What size should a Mac wallpaper be?

The sharpest wallpaper matches the screen's native resolution. Apple lists these for current Macs: MacBook Air 13-inch 2560 × 1664, MacBook Air 15-inch 2880 × 1864, MacBook Pro 14-inch 3024 × 1964, MacBook Pro 16-inch 3456 × 2234, MacBook Neo 2408 × 1506, iMac 24-inch 4480 × 2520, Studio Display 5120 × 2880, Studio Display XDR 5120 × 2880 pixels. This tool crops your image to that exact size, so macOS doesn't have to stretch or shrink it.
