Your backgrounds

Lite ships clean — you bring the walls.

No bundled wallpapers, no packs, no samples. NeoX Lite starts at ~0.6 MB and every background is one you add — drop in any image or video, tune it, and save the whole look as a style.

STEP 03✓SAVE AS A STYLE

Anything on your PC works — photos, renders, anime art, even looping video. The background editor and adaptive accent re-theme the whole desktop around whatever you choose.

How it works

Build your desktop the way you think.

Everything is direct. Drag widgets straight onto the wallpaper, select many at once, and capture the whole arrangement as a style you can bring back in one click.

01

Drag & place

Move clocks, weather, media and panels anywhere on the live wallpaper — resize from any edge.

CLOCK
02

Select & edit together

Windows-style multi-select — Ctrl/Shift to pick several widgets and restyle them all at once.

Clock
Weather
Divider
03

Save as a style

One click stores the background, every widget, colours and fonts. Restore your whole setup any time.

Desktop widgets

Not just a wallpaper — a command center.

Every widget lives on your desktop exactly as shown here: glass cards, theme-matched. Add and edit them in the Control Panel, arrange them on its Desktop page, and use them straight from the wallpaper.

Notecard · modular blocks

A card you build from blocks.

Start with an empty card, then stack the blocks you need — like a mini forum post. Each block carries only its own options, so nothing is cluttered.

Edit in the Control Panel

Inline editing — no pop-ups.

Pick a widget in the panel and edit it right there: add blocks, reorder, set status, priority and dates. The desktop stays for using — tick checklist items and switch a task's status directly on the wallpaper. Moving and resizing happen in the Desktop editor, so nothing shifts by accident.

Plus the essentials — Clock, Weather, Media, Icons & Dividers — and a Desktop editor with grid, snapping and alignment to arrange them. All theme-matched and saved inside your styles.

Screens & arranging

Every monitor, its own desktop.

Pick what each screen shows, move a table to another screen in one click, and arrange everything on a live picture — while the real desktop stays locked so nothing shifts by accident.

Main · Side · Off

Each screen shows exactly what you choose.

Main is your main layout. A Side screen gets its own tables and its own background. Off leaves the screen to Windows (or Wallpaper Engine).

Your main layout belongs to the monitor it was made for. Switch that monitor off and nothing gets squeezed onto the smaller screen — the layout simply waits, and comes back the moment the monitor does.

The Desktop editor

Arrange on a live picture — it snaps into place.

Open Desktop in the Control Panel to see each screen with your real wallpaper, tables and programs. Drag to move, pull a handle to resize — tables snap to the grid, to the screen's edges and centre, and to each other, with pink guides showing the line.

Pick several to align them, give them equal gaps or the same size, type exact X Y W H values, nudge with the arrow keys, and undo with Ctrl+Z. Pop it out into its own big window when you want room.

12 widget types

Notes, bookmarks, shortcuts, system monitor, PC specs, clock, weather, media, live web pages, icons & dividers — all resizable and restyleable, arranged in the Desktop editor.

Deep background editor

Images or video, plus brightness, contrast, hue, zoom, stretch and tint — by slider or exact number. New advanced vignette (size, softness, color) and instant, flicker-free apply.

Save & share styles

Capture your entire setup, then export and import it as a portable file between PCs.

Behind your icons

Renders as a true live wallpaper under the desktop — icons, right-click and the taskbar all keep working.

Adaptive accent

The whole UI takes its colours from your wallpaper — change the background and NeoX follows.

Multi-display layouts

Every monitor is Main, Side or Off — each with its own tables and background. Move any table to another screen in one click.

Programs inside tables

Drag desktop icons onto a table — one or a whole selection — and they live inside as clean icons. Click to open, drag to reorder or move between tables.

Desktop editor

Arrange on a live picture of each screen: snap to a grid and to other tables, align, equal gaps, exact sizes, undo. Pop it out into its own big window.

Nothing moves by accident

Tables are locked on the desktop itself — no stray drags or resizes. Your icons still drop straight in.

Styles remember programs

Switch to a style without a table and its programs step out to the desktop — switch back and they return to the same table, in the same order.

Lightweight & smooth

Engineered to stay out of the way — buttery dragging (blur drops mid-gesture), near-zero background CPU (idle widgets stop ticking), and no memory creep. It feels instant, even with a deck of live widgets.
