You Can Quote Me On This

I need frequent reminders that there is a finish line and that I can get there. And like many others I have large files of quotes. I wanted exactly what Desktop Quote is - simple, on screen display of quotes with the option of adding my own to the included quote file. I need frequent reminding, so I have Desktop Quote change the quote every hour. I had no setup problems (and I'm a Boomer Dinosaur), it is seamless with my basic iMac, and several times after only 2 weeks when I was vegetating in front of my screen, the quote changed and I read it and got my caboose up and moving. Someone asked a NASA scientist what was so great about the Voyager Spacecraft. The reply was, 'Its ours, it works, and it wasn't designed to kill anybody.' I can say that about Desktop Quote software and you can quote me on that. 5 stars.

Dream come true. Finally quotes on desktop but support lacking

I have been looking for a quotes on my desktop from Text file since I transitioned from windows > Mac. This app seriously nails it.

The interface for the option does look dated, text is barely readable in options on dark mode. This doesn't affect the actual displaying of the quotes. The app itself so far works flawlessly and is exactly what I wanted. For $1 this was a complete no brainer.

BUY THIS APP. Support the dev. I hope he continues to develop it to make it even better!

This is a great little app

This is a great little app for anyone who likes having quotes on their desktop and OMG it’s FREE. It has a great set of preferences adn being able to add your own quotes is frosting on the cake. Like a few other, I did find that changing the font results in long waits, but once it finally saved I was, and am, a very happy camper with this app. Thank you to the developers!
