Dynamic theme brings Bing wallpapers on your desktop

Feb 24, 2017 08:53 GMT  ·  By

Bing is a pretty good resource of high-quality wallpapers, especially because Microsoft changes them on a daily basis. Both Windows 10 and Windows 10 Mobile integrate features to set the Bing homepage photo as lock screen background, but when it comes to the desktop, options are a bit more limited.

Fortunately, there’s a Windows 10 app called Dynamic theme which makes everything a lot easier, as it can automatically get the Bing daily wallpaper and set it as your desktop background all automatically. And what’s more, it uses an interface that looks super-familiar for Windows 10 users.

Dynamic theme comes with lots of features, and it can not only change your desktop background with the daily Bing wallpaper but also automatically save photos in a user-defined folder. There are also options to use a Bing or Windows Spotlight picture as background and on the lock screen, use personal pictures with the same purpose, and preview Bing pics before setting them as wallpaper.

Alerts and familiar interface

The app can also issue alerts whenever a new daily Bing or Windows Spotlight image is published, and this is super-handy for Windows users because they get to see a toast notification that is then saved in the Action Center.

And this isn’t all. You can synchronize your settings between different devices using a Microsoft account, so those using more than just a Windows 10 device can have their wallpapers changed everywhere.

The interface of the app mimics the Settings app integrated into Windows 10 and this makes it super easy to use, mostly because options are neatly organized in categories listed in the left frame, just like is the case with Microsoft’s configuration panel.

Dynamic theme is completely free and there are no ads, but on the other hand, it supports Windows 10 features such as the live tile, which can be automatically refreshed using the Windows Spotlight image.

As our readers pointed out, there’s also another app for those who want to use the Bing daily wallpaper as their Windows 10 background and it’s called Daily Bing Wallpaper. In this case, however, you get fewer features, but the app serves its purpose correctly anyway.

Thanks for the tip, Jer!
