Wallspace is designed to be simple. But if you're new to the app, a quick walkthrough can help. Here's everything you need to know to get the most out of Wallspace.
Download and Install
Visit wallspace.app and download the app. Open the DMG, drag Wallspace to Applications, and launch it. No account, no setup wizard. The app opens to the main library.
Browsing the Library
The main window shows wallpapers in a grid. Categories (Nature, Space, Abstract, etc.) help you narrow down. Scroll through, and click any wallpaper to preview it. The preview shows the motion so you know what you're getting.
Applying a Wallpaper
When you find one you like, click Apply. The wallpaper is set immediately for your primary display. No dialogs, no extra steps. If you have multiple displays, you can select which one to apply to.
Using Custom MP4s
Want to use your own video? Drag an MP4 file into Wallspace or use the import option. It appears in your library. Preview it, then apply — same flow as curated wallpapers. Wallspace handles format and scaling. No conversion needed.
Multi-Display Setup
With multiple monitors, each can have its own wallpaper. Select a display in the app, pick a wallpaper, and apply. Repeat for each display. You can mix curated and custom wallpapers across displays.
Pro Features
Pro ($6.99 one-time) unlocks 4K wallpapers, lock screen support, and unlimited downloads. If you use those features, upgrade in the app or on the pricing page.
