Motion Wallpaper for holders of Remember to Breathe is available via this token gated page on Highlight.xyz. Please download the images and then choose your platform below for instructions on setting the wallpaper.

iOS (iPhone and iPad)

As of iOS 17, Motion Wallpaper is limited to a 2 second video in vertical format (1080px by 1920).

  • Download the compatible version from the token gated page on Highlight.xyz

  • open in your Photos app

  • click the “share” button, and then “Use as Wallpaper”

  • After a couple of seconds you should see “Try this Photo with Motion” in the bottom left. Click the icon and and now the timelapse should preview.

  • Select “Add” at the top right and you should be given to “Set a Wallpaper Pair” with both the motion version and blurred version for your home screen

Android (Samsung or Other)

Video Wallpapers only work natively with Samsung Devices. For other Google Devices, you need to download 3rd party tools such as VideoWall app or Video Live Wallpaper.

  • Start by touching and holding your Lock screen.

  • Tap Wallpapers in the top left corner.

  • Tap Gallery, and then navigate to and select your desired video.

  • Tap Done to see the preview of your wallpaper.

  • Done in the top right corner to set the video as your Lock screen wallpaper

Mac OS (Laptop or Desktop)

MacOS introduced live videos on the lock screen in Mac OS Sonoma. Unfortunately, there is no native way to add your custom videos. Until this feature is added, there is a workaround that requires you to replace the system videos.

  • Download the compatible version from token gated page on Highlight.xyz

  • Go to the Apple Logo > System Settings > Wallpaper

  • Choose one of the video wallpapers under the Landscape, CityScape, Underwater, or Earth Category

  • Once set, open Finder and choose "Go" from the Menubar, then Go to Folder (⇧⌘G is the shortcut)

  • Paste the following into the Address Bar

    • /Library/Application Support/com.apple.idleassetsd/Customer/4KSDR240FPS

  • This will bring you to a folder with the source video for Apple's video wallpaper

  • Find the video that's currently set as your wallpaper and copy the full filename

  • Rename to the full filename you copied to your clipboard (example: F390FE3B-FA61-483D-BADC-2447F89951BA.mov)

  • Copy the file to the folder you opened, authenticating to replace the file.

  • Restart your Mac

Note: it's possible this file gets replaced on future OS updates. Keep a local copy on your mac to perform this again if your wallpaper is replaced. Hopefully future versions of MacOS will allow this natively.

Windows (Laptop or Desktop)

Unfortunately, neither WIndows 10 or 11 support video wallpaper at the time of writing this. Fortunately, there is an amazing free app called Lively on the Microsoft Store that can handle it for you.

Linux

Figure it out yourself nerd. 😁
