Could you build this?
Partial While basic media players and custom themes are standard, extending them into system-level Android home/lock screen modifications and touch/motion compositing requires deep native Android OS framework internals.
What it would actually take: This app requires native Android development in Kotlin/C++ utilizing ExoPlayer/Media3 for audio-video playback, coupled with low-level Android APIs like WallpaperService, AccessibilityService, WindowManager overlays, and custom OpenGL/RenderScript shaders for touch and motion effects. The difficult part is managing battery consumption and memory footprint while hooking into non-standard vendor Android launchers and lockscreen lifecycles across diverse OEM devices.
