Sliding Puzzle FAQ

How do I set Sliding Puzzle as my screensaver on a Mac?

Install SCRNSVRS free from the Mac App Store, select Sliding Puzzle 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 Sliding Puzzle as a live wallpaper?

Yes. Click Set as Wallpaper in SCRNSVRS and Sliding Puzzle plays on your desktop behind your windows and icons. You can use it as screensaver and wallpaper at the same time.

Is Sliding Puzzle free?

Yes. Sliding Puzzle is Free Forever in SCRNSVRS – no account, no ads, no subscription.

Is Sliding Puzzle a video loop?

No. Sliding Puzzle 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 Sliding Puzzle 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 Sliding Puzzle costs next to nothing in everyday use.

Which Macs does Sliding Puzzle run on?

Sliding Puzzle needs macOS Tahoe 26 or later.
