Apple has uploaded all of macOS Tahoe's beautiful new screen savers to its servers, and you can watch them right now without waiting for the operating system's release. The collection showcases some breathtaking aerial footage and nature scenes from the likes of India that will grace Mac screens later this year.

Rather than waiting to see what Apple has in store, you can preview every single screen saver from the upcoming macOS release immediately. Each video streams directly from Apple's content delivery network in high quality, so you can ignore any warnings your browser throws up.

How to Watch macOS Tahoe Screen Savers

Simply click any of the links below to start streaming the screen savers instantly in your browser in glorious 4K at 240 frames per second.

Indian Coastal and Natural Scenes

They also function as dynamic wallpapers that adapt throughout the day. Setting them from the Screen Saver section in System Settings makes both your wallpaper and screen saver change to the selected scene. They'll animate as screen savers and smoothly slow to a freeze-frame when you unlock to your desktop, just like Apple's existing aerial screen savers.

Alternatively, choosing them from the Wallpaper section changes only your desktop background without animation, but the wallpaper will still dynamically adjust its brightness and darkness to match your time of day.

These screen savers will automatically become available to all Mac owners when macOS Tahoe releases, but streaming or downloading them now gives you an early taste of what's coming to your desktop.

Why do you need a screensaver? Just let the display turn off.
No one needs one. Some people like them. :)

Nothing can displace the classic Mac live screensaver. Nothing! ?
I still have After Dark: Flying Toasters enabled. That is peak screensaver.

getting super technical, they are a relic of times when burn-in was a real concern & leaving anything statically on a screen for more than 5min was a bad idea (funnily enough we’ve come full-circle a bit in that regard with OLED but I digress)

either way, I appreciate the work Apple still puts into making some beautiful screensavers, especially with how power-efficient modern displays are (i.e. a screensaver can be left running with minimal power impact). it’s the little things :)
