Turn Any Video Into a Live Wallpaper

Wallspace lets you use any MP4 file as a live wallpaper with zero conversion. Just pick, apply, and enjoy.

Got a cool video you want as your desktop background? Wallspace makes it dead simple. No encoding, no file conversion, no fiddling with settings.

Three steps

  • Pick -- Open Wallspace and choose any MP4 file from your Mac
  • Apply -- Click to set it as your wallpaper
  • Enjoy -- It auto-applies to your lock screen too (Pro feature)

Tips for the best experience

While any MP4 will work, here are a few tips to get the best looking results:

  • Use videos that loop seamlessly for a smoother experience
  • 4K resolution looks best on Retina displays
  • Shorter clips (10-30 seconds) keep file sizes reasonable
  • Avoid videos with lots of UI or text -- abstract and nature scenes work great

That's it. No complicated setup, no account needed. Just your video on your desktop.
