Chronoscape
A landscape that keeps time
Only for Mac

Handpicked places, each one alive through every hour and every weather. Your desktop stops being a photo and starts being a window.
Look out of your window. Whatever the sky is doing out there, your desktop is
doing the same.
Chronoscape sets your Mac's wallpaper to match the real time of day and the
current weather where you are. Morning light in the morning. Rain when it rains.
Dark when it gets dark.
ONE PLACE, EVERY HOUR, EVERY SKY
Each scene is a single real location, seen across every hour of the day and
every weather condition. Not a slideshow of unrelated photos. The same view,
following the same sun, under the same sky as the one outside your window.
Chronoscape reads the light and the weather, then picks the frame that matches.
Nothing animates. Nothing runs in the background. The work happens only when the
sky actually changes, which is to say: rarely, and quietly.
WHAT YOU GET
• Wallpaper that follows the real sunrise and sunset for your location
• Weather matching: clear, cloudy, rain, snow, fog
• A different scene on every display, each at that screen's native resolution
• Retina and ultrawide, handled properly
• An optional timer to move between places through the day
• Places from Bagan to Lake Bled to the Scottish Highlands, with more arriving
• Works offline, using your Mac's own clock
FREE, AND PRO
Five scenes are free. No account, no sign-up, no trial that quietly ends.
Chronoscape Pro opens every place, every perspective, and every new scene the
moment it lands. Available monthly, yearly, or once and for good.
QUIET BY DESIGN
Location is optional. You can type a city instead. If y
Chronoscape asks only for coarse location, accurate to about a kilometre, and
uses it for two things: the weather where you are, and
sunset times.
Weather comes from Open-Meteo, a free public service. Your coordinates go there
and nowhere else. There is no analytics, no advertising
kind. On disk, Chronoscape keeps only the image currently on each display.
Requires macOS 14 or later.
Chronoscape Pro is available as a monthly or yearly auto-renewable subscription, or as a one-time lifetime purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
