Some apps (mostly androidish) come with tons of images preinstalled. While most of them are completely useless in app-context you sometimes can re-use them as ambience backgrounds. If you find a nice "onboard source" please note it here. :)

Let's start: In case you've installed the android browser dolphin you can use it's designs as quite good ambience-backgrounds. I've found a lot of them here:

Ok, it's a cheap trick and they won't fit always perfectly but... hehe, they are already there... :-]

I've found that album arts look pretty neat :) Now using Abducted By Sharks' “Generic Dystopian City”, it looks fantastic.

Cool idea. :) Will change header to make this a more general topic.

Can you guys share some screen shots and original pictures? I do not use Android on Jolla, but I am interested in nice ambiances :)

@zlatko DONE. btw: It's not limited to droid-apps but i haven't found unused images in sailfish-apps yet. Anyone? :-)
