ICON-AWARE DESIGN
More Than an Animated Wallpaper
Instead of simply playing an animation behind your icons, DeskBlend uses a transparent overlay to adapt decorative scenery to detected desktop icon positions.
A Transparent Desktop Overlay
Grassland and ocean visuals are drawn over your desktop scene without modifying the original wallpaper file or replacing Finder icons.

Frequently asked questions
These descriptions reflect the current product design. Final functionality and permissions depend on the released build.
Does DeskBlend change my wallpaper or icons?
No. The design uses a transparent overlay for scene elements and does not require editing your original wallpaper file or icon assets.
Will every icon movement update instantly?
The scene adjusts using detected icon positions. Detection coverage depends on the selected sync mode, macOS behavior, and permissions. Some changes caused by desktop widgets may require enhanced sync or a manual refresh.
What is the difference between standard and enhanced sync?
The current plan uses standard sync for freely arranged icons. Enhanced sync is intended for auto-sorted and more complex layouts and may require additional Accessibility permission. Refer to the release notes for exact coverage.
Does it offer different visual themes?
This site demonstrates two scenes—Grassland and Ocean—using real MP4 recordings. The released theme catalog may differ.
Can I hide the desktop scene?
The current 1.0 plan includes a menu bar control to hide the transparent scene without quitting the app.
