A new wallpaper, every day.

Oriel quietly sets a beautiful Unsplash photo as your desktop each morning. Pick the topics you like, and forget about it.

Everything it does, quietly

  • Fresh every morning

    A new high-resolution photo at the time you choose, or as soon as you sign in.

  • Your topics

    Nature, space, cities, or your own searches. Skip anything you'd rather not see.

  • Never repeats

    Every photo is remembered, so you won't see the same one twice.

  • Every desktop

    All monitors and all virtual desktops change together, or one photo per screen.

  • Light and quiet

    Lives in the tray in efficiency mode. Closing the window gives the memory back.

  • Credit where due

    Each photo links to its photographer on Unsplash. Keep your favorites forever.
