Wallpaper Wizard 2 F.A.Q.

Yes. We offer a free seven-day trial. You can download and install Wallpaper Wizard 2 directly, or open it in Setapp.

If you haven't tried Setapp yet, give it a go—your first seven days are free, and you can use Wallpaper Wizard 2 plus more than 260 other apps during that period.

You need OS X El Capitan 10.11 or later and at least 80 MB of free disk space.

By default, Wallpaper Wizard 2 keeps background collections in the cloud, so you need an internet connection to update the library and view new backgrounds.

To enjoy backgrounds offline, add pictures and collections to your Roll in advance. Wallpaper Wizard 2 temporarily stores these images on your Mac so you can continue rolling wallpapers without a connection.

You can change wallpapers manually or set Wallpaper Wizard 2 to change them automatically at regular intervals.

Change backgrounds automatically

1. Build a background library:
   1. To add a collection, open it from the Explore or Favorites tab, then click Add to Roll ⊕.
   2. To add a single picture, open a collection, hover over the picture, and click ⊕.
2. Start rolling backgrounds:
   1. If the Roll is empty, Wallpaper Wizard 2 begins changing your desktop background as soon as you add pictures.
   2. If you've used the Roll before and stopped it, click Play in the Roll tab or in the app menu.

Set a permanent wallpaper

If you'd like to keep one picture on your desktop, click the picture preview and select Set Desktop Picture.

Yes. To shuffle pictures in the Roll, open the Roll tab and click the shuffle button.

Yes. Wallpaper Wizard 2 supports as many displays as your Mac can connect, and you can assign a unique background to each display.

Refer to the multi-display configuration guide for more details.

By default, Wallpaper Wizard 2 updates the active desktop's background to match the current picture in the Roll. As you switch between desktops, each one displays the same background.

If you set a permanent wallpaper, Wallpaper Wizard 2 applies it across all desktops (the app or its menu must be running).

To disable this feature:

1. Open the Roll tab.
2. Click the gear icon.
3. Deselect Set wallpapers on all desktops.

Yes. Wallpaper Wizard 2 has a Favorites tab for saving collections and pictures. To use it, sign in with your Wallpaper Wizard 2 account (or create one). Favorites are synced across all your Mac computers with the same account.

• To favorite a picture: hover over it and click ★.
• To favorite a collection: open it and click ★ next to the title.

• To remove a picture: hover over it, point to the ☑ button, and when it changes to ☒, click it.
• To remove a collection: hover over a picture from that collection, click Open in Collection, then hover over the ☑ next to the title and click ☒.

If you want to find the picture later, add it to Favorites before removing it from the Roll.

Wallpaper Wizard 2 collections contain high-quality HD images, which can take up space. However, most resources stay in the cloud. Your Mac only stores pictures currently in the Roll.

When you remove a picture from the Roll, Wallpaper Wizard 2 clears its cache, freeing disk space.

Most likely, Wallpaper Wizard 2 is paused. This can happen if:

• You set a permanent wallpaper.
• Your Roll is empty (or contains only one picture).

To resume rolling: open the Wallpaper Wizard 2 menu and choose Play Roll.
