Make your Mac feel like yours
Gloam is a native wallpaper app that turns your videos into a living desktop and lock screen. Set the mood, use your own clips, or build a private slideshow from the photos that matter to you.
Try it: switch between Desktop, Discover, My Scenes, the one-page Settings, and the compact menu-bar controls. Pick a scene to see the new wallpaper confirmation.

Your Mac. Your atmosphere.
Video behind your desktop
Pick a scene and it loops quietly behind your windows. Icons stay on top, as they should.
Lock screen too
Your clip can play on the lock screen too — not just a still image when you walk away.
Your own clips
Drop in an MP4, MOV, WebM, or GIF. Handy if you already have drone footage or a loop you like.
Native Mac app — no account required, and your personal media stays on your machine. Privacy details.
