As answered by people managing Walyro and TaskDisplay.
Walyro's answer
Most Mac wallpaper apps hand you a gallery to browse. Walyro starts from your own footage instead. You point it at your MP4 or MOV clips and it plays them as live wallpapers up to 4K, with a different one on each display. The whole library stays on your Mac, with no online catalog, no account, and no tracking. It's a native Swift and SwiftUI app, so it pauses on fullscreen and eases off on battery to stay light on the CPU.
Walyro's answer
Choose Walyro if you want your own videos on your desktop rather than a prebuilt gallery, and if you'd rather keep everything on your Mac. Nothing uploads, there's no account, and there's no subscription: you download it free and pay once to unlock the full app. It still covers what the others are known for, per-display wallpapers, up to 4K, and playlists that rotate on their own, while staying native and light on the CPU. If what you want is a large online catalog of ready-made wallpapers, a gallery-first app may suit you better. Walyro is for people who want to use their own clips.
Walyro's answer
Mac users who want their desktop to feel personal and who care about keeping files on their own machine. That includes people coming from Wallpaper Engine on Windows who want a native Mac option, multi-monitor setups that want a different scene on each screen, and anyone with their own clips (footage they shot, renders, or edits) who would rather use those than pick from a stock library. The common thread is wanting control over the wallpaper without sending anything to the cloud.
Walyro's answer
I wanted my own videos living on my desktop without uploading them to someone's cloud or making yet another account. The Mac apps I tried were built around their own galleries, and Wallpaper Engine, the app people always point to, doesn't run on Mac at all. So I built the one I wanted: point it at your own clips, keep the whole library on the device, and make it feel native instead of a web wrapper. That starting point shaped the rest, from previewing each display before you apply a wallpaper to pausing playback the moment you go fullscreen or switch to battery.
Walyro's answer
Walyro is a fully native macOS app, with no Electron or other cross-platform runtime. It's written in Swift with SwiftUI and AppKit for the interface, Combine for state, and AVFoundation and AVKit for video playback. In-app purchases use StoreKit 2, and launch-at-login uses ServiceManagement.
Walyro's answer
Walyro is a consumer app used by individual Mac users, so there are no named business customers to list.
