Features

Built around your media, not someone else's catalog.

📁

Local Folder Library

Point CineWall at any folder on your Mac or external drive. Your video collection becomes a reusable wallpaper library — no uploads required.

🔒

Lock Screen Sync

Your desktop wallpaper extends to your macOS lock screen. Fast and compatible sync modes — a feature most apps skip entirely.

A native-feeling glass control center instead of a generic settings panel. Every interaction feels like part of macOS itself.
