DesktopWidgets

macOS / Productivité

DesktopWidget allows you to pin various Informations right onto your Desktop, these Informations are not interactive, so you cannot click or activate them accidentally, they behave mostly like a wallpaper. But instead of a static Image, you can get some interesting and relevant Informations about your Mac, without to use any additional Applications or browse the System Settings to get Informations about various things. In some cases, you don't need to open your Browser to check some Content online, DesktopWidget can attach various Informations right onto your Desktop.
