Smoke is soft gradient stacked on soft gradient — brutal on compression — so every file keeps source resolution at 1080×1920+ and 3000×1687+. Dark backgrounds turn the wisps luminous and keep OLED panels efficient. From a single thin trail to full billowing clouds, pick your density. Long-press or right-click to save — free for personal use.

Common questions

Do black wallpapers actually save battery?

On OLED and AMOLED screens, yes. A true-black (#000000) pixel is switched off rather than dimmed, so it draws no power — and with an always-on display that runs all day the difference is measurable. On an LCD screen it saves nothing, because the backlight stays on either way. Not sure which you have? Our OLED test tool fills the screen with pure black: on an OLED it goes completely dark, on an LCD you can still see the backlight glowing grey.

How do I set one as my wallpaper?

Long-press on mobile or right-click on desktop to save the image, then set it from your gallery or system wallpaper settings.
