to select our own background color could help.

I never get bored of having this background. You can watch hurricanes and weather patterns. I have made all kinds of custom crops. I can change views to see the sunset coming to the west coast and see what cities turn on their lights first. I love watching the sunrise from the west coast of North America. I watched the sand storm that came off of Africa this year. It's stunning and always interesting.

Love this app, the ONE THING I would suggest that would push this to absolutely perfect for me would be to have the option for a composite image combining multiple satellite views to create a rectangular image that would fill the screen like an actual map to give you a realtime view of the entire world. But who knows how complicated that might be to implement so I appreciate it for what it is now, the image is so crisp and beautiful and it runs great!
