Quiet Glyphs: Betta Wallpaper

Keep a quiet betta on your home screen.

Every fin is built from tiny text characters. Up close it's ASCII; from across the room it's a betta slowly trailing its long fins. It steers itself in real time, so the scene keeps changing instead of replaying a fixed clip.

◆ It notices you
• Tap an empty spot on your home screen and it turns, swims over and flares its fins.
• Double-tap quickly and it darts away.
• Every time you wake your screen, it spreads its fins to greet you.

◆ 12 colors
Red, Sunset, Blue + yellow, Candy, Violet, Black Copper, Platinum, Golden, Orchid, Marble, Mustard and Steel Blue. Keep one, or leave it on Random and meet a different fish.

◆ Three aquascapes
Driftwood with anubias, driftwood with Java fern, or a mix of both. Or leave the tank bare. When the fish swims past, the leaves sway in its wake and slowly settle.

◆ Beautiful in light and dark
There's a light and a dark version. Follow your system theme or pick one.

◆ Make it yours
Faster or slower, touch on or off — with a live preview in settings.

◆ Easy on battery
Stops completely when the wallpaper isn't visible, and drops its frame rate in power-saving mode.

◆ No permissions at all
No internet access, no data access, no ads. It knows nothing about what happens on your phone.

Tip for Samsung phones: in Light mode the lock-screen clock may stay white. Long-press the lock screen to change the clock color to a dark one.
