Live wallpapers

Animated wallpaper for Windows 10 and 11.

A live wallpaper replaces your static desktop background with something that moves — weather that tracks the real sky, an audio spectrum that follows whatever is playing, a slow abstract field. WidgetSpark ships 12, and your icons keep working exactly as they did.

It stops when you stop looking

The wallpaper pauses itself when a full-screen app is in front, so it costs you nothing while you are gaming or watching something. No frames are drawn for a screen nobody can see.

Built for more than one monitor

Scenes either span every display as one continuous image or draw independently on each, depending on which suits them. You can also run one on the primary monitor and leave the rest alone.

Your icons stay put

The wallpaper is painted behind the desktop icons, not over them. Everything you drag, drop, double-click and right-click behaves exactly as it did before.

Overlays, if you want them in front

Some scenes run as an overlay instead — above your icons, below your windows — and only take the mouse where they actually draw, so what is underneath stays clickable.
