YouTuber Marques Brownlee shutting down phone wallpaper app

Popular YouTuber Marques Brownlee, known as MKBHD, is shutting down his phone wallpaper app, Panels, due to challenges turning it into his envisioned ecosystem. Despite topping download charts and garnering two million wallpaper downloads, the app wasn't sustainable, with a niche audience contributing to its closure at the end of December. Users will retain purchased wallpapers and receive refunds for active subscriptions, as the app's code will become open source for potential future projects.
