In the app you can adjust the colours, circles, drift speed and trail length. It runs natively on your Mac, drawn live in real time – no video, never quite the same twice.

Circle Crossings FAQ
How do I set Circle Crossings as my screensaver on a Mac?
Install SCRNSVRS free from the Mac App Store, select Circle Crossings in the library and click Set as Screensaver. macOS starts it whenever your Mac is idle, exactly like a built-in screensaver.
Can I use Circle Crossings as a live wallpaper?
Yes. Click Set as Wallpaper in SCRNSVRS and Circle Crossings plays on your desktop behind your windows and icons. You can use it as screensaver and wallpaper at the same time.
Is Circle Crossings free?
Circle Crossings is included in SCRNSVRS Unlimited. It's free for your first 7 days; after that Unlimited is $1.99/month or $9.99/year (€1.99/month or €9.99/year) for every screensaver, including new ones. It can also come up in Free this month, when 25 premium screensavers are free for everyone.
Is Circle Crossings a video loop?
No. Circle Crossings is rendered live on your Mac with Metal, so it never repeats and stays sharp on any display size. The clip on this page is a screen recording of the real thing.
Will Circle Crossings slow down my Mac or drain the battery?
No. SCRNSVRS drops to 30 fps on battery and stops rendering when the wallpaper is covered by a full-screen app, so Circle Crossings costs next to nothing in everyday use.
Which Macs does Circle Crossings run on?
Circle Crossings needs macOS Tahoe 26 or later.
