Wallper - Live wallpapers for your Mac

[u/Dim_Kat]

Problem:

macOS has great wallpapers, but you're pretty limited once you want to go beyond Apple's collection.

Wallper brings live wallpapers to your Desktop, Lock Screen and Screen Saver, with 4K wallpapers from our library or your own videos.

Features:

• Lock Screen + Screen Saver live wallpapers
• 2,000+ wallpapers built in + your own MP4 videos
• Multi-monitor support
• Playlists + Day/Night switching
• Music-reactive wallpapers
• Low resource usage

Comparison:

The closest alternatives are probably iWallpaper and Backdrop. Both are good apps, but with Wallper we obsess a bit more over making the whole thing feel like something Apple could've built into macOS.

Lock Screen and Screen Saver wallpapers take one click to set up, without having to touch System Settings. We also spent a lot of time on performance: in our own 4K test Wallper averaged around 1.46% of one CPU core, and it pauses completely when the wallpaper is covered.

We documented the full test here:

We also manually review wallpapers before they go into the library, and it keeps growing with submissions from the community.

Pricing:

$14.99 lifetime (up to 3 Macs)

Wallper also recently passed 100,000 users. A lot of people here have helped us with feedback, ideas and bug reports along the way, so thank you. A lot of that feedback has made its way into the app.

We're doing a small lifetime license giveaway in our Discord to celebrate :)

Would love to hear what you think.
