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