PRO
Lock Screen live wallpaper on the latest macOS
Mirror high-quality motion to the Lock Screen where the OS allows it, without extra installers. Setup stays reversible: turn it off anytime from Settings, and your previous look returns.
Efficiency
Battery & CPU reality check
- Shown: A crisp 4K loop on a single display (larger source files cache locally after download).
- Compare: Streaming a 1080p browser video is usually several times heavier than MacWall sitting idle on wallpaper duty.
- On the go: Toggle “Pause on battery” so motion stops while unplugged and resumes when power returns.
- Idle-friendly: Pauses when another app goes full screen or when the display sleeps. Uses system decoders so fans stay quiet during normal work.
