As with all applications, the more frequently CrosPaper runs, the more power it takes. For best battery life, set the wallpaper slideshow to longer intervals (30 minutes and up) or turn off Live Wallpaper.

While Service Worker technology prevents unnecessary demands on your system, it can be unreliable when trying to design an app. To make sure the system runs properly, we have to know when he might run into issues “waking up.” One such occasion is when your computer auto-locks.

If your auto-lock is off, CrosPaper reads nothing else regarding your activity. It doesn’t even track your idle/active state unless Live Wallpapers is on.

The deprecation of the Google Web Store payments model has narrowed the options for monetizing extensions. The current Stripe-based subscriptions model allows us to add new features, maintain our current feature set and sources, as well as avoid any nasty ads in the app.

You likely have the "storage saver" option set to on for your Google Photos library. This compresses the photo and may result in a lower quality for some pictures. For best results on Google Photos wallpapers, upload images in their "original quality."

• This happens most often when a user presses the "Skip to next wallpaper" button too often. CrosPaper is designed to change your wallpaper, not run a speedy search of images.

• If the app freezes during a wallpaper slideshow, try resetting and saving your options again in the Options page. To reach the options page when the Pop-up is frozen, right-click the CrosPaper icon and select "options" from the dropdown menu.

• CrosPaper might also have run into an issue with another extension or application. In that event, a restart should clear everything up.

• Please report any and all bugs on the issue page, or our subreddit.

• You are! If your wallpapers are showing up on Google Drive in a folder called "Chrome Syncable FileSystem" or "Chromebook Wallpaper," it means you're syncing them.

• To rectify this, go to chrome://settings/syncSetup/advanced and uncheck the "Theme & Wallpaper" option.

To protect your privacy, CrosPaper Pro currently does not support accessing sharing features or shared albums on Google Photos.

If you’d like to share a CrosPaper LWP album, share the album on photos.google.com.

If you’ve had a CrosPaper LWP album shared with you, navigate to photos.google.com, click the sharing tab, and select the album you’d like to set. In the album, select the kebab menu and click the “Show in Albums” option.

As stated above, CrosPaper Pro currently does not support accessing sharing features or shared albums on Google Photos.

To save shared albums to your own storage, you must first save the individual photos into your own storage. After that, add the photos to a custom “CrosPaper LWP” album.

For more information, see the official Google Photos Support forums (https://support.google.com/photos/thread/574051/how-do-you-make-a-copy-of-someone-else-s-album-that-will-stay-after-they-delete-the-shared-album?hl=en)

If enough users requested the feature, we would consider it.

Live Wallpapers are stored into the cache before being applied. If you’ve deleted your entire browser’s/CrosPaper’s cache, the wallpaper will be deleted as well.

You must create a new Live Wallpaper or—if you’re a CrosPaper Pro member—reset it from Google Photos.
