Is PhotoPhase safe?

Live wallpaper that takes a selection of images and tiles a few of them, applying transitions and effects. There is an OpenGL issue with one type of chipset in v1.0.6 that can cause the system to crash and the only fix is to uninstall the app. Note that Android has a 'safe mode' that disables all user-installed apps at start time, allowing you to uninstall troublesome apps.
