DashWall displaying date, upcoming event countdown, today's calendar, reminders, and focus timer over a Mac wallpaper

01 / The idea

Stop opening Calendar
to answer a three-second question.

What is next? What needs doing? What am I focusing on? DashWall keeps the answers in the quietest place on your Mac: the desktop behind your work.

02 / What it does

Everything useful.
Nothing demanding.

01

Today, without the detour.

A live timeline brings together all-day plans, timed events, meeting links, and the countdown to whatever matters next.

Focus that survives real life.

Start a session from the desktop. Pause it, close the app, put the Mac to sleep. Your timer knows where you left off.

05 / Questions

Before it lives
on your desktop.

Does DashWall replace my wallpaper?+

No. It adds a transparent dashboard layer above your wallpaper and behind normal app windows. Your existing wallpaper stays exactly where it is.

Will it block my desktop icons?+

No. Locked Mode ignores mouse input so files and icons remain usable. Hold Option or choose Edit Desktop when you want to interact with DashWall.

Is my calendar uploaded?+

No. Calendar, Reminders, focus data, and wallpaper analysis are processed locally on your Mac.

Can I use it on an external monitor?+

Yes. DashWall can appear on the main display, one selected display, or all connected displays.

What happens after seven days?+

The dashboard shows a simple upgrade screen. Lifetime access is currently $4.99 with no recurring subscription.
