3D Text FAQ

How do I set 3D Text as my screensaver on a Mac?

Install SCRNSVRS free from the Mac App Store, select 3D Text 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 3D Text as a live wallpaper?

Yes. Click Set as Wallpaper in SCRNSVRS and 3D Text plays on your desktop behind your windows and icons. You can use it as screensaver and wallpaper at the same time.

Is 3D Text free?

Yes. 3D Text is Free Forever in SCRNSVRS – no account, no ads, no subscription.

Is 3D Text a video loop?

No. 3D Text 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 3D Text 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 3D Text costs next to nothing in everyday use.

Which Macs does 3D Text run on?

3D Text needs macOS Tahoe 26 or later.
