How to Get Apple TV’s 4K Cinematic Screen Savers on Mac
Khamosh Pathak
Apple’s professionally shot 4K cinematic screen savers are one of the best things about the Apple TV. If you’d like to use them on your Mac, you can get them for free using an open-source app. Here’s how.
The Secret? The Amazing Aerial App
The free Aerial app allows your Mac to access Apple’s own cinematic screen savers, which include fly-over videos and slow-motion drone footage shot by community members. Aerial supports Intel and Apple Silicon Macs running macOS 10.2 and higher.
To get started, head over to the Aerial website and download the application. After opening the DMG file, drag the Aerial Companion app to the Applications folder.
