KLWP wallpaper elements not responding intermittently

I’m getting an odd recurring, occasional issue with KLWP - the elements on my wallpaper stop responding (as though it’s become a static background image). Clock stops updating; Color changes on shapes stops changing; Touch action on “buttons” stops responding.

I’m running Nova 8.0.18, and KLWP 3.77b435216 on a Pixel 7a with Android 15.

Can you check and make sure to remove KLWP from your device’s battery optimization or similar 3rd party apps? Also, go to KLWP’s app settings >> Advanced options >> Turn on “Use direct touch”.

KLWP is set to allow background use (under Battery settings).

I turned on Direct Touch, but it immediately stopped responding to touches. Turning that back off has re-enabled touches.

I’ve turned off Adaptive Battery (Android settings) and I’ve NOT been editing the wallpaper multiple times per day (which I was doing). Ive not had the original issue (“frozen” wallpaper) in the last couple of days.
