an extra wrist
A Crown, a side button, eight watch faces, and a music hub — packed into one native floating watch.
The time sits beside your work, and so do the controls.

Attention stays on the main thread —
key information lives at the edge of your vision.
The Crown and side button form a complete path —
one less window switch.
Native SwiftUI and system playback —
no browser shell.
Core Experience
Work the way a watch works, not another window
MaciWatch compresses your interaction radius to a single watch: check the time, open a mini app, control music — all without pulling focus from what you were doing.

Watch Faces
Eight faces, from minimal to information-dense
Every face reads the same state source. Switching from minimal numerals to five-ring progress never restarts the app.
Analog
Classic hands with high-contrast ticks.
Modular
Time, activity, music, and reminders in dedicated zones.

Activity Rings

Music Hub
A player shrunk to wrist size
The music hub is built around your queue and what's playing — not a shrunken web page. Platform capabilities roll out as licensing and APIs allow.
Now Playing
Queue, cover art, and volume on one level
Play, pause, previous, next, and volume are all reachable through the Crown and side button without interrupting your desktop task.

NetEase Cloud Music

FAQ
Check before you buy
Licensing, system requirements, and the boundaries of music platforms — all answered here.
Is this open-source software?
No. MaciWatch is paid commercial software. Neither the app source nor this website is released under an open-source license, and redistribution or resale is not permitted.
What happens when a Yearly license expires?
Nothing breaks. The app keeps every feature you already have — updates simply pause until you renew ($4.9 / ¥29.9). Lifetime licenses include all future updates and never pause.
Which systems are supported?
Core features support macOS 14+. Newer system capabilities such as Liquid Glass enhance the experience when available, but never gate core features.
Does the music feature include content rights?
No. The app only provides playback and control; you are responsible for your accounts, content, and compliance with local regulations.
Is it related to Apple Watch?
There is no official relationship. Apple, Apple Watch, and macOS are trademarks of Apple Inc.; MaciWatch is independent software.
