Out of sight shouldn’t mean out of mind.

Calendar apps hide behind a click. Meetings slip, deadlines sneak up. WallCal keeps your day where your eyes already go — the desktop.

Always in view

Your schedule lives on the wallpaper, so a glance at the desktop is all it takes.

Never in the way

WallCal stays behind every window. It never steals focus or clutters your Dock.

Nothing to set up

It reads the calendars and reminders already on your Mac. No new account, no sync service.

Features

Everything you need to see. Nothing you don’t.

The whole month, at a glance

Every event across every calendar, laid out on a clean month grid right on your desktop.

WallCal month view with a sidebar of upcoming events, on a Mac desktop

Events & reminders, side by side

A mini calendar with an event list next to it. Your to-dos from Reminders show up there too.

Or a timeline of your week

Swap the month for a weekly agenda. Choose the visible hours and how many days ahead to show.

Looks like it belongs on your Mac

Three appearances to match any wallpaper. Glass that refracts it, a clear overlay, or a soft blur.

One hotkey to bring it forward

Pop WallCal above your windows to move or resize it — even drag it to another monitor. Click any other app and it slips back onto the desktop.

Record any shortcut you like in Settings.

Lives in your menu bar

No Dock icon, no extra window. Jump between weeks or months, snap back to today and open Settings from one small icon.

Please go to System Preferences > Internet Accounts and sign in to your Google/Microsoft account, and enable Calendar/Reminder inside each account afterwards.

Currently, WallCal offers features as distinct add-ons, which necessitate a one-time in-app purchase for lifetime access. New features may be introduced as separate add-ons and sold individually. For Setapp users, WallCal is available at no extra cost.

Please check if you already granted calendar or reminder access permission to WallCal in System Preferences > Security & privacy > Calendar (or Reminder)

For now we cannot offer in-app free trial, but you can take a look at each add-on’s feature description and preview before making purchase! Alternatively you can try WallCal for free through Setapp (please scroll up to see the Setapp link). Please contact us at [email protected] if you still have any question or concern.

Yes! When you reposition WallCal (see “How can I reposition WallCal?”) you can drag it to the destination monitor to place it there.

After putting it in frontmost state (by using “Toggle calendar frontmost state” function), click on anywhere inside the calendar and drag to reposition, like how you do to position windows.

After putting it in frontmost state (by using “Toggle calendar frontmost state” function), hover on the pink border and drag to resize like how you do to resize windows.
