Spiral Day FAQ
How do I set Spiral Day as my screensaver on a Mac?
Install SCRNSVRS free from the Mac App Store, select Spiral Day 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 Spiral Day as a live wallpaper?
Yes. Click Set as Wallpaper in SCRNSVRS and Spiral Day plays on your desktop behind your windows and icons. You can use it as screensaver and wallpaper at the same time.
Is Spiral Day free?
Yes. Spiral Day is Free Forever in SCRNSVRS – no account, no ads, no subscription.
Is Spiral Day a video loop?
No. Spiral Day 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 Spiral Day 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 Spiral Day costs next to nothing in everyday use.
Which Macs does Spiral Day run on?
Spiral Day needs macOS Tahoe 26 or later.
