System requirements

• To run uWidgets: macOS 15 (Sequoia) or later.
• Notifications: asked for the first time you start a timer, so the countdown can tell you when it's done. Nothing else needs a permission.

Frequently asked questions

How do I add a widget?

Click the uWidgets icon in the menu bar and choose Add Widget. There are six: Clock, Date, Battery, System (processor, memory, and disk), Network (upload and download throughput), and Timer (a countdown that notifies you). Add as many as you like, including several of the same kind — two clocks and three timers is a perfectly good desktop.

How do I move, resize, or remove one?

Drag a widget to move it; it snaps to a grid and to its neighbours, and it remembers its spot per display. Right-click one for its menu: size, theme, Always on Top, Duplicate, and Remove.

What's free, and what's Pro?

All six widgets are free and always will be, in any number, in the medium size, with the Clear and Graphite themes. uWidgets Pro adds two more sizes and three more themes: it comes as a monthly or yearly subscription, or as a one-time lifetime purchase, and all three unlock exactly the same thing. The small size is a single-cell card for a corner; the large size is a different layout rather than a bigger one: a month calendar, a clock face with a second time zone, per-core processor load, and an extra tier of detail on the battery, network, and timer cards. The Pro themes are Frosted, Paper, and Accent.

How do I manage or cancel my subscription?

Subscriptions are managed by Apple, not inside uWidgets: open System Settings → your Apple Account → Media & Purchases → Subscriptions, or go to apps.apple.com/account/subscriptions. Cancelling stops the next renewal and keeps Pro until the current period ends, and deleting the app does not cancel anything. A lifetime purchase never renews, so there is nothing to cancel — but buying lifetime does not cancel a subscription you already have, so cancel that yourself if you have one.

I bought Pro on another Mac. How do I get it here?

Click the menu-bar icon, choose Unlock uWidgets Pro, and press Restore. Pro is tied to your Apple Account rather than to a particular Mac, so it works on every Mac you sign in with — whether you subscribed or bought lifetime.

Why did my widget go back to the medium size?

Because Apple reported that Pro is no longer active for this Apple Account — a subscription that has lapsed or been cancelled, a purchase that was refunded, or simply signing in with a different account. Paid sizes and themes fall back to medium and Graphite, but the size and theme you actually chose stay recorded in your layout file — nothing is moved, overwritten, or deleted. As soon as Pro is valid again — subscribing again, restoring a lifetime purchase, or signing in with the right Apple Account — your widgets return to exactly how you had them, on their own. There's nothing to set up again.

Do the widgets slow my Mac down?

They're built not to. There's one timer for the whole app rather than one per widget, a widget that's covered by another window stops updating until it's visible again, and a desktop where nothing is changing draws nothing at all.

What leaves my Mac?

Nothing. Every reading is taken from macOS, drawn, and forgotten — no history, no file, nowhere to send it. Your layout is a single file on your Mac. The only network connection uWidgets ever makes is to Apple, to sell or restore Pro. See the Privacy Policy for the details.

Where does uWidgets keep my layout?

In ~/Library/Application Support/uWidgets/layout.json. Deleting that folder resets the app to a fresh desktop.
