FAQ

How many FPS should I get to set my shader as live wallpaper?

Some devices limit GPU usage to consume less power when not plugged in. Always check the performance with the soft keyboard hidden and the power cord off. A shader should make at least around 30 fps to not slow down the UI.

How much battery will a live wallpaper take?

A live wallpaper should only consume battery when you see it. So it generally depends on how often and how long you look at it. With normal use, you shouldn't note a difference in battery consumption.

What if errors are not highlighted?

Unfortunately error information is disabled on some devices (e.g. Huawei Ideos X3, Asus Transformer). Error highlighting/reporting is not possible on these devices.

time uniform loses accuracy / framerate drops over time

Most probably it's because time is just a float of medium precision (unfortunately the default for fragment shaders). Either try to specify high precision (what may not be available on your hardware):

#ifdef GL_FRAGMENT_PRECISION_HIGH
precision highp float;
#else
precision mediump float;
#endif

Or use the second/subsecond/ftime uniforms instead. See issue #10 for details.
