Frequently asked questions
How do I apply a wallpaper?
Browse Discover, download an artwork using its download control, then use its play/apply button. Choose a display and adjust Fill, Fit and cropping in Wallpaper Details.
Can I import my own artwork?
Yes. Use Import Wallpaper or Command-O to select an image or video. Personal imports remain watermark-free. You can organize them with a category and up to five tags.
What does Support This Art unlock?
The optional one-time purchase removes the Aether logo and support message from catalog wallpaper playback. There is no subscription. Catalog artwork is used inside Aether Engine; the purchase does not provide an export license.
How do I restore my purchase?
Choose Restore Purchases in the footer or Settings. Use the Apple Account that made the original purchase.
My video will not play. What should I do?
Aether checks that a video can decode a frame before applying it. If it cannot, the previous wallpaper is kept. Try exporting the video as a Mac-compatible H.264 MP4 or HEVC MP4 with the hvc1 tag, then import it again. Contact support if it still fails.
How can I reduce battery use?
Use a still wallpaper or enable the app’s power-saving options to pause animation on battery, during full-screen use or while the display sleeps.
