Can I use these wallpapers as live wallpapers on Mac?

macOS doesn’t support live wallpapers by default. To use video wallpapers, you need an app like Wallper.

macOS ships with a small set of dynamic and Aerial screensavers, but it does not allow arbitrary video files to be used as desktop wallpapers out of the box. To turn an .mp4 video into a live wallpaper you need a third‑party tool.

Wallper renders video frames directly into the macOS desktop window layer, which means your apps, widgets and icons stay fully interactive. Playback automatically pauses when a full‑screen app is active or when your Mac is running on battery, so there is no measurable impact on day‑to‑day use.

Wallpaper Engine itself is Windows-only and has no macOS version. Wallper is the native macOS equivalent: video wallpapers on the desktop, the Lock Screen and the screensaver, built on Apple's own frameworks rather than a compatibility layer.

You can browse and download high-quality 4K wallpapers directly from this page. All wallpapers are optimized for macOS displays, including Retina screens.
Are these wallpapers free to download?
Yes, you can download wallpapers for free and use them on your Mac.
How do I set a video wallpaper on Mac?
