About This Software

A living desktop

Morphic is live wallpapers for Windows: scenes, videos, images, GIFs, web pages, apps and audio. A native engine written in C++ with DirectX 11 draws your desktop straight through the GPU — no browser layers, no background bloat. Wallpapers live while you enjoy them and know when to step aside when you have work to do.

Features

• Library — search, categories, tags and favorites: videos, images, GIFs, scenes, web pages and audio in a single showcase.

• Multiple monitors — different wallpapers on every screen, one scene stretched across all displays, per-monitor FPS and volume.

• Playlists — wallpapers change on a timer and a weekday schedule; smart shuffling never shows the same scene twice in a row.

• Scene editor — layers of images, particles, text and shaders; drag-and-drop, gizmos, a keyframe timeline with smooth easing curves.

• Effects — bloom, waves, cursor and click ripples, god rays, color grading, .cube LUTs; every effect has its own settings and mask.

• Particles — snow, rain, bubbles, leaves, fireflies, fireworks: emitters of any shape, turbulence, reaction to music and mouse.

• Shaders — a GLSL layer right in the editor: custom uniforms with sliders, up to four textures, mouse and click input, a gallery of ready presets.

• AI tools — cut an object out of a photo and build a depth map for 2.5D parallax.

• Playback rules — auto-pause in fullscreen games and apps, battery saver, wallpapers go quiet when music is playing elsewhere; custom rules for chosen applications.

• Hotkeys — pause, next and previous wallpaper, mute — without leaving your game.

• Compact mode — a slim panel docked to the edge of the screen for when the library is in the way.

• Import & export — move scenes as .mpkg packages and share them outside the Workshop.

Steam Workshop

Publish your scenes straight from the editor — and subscribe to other people's in one click. Browsing, search, item pages with descriptions and ratings, voting — all inside the app. Steam keeps downloaded scenes up to date automatically. From calm landscapes to interactive living scenes — there is something for every taste.

Lightweight by design

• A dedicated D3D11 renderer: smooth 60 FPS at minimal system cost; frame rate caps are configurable globally and per monitor.

• Auto quality: when CPU load spikes, the frame rate steps down on its own.

• Auto-pause: in fullscreen games, on low battery, while the PC sleeps.

• Wallpapers restore themselves after a reboot — even without launching the app.

• Steam Cloud carries your settings, library and playlists to another PC.

Languages

The interface speaks 12 languages: English, Russian, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Polish, Portuguese-Brazil, Turkish, Simplified Chinese, Japanese and Korean — detected automatically on first run.
