BioniX GIF Wallpaper App
GIF wallpapers are the hype when it comes to computer desktops. Who doesn’t want a cool, moving gif wallpaper on his PC desktop? Or to run an anime and live gif wallpaper in HD? Are you a fan of beautiful, aesthetic gif wallpapers? Or, maybe you would like a Sharingan or Demon Slayer gif wallpaper on your desktop? Some of us like a GIF wallpaper featuring space, anime, art or emotions. Others like horror GIF wallpapers, or featuring game scenes and movies. Any yet others want their moving and animated wallpapers to have animals, nature, sports or news. Whatever type of animated GIF you like, BioniX is there for you. With so many great free sources of GIF wallpapers, your desktop will never be boring.
Dual-monitor and multi-monitor function for GIF wallpapers
With BioniX you can show an individual wallpaper on each of your screens. You can share the funniest, or most beautiful, or the coolest GIFs with your friends and colleagues, by showing the chosen GIF wallpaper directly on the desktop! The animated GIF will be displayed under the icons, directly on your Windows desktop.
Play GIF wallpapers on every Windows operating system
With BioniX you can set an animated GIF as your desktop background on all Windows operating systems: Windows 10, Windows 11, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows Vista and Windows XP.
Resize small GIF images
All animated GIF resolutions are supported, including 1920×1080. Sometimes GIF images have a small resolution. If you want to enlarge GIFs, BioniX has a complete range of “Resize” functions. The “auto zoom” function will automatically determine the best wallpaper resize options. Alternatively, you can chose the “custom zoom”. This allows you to enlarge the GIF wallpaper to scale. For example, you can resize the wallpaper to be displayed on the desktop 2 times or even 20 times larger than the original. The “fit” function will resize the GIF image until one border touches the edges of the screen. The “fill” function will increase the wallpaper size until all the empty spaces around the image are removed. Because the “fill” function preserves the aspect ratio of the image, some of the image borders can get out of the screen. The “stretch” function avoids that, by ignoring the aspect ratio. And finally, with BioniX you can manually set the width and height of the wallpapers.
Change run speed
Animated GIFs consist of a series of static images, which are displayed very fast one after the other. This makes our brain see moving GIF wallpapers. With BioniX, you can slow down or speed up the animated GIF, by setting the “play speed” parameter.
Optimized background color
When the GIF wallpaper does not occupy the whole desktop, it is important to have a matching background color. BioniX allows the user to manually set the color, to best match the animated GIF. Alternatively, BioniX can automatically detect the main color in the first frame, and use it as background color.

Follow the next steps and in seconds you will run a GIF on your desk!
Step 1. Chose the screen on which you want the GIF wallpaper to run
When you have multiple screens, you can use BioniX to display different wallpapers on each of them. You can show animated GIFs on a single screen only, or on multiple screens. Or, you can combine a GIF wallpaper on a screen and a static or video wallpaper on the other screens.
First, you should pick the computer monitor on which to show your animated GIF.
Here you can see the main window and the Playlist editor from BioniX. In the main app window, there are three screen icons, each corresponding to one computer screen. For example, here we chose to display a GIF wallpaper on two screens: the right and the middle computer monitor. In the image, the selected monitors are marked with white arrows.
Step 2. Go to menu wallpaper type effect
Because each computer screen can have a different wallpaper effect, you have to set it individually. Right-click on the screen icon of your choice. In the menu that appears, click on Wallpaper type effect.
Step 3. Set the wallpaper effect to animated wallpaper (GIF)
After clicking on Wallpaper type effect, a new menu appears. Here, select the animated GIF (video) button. Then, click OK.
Step 4. Start playing the GIF wallpaper
In the wallpaper playlist, identify the GIF wallpapers you want to play. Drag and drop them to the screens where you want them to run (see white arrows in image). The animated GIF will start playing on your screen desktops.
Step 5 (optional). Play GIF wallpapers frame by frame
Once you have the animated GIFs playing, you can pause them. Or, you can play them frame by frame. Use the buttons under each screen icon, as indicated in the image here.
