Desktop wallpapers are not only included on phones and tablets. There are more devices that integrate them. An example is chromecast, the media player that connects to the TV to receive images and videos from different sources, such as the Chrome browser or mobile terminals.
To get them you should not search from image to image as usual, something that I could see in those that are integrated into new phones Motorola Moto X or Sony Xperia Z3, but with just downloading an application you will have them all available to be used on the devices with the Android operating system that is necessary. The development is called Chromecast Wallpapers.
The collection of wallpapers that is included, of no less than 680 images, is of great quality since the resolution of all of them reaches up to 1.920 x 1080, so they are in high definition. By the way, this makes them have a rather large size, so it is advisable to be connected to a WiFi network to download each of the possible ones that, by the way, can also be used in the chromecast on duty if necessary at any time.
What Chromecast Wallpapers and Image Quality Offers
La app Chromecast Wallpapers gathers the backgrounds you see in the device's sleep mode: photos of landscapes, cities and nature with careful treatment. In practice, the figure is around 680 images in Full HD (1920 x 1080), although in some editions it may be close to about 700. In addition, there are versions that add a bonus package of nearly 500 images through low-cost in-app purchasing, perfect if you want to expand your gallery even further.
For those looking for variety, the community has also created external compilations with a wide variety of themes. You can even find compact collections of 41 images to resolution 1280 x 720 focused on landscapes and macros, ideal for saving space on your mobile or for HD screens.
How to use: interface, download and setting the background

By tapping on a thumbnail, you access a full-screen preview and have access to three actions: a central button for place it as a background, another to the left for share and another to the right for Download the image in the device's memory. It is an application fast and fluid, designed to let you change your wallpaper in seconds.
