Hi everyone! I built LiquidWall because macOS still doesn’t have a simple, lightweight alternative to Wallpaper Engine. I wanted an app that could set live video wallpapers, stay minimal, and not drain system resources.
It started as a personal project — I just wanted my desktop to feel more alive. Then I added video support, then a photo gallery powered by Pixabay, and realized others might find it useful too.
LiquidWall is intentionally minimal: no cluttered menus, no complicated settings — just live wallpapers that work. Right now I’m mainly looking for feedback: what features you’d like to see, what formats you use, and how I can make the experience better.
Thanks for checking out my project — I’d love to hear your thoughts!
How does the licensing work for Pixabay images used as wallpapers, are there any limits on resolution or how long you can keep a wallpaper running?
Would love to see per-monitor customization so I can set a calm static photo on one display and a live video on the other, since right now it looks like the same wallpaper gets mirrored across all my screens.
