Browse and collect Bing wallpapers in HD, Full HD and UHD

Discover Bing's daily photographs and keep your favourites in your own collection. Browse the latest eight days of images from twelve regions, inspect large previews and download selected wallpapers in HD, Full HD or UHD where available.

Downloaded JPEGs include descriptive metadata: title, subject/description, copyright and keywords (tags), using EXIF and standard XMP. Comments contain only the concise image description. Bing's publication date and source links are kept in separate XMP fields. Existing photographer and camera metadata is preserved; no author, rating or camera capture date is invented, and the JPEG image data is not recompressed.

The image preview shows the description, copyright, resolution and tags. Keywords derived from Bing's captions include recognised subjects, categories and locations. Optional local image recognition adds further subject suggestions after a one-time model download. Images are not uploaded for recognition, runtime telemetry is disabled, and suggested tags may be incorrect.

Choose German or English for the interface independently of the Bing download region. Includes light and dark themes, remembered window size and maximised state, optional refresh on startup, existing-file detection and a context menu for showing images, opening their folder, ignoring images and deleting local files.

BingWallE is developed by Grütze-Software. It is an independent project, not an official Microsoft or Bing application. Image copyrights remain with the credited photographers and rights holders. The application does not change the desktop wallpaper automatically.
