Apple is working on a Solar wallpaper engine for macOS 27 that groups aerial Landscape wallpapers and automatically switches variants based on the sun's position during the day.
When properly configured, the four Tahoe and Golden Gate landscape wallpapers appear under one entry each in Settings, and a new Automatic display option appears. Here's how to enable it.
If you've been using Safari's new Notify Me website monitoring feature in macOS 27, you may have been underwhelmed by the range of polling options available. The shortest waiting period between checks is 1 hour.
Luckily, you can edit the Notify Me automation database to enable polling every minute or few seconds. The trick here is that Safari only checks the requested polling interval when you set up the automation. It does not check how long ago the last website check was performed. Read below for the steps you need to follow.
You can add any device-specific wallpaper from iPhone 14 onwards on any iPhone running a compatible iOS version by editing a device backup, without losing your existing wallpapers.
Previously, you could use Nugget to import a .tendies package and install additional wallpapers, including stock device-specific wallpapers. There's a Discord server with more resources. Note that Nugget currently doesn't work if you're on iOS 27, see here.
If you don't want to go down that route, you can make a local encrypted backup of your iPhone, edit the PosterBoard database and supporting files, restore the backup and have the wallpapers available in the wallpaper carousel, as if you'd set them up. More details below.
