More on custom emoji wallpapers
That's all it takes to make your own custom emoji wallpaper on Android 14. Once you've set it, you can interact with the emojis on your home screen by tapping them. Keep an eye on the figures when you charge your device because the emojis also react to that action. They flip into lightning bolt emojis and back to their normal selves, which is fun to watch.
Play around with the different emoji combinations, sizes, patterns, and colors. Your home screen icons adapt to the color scheme automatically, making everything look neat and in sync. If you love your creation, you can even share it from the Emoji Workshop tab under your phone's Wallpaper & style settings. The wallpaper is shared as an image, so your friends and family who don't have Android 14 yet can also enjoy it.
Not on Android 14 yet? Or worse, is your current device never going to get the new Android update? Now might be the right time to upgrade your device.
