WALI 0.1.0-beta.1

An early prerelease of WALI, a native video-wallpaper app for macOS 15 and newer.

  • Import your own videos, prepare silent playback versions, and assign wallpapers per display.
  • Keep wallpapers running when the library window closes, with playback controls in the menu bar and configurable low-power behavior.
  • Updated WALI branding across the app, menu bar, and drag-to-Applications DMG installer.
  • Optional account sign-in using one-time email codes through WALI’s production service. Local wallpaper use requires no account.

This build is configured for WALI’s production Supabase service. Marketplace rollout is still incomplete: the catalog is empty, catalog trust initialization is pending, and the media worker is currently stopped. Marketplace browsing, downloads, and creator processing are not ready for general use. Local video import and wallpaper playback are available without an account.

Native account lifecycle, production media processing, recovery exercises, and final legal review remain incomplete. This prerelease is for early evaluation; it does not represent App Store approval or completed marketplace acceptance.

Optional Lock Screen continuity is experimental and currently restricted to macOS builds 25F80 and 25G83. It uses the main display’s wallpaper for the current signed-in session, with an independent playback timeline. Only WALI Lock Screen Helper needs Full Disk Access for this feature. It does not appear at FileVault startup or before sign-in, and macOS updates can make it unavailable.

To install, open the DMG, drag WALI into Applications, then open it and import a video you have permission to use. Use Quit in WALI’s menu bar to stop background playback.

When switching from an older local build, first turn off Lock Screen continuity, save the change in that build, and fully quit it. Older development and prerelease libraries are not migrated automatically; keep your original videos. Intel hardware validation and the broader sleep/wake, display, and Lock Screen compatibility matrix remain incomplete.

Report reproducible bugs through GitHub Issues, including your Mac model, macOS version/build, and reproduction steps. Keep credentials and private media out of public reports.
