A digital well-being live wallpaper that produces generative art.

This live wallpaper generates a circle on touch, while a square moves from the previous touch point toward the circle, leaving a trail behind. After every 3600 squares, the screen resets, maintaining a total count of squares drawn on the display.

I’ve associated 3600 squares with 3600 seconds—though the comparison isn't literal, since a finger swipe takes less than a second. Instead, it offers a visual metaphor for time perception and a heat map of screen interaction. The display format is as follows:

1d:13h:3600
squares

Feel free to experiment with colors and designs, but remember the goal: less screen time and more face-to-face interaction.
