Like it has happened always, mostly every Android device out there ships with some beautiful default wallpapers which the user can use to set as the background. If yours is a Google Edition phone or tablet such as Nexus 4, Galaxy S4 or HTC One, then those wallpapers are bundled by Google, and apart from that, every device has wallpaper bundled by their manufacturers. While there’s no problem with the default wallpapers, some prefer a solid color wallpaper which is less distracting than those landscapes or digital art forms.

Android, by default does not come with any option to set solid color as the phone or tablet’s background and if you want to do the same thing on your device, then here’s an app for that.

Enter Colors, an application for Android which you can apply any solid color as the background of your device.

The app offers many different color choices, and shows the name, color code and the user who submitted them. To add the color wallpaper, you just need to tap on the color which you like and then you’ll get a preview of it on the screen. Once you like the preview, you can then set it as your wallpaper.

You’re surely going to find a color that suits you, else, there’s a color picker using which you can set just about any color as your background. To open color picker, tap on Pick and then select a color of your choice. However, there’s no option to enter a hex code (which looks like #FBB829) directly which would have made things better.
