Available nowOne-time purchase. Every 1.x update free. For macOS 14 or later, on any Mac.

Light, dark, clear and tinted

At home on your desktop.

They look like Apple’s widgets because they are Mac widgets: they follow light and dark mode and macOS Tahoe’s clear and tinted looks, and while you work in an app, macOS dims them with the rest.

A clock, Up Next, Activity, Now Playing, a timer and the battery on a Mac desktop at dawn, in the light look.

Light. Right beside Apple’s own widgets on a light desktop.

Small, Medium, Large and Extra Large

The face answers. Large explains.

Every widget comes in the sizes that suit it, from Apple’s own four. Make one bigger and it tells you more.

Sizes are in points, as macOS draws widgets. Pick one in Edit Widgets before you add a widget, or right-click a widget on your desktop to change it. In any size, a click does the widget’s job: join the call, play the song, open the app it comes from.

Adding them

Added the Mac’s own way.

There’s nothing new to learn. ZincWolf’s widgets are in macOS’s own widget gallery, next to Apple’s, and macOS keeps them where you put them.

  1. 1Right-click the desktop and choose Edit Widgets. Or click the date in the menu bar and choose Edit Widgets at the bottom of Notification Center.
  2. 2Search for ZincWolf. Every ZincWolf widget is in the gallery, beside Apple’s, in each size it comes in.
  3. 3Drag one onto your desktop or click it. macOS puts it in place and moves your desktop icons aside for it, and it’s live straight away.

  • Yes, it’s available now: $19.99, once. Buy it here and download it straight away; your license key comes on screen and by email. Already bought it? Download ZincWolf Widgets from this page any time.

  • $19.99, once, the same as ZincWolf Dock and ZincWolf Island. Every 1.x update is free, there’s no subscription and no account, and a license is for one Mac. It’s sold directly from zincwolf.app, with a full refund within 14 days if it isn’t for you.

  • Yes. They’re the Mac’s own kind of widget, made with Apple’s WidgetKit, so they sit on your desktop or in Notification Center like Apple’s, follow light and dark mode and macOS Tahoe’s clear and tinted looks, and dim while you work in an app, as your Mac’s Desktop & Dock settings say.

  • Right-click the desktop and choose Edit Widgets, or click the date in the menu bar and choose Edit Widgets at the bottom of Notification Center. Search for ZincWolf, pick a size and drag a widget where you want it, or just click it. To remove one, right-click it and choose Remove Widget.

  • 56 of them, in six groups. Music and media: Now Playing, Lyrics, Photo Frame and On This Day. Clocks: Sky Clock, Clock, Numerals Clock, Day and Night, Minimal Clock, Digital Clock, Flip Clock and Modular Clock. Your day: Up Next, Calendar Month, Countdown, Today at a Glance, Timer, Pomodoro, Focus Time, Stopwatch, Weekend, Birthdays, Progress, To-Do, Note, Year in Dots, Moon, Daylight and Word of the Day. Your Mac: Battery, Devices, Temperature and Fans, Activity, Network, Mac Health, Wi-Fi Signal, Storage and Drives, Top Apps, Disk Activity and Time Machine. Screen Time: Screen Time, Screen Time Week, Categories, Breaks, App Time and Most Used. Developer: AI Usage, GitHub Actions, GitHub, Git, GitHub Contributions, Dev Servers, Containers, Endpoints, Commands and Reviews.

  • Apple’s own: Small, Medium, Large and Extra Large, each widget in the sizes that suit it. The bigger it is, the more it shows: Up Next’s Small says how long until your next event, and its Extra Large shows today and tomorrow side by side. Right-click a widget on your desktop to change its size.

  • Yes, as many times as you like, in any size, and each copy can be set up on its own: right-click it on the desktop and choose Edit Widget. A Clock for another city, a Countdown for another date, a Git widget for another project, a Top Apps sorted by memory beside one sorted by the processor.

  • Yes, but you won’t see it. ZincWolf Widgets runs in the background with no icon in the Dock or the menu bar: it reads what your widgets show and keeps them live, and it can open at login. Opening it from Finder or Spotlight shows its Settings: your license, each widget’s options and the permissions some of them need.

  • Only the ones the widgets you use need, and only when you click: Calendar for Up Next and the calendar widgets, Contacts for Birthdays, Photos for On This Day, Full Disk Access for the Screen Time widgets to read macOS’s own Screen Time records, and Automation for Now Playing with Music and Spotify. A widget without its permission says so, and a click takes you to Settings.

  • Yes. Mac widgets have no daily limit like the iPhone’s: times and timers count by themselves, and ZincWolf Widgets redraws the live ones as things change, such as a song’s progress, your Mac’s load or your network’s speed, every couple of seconds.

  • No. It’s a native Mac app, and it reads what a widget shows only while that widget is on your desktop or in Notification Center: remove a widget, and whatever fed it stops.

  • Yes, and each works fully on its own. ZincWolf apps on the same Mac share what they have in common: write a note in the Dock or the notch and the Note widget shows it, tick off a task in the To-Do widget and it’s done in the Dock too, and a timer started in one counts down in the others.

  • No. It shows what your Mac already has, on your Mac, and keeps no history of what you do. To show a song’s words, Lyrics sends its title, artist and length to LRCLIB, a free lyrics library. The developer widgets reach only what you point them at: GitHub through your own GitHub CLI, and the addresses you add to Endpoints; Git only reads your folders and never fetches, and Commands runs only the commands you set up. AI Usage reads the usage figures Claude Code and Codex keep on your Mac. The Sky Clock and Daylight use a city you pick, so Widgets never asks for your location. Apart from that, it only checks your license and looks for updates.

  • No. A forecast needs an online weather service and your location, and ZincWolf Widgets shows what your Mac already knows, on your Mac. macOS’s own Weather widget sits nicely beside them.

  • Any Mac with macOS 14 Sonoma or later, with Apple silicon or Intel. The clear and tinted looks come with macOS 26 Tahoe.

  • Some of what it reads, like macOS’s own Screen Time records, your Mac’s temperatures and what any app is playing, and running your own commands, isn’t allowed in the Mac App Store, so ZincWolf sells it directly, as it does ZincWolf Dock and ZincWolf Island.

A desktop worth a glance.

Your music, your day, your Mac and your code, in widgets that look as if they came with it. Available now, for $19.99 once.
