About this app

TURN YOUR FAVORITE MOVIES AND SHOWS INTO WALLPAPER ART. Movie Canvas builds poster wallpapers from the films and TV you actually love, with no design skills needed. Choose a layout, pick your device, and it composes a crisp, gallery-ready image at your screen's exact resolution. Save it to Photos and set it as your lock screen, home screen, iPad wallpaper, or desktop background. FREE, WITH EVERYTHING INCLUDED No in-app purchases, no subscription and no adverts. Every layout, every size and every wallpaper you make is yours, unwatermarked. SURPRISE ME Tap once and get a handful of finished wallpapers with nothing to choose: a different layout, finish and cast every time, as often as you like. EIGHT LAYOUTS • Poster Wall: the classic grid, edge to edge • Fanned Mosaic: overlapping, tilted posters across the whole screen • Hero and Band: one cinematic backdrop with an arc of posters • Scatter Collage: layered posters at varied sizes and depth • One Sheet: a single film, full bleed, with its title and year • Filmstrip: your posters in the frames of 35mm film • Top 10: your highest rated, counted down • Spine Shelf: posters standing as cases on a shelf BUILD FROM A FRANCHISE OR A DIRECTOR No account and no library needed. Search a franchise and get every film in it, or pick a director or an actor and build a wall from their filmography. SEASONAL DESIGNS Blood running down the screen in October, snow and strings of lights in December, hearts in February. Every ornament is drawn to your screen's size, so it is sharp on a watch face and on a poster print. FITS EVERY SCREEN EXACTLY True device resolution for iPhone, iPad in either orientation, and desktop monitors, plus Apple Watch faces, square and story sizes for sharing, and 300 dpi prints up to 18 by 24 inches. BUILT FROM YOUR TASTE Pull posters from your ratings and watchlist, filtered by genre or studio, sorted by rating, release date, or when you rated them. Connect your movie account, or use it alongside How to Movie and How to TV. A built-in sample library lets you design a wallpaper the moment you open the app. A NEW WALLPAPER EVERY MORNING Movie Canvas adds a Make a Wallpaper action to Shortcuts. Pair it with Set Wallpaper in a personal automation and the app never has to be opened. DESIGN, SAVE, REPEAT Save any setup as a reusable job and re-run it whenever your list grows. Everything you make is kept, so you can come back to it. EVERYTHING, FOR NOTHING Batch generation, unlimited runs, the whole Surprise Me set and Combined Runs to chain multiple jobs are all included. There is nothing to buy. Design a wallpaper as unique as your taste in movies. Movie Canvas uses the TMDb API but is not endorsed or certified by TMDb.

Latest release

What’s New

Version 1.2 Sep 7, 2026

Movie Canvas is free now, with everything included. No in-app purchases and no subscription: every layout, the whole Surprise Me set, batch generation and Combined Runs, and nothing you make carries a watermark. Surprise Me. Tap once and Movie Canvas builds a handful of finished wallpapers with nothing to choose: a different layout, finish and cast every time, as often as you like. Four new layouts. One Sheet puts a single film full bleed with its title and year. Filmstrip runs your posters through the frames of 35mm film. Top 10 counts down your highest rated. Spine Shelf stands them up as cases on a shelf. Build from a franchise or a director, with no account and no library needed. Search any franchise for every film in it, or pick a director or an actor and build from their filmography. Seasonal designs, with ornaments drawn to your screen's size: blood in October, snow and strings of lights in December, hearts in February. A Shortcuts action, so an automation can put a fresh wallpaper on your lock screen every morning without opening the app. New sizes: Apple Watch faces, square and story sizes for sharing, and 300 dpi prints. Two finishes that are not dark. And everything you make is now kept. Wallpapers render at exactly your screen's resolution rather than three times it, so they are the size the app has always said they were.

Baseline captured. Growth appears after the crawler observes a changed rating count.

Momentum comes from crawler snapshots for the tracked storefront. “Viral growth signal” means unusually fast recent rating gains; it is an indicator, not download data.
