In the app you can adjust the colours, breath length, line weight and fill. It runs natively on your Mac, drawn live in real time – no video, never quite the same twice.

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