Love the Concept, Mostly Useless Execution
I bought Desktopr so that I could put my Google Calendar on my desktop and glance at it quickly, simply by using my "Reveal Desktop" hot spot. Since my Google Calendar is for personal things only, I wanted to assign it to my personal desktop/space in Lion and have my work space be something else.
But I can't do any of that. When I use the reveal desktop hotspot, Desktopr is hidden as well, and I cannot for the life of me figure out how to assign it to a single space in Lion. It may be possible, but it's certainly not intuitive, and I can't find the answer anywhere on the internet. But the hotspot issue is the dealbreaker for me, since it means if I want to actually USE Desktopr, I need to hide every single open application. That defeats the purpose; it's easier to just keep a tab open for the calendar.
It's a fun program with a neat idea and an attractive interface, but it does absolutely nothing of what I need it to do.
Don’t buy if you have MacOS Sierra
I was modifiying which URLs I wanted to show on my desktop and suddenly, I couldn’t get Desktopr to activate again. I deactivated then reactivated. I tried quitting the app and then reopening it. I tried restarting my Mac. I tried deleting all of my URLs and putting basic websites in (Google, Facebook, etc). I tried turning on and off all of the settings. None of it worked. It remained inactive as if the app wasn’t even open in the menu bar. I consider myself a pretty technological savvy person, but I guess I’ll be using my generic default wallpaper as usual since there’s nothing that will make this program work again.
Totally Broken in High Sierra
Paid for this app. Running High Sierra. Doesn’t work — no sites display on the desktop when app is active. Worked for a second on inital boot up, but any attempt to change sites displayed breaks the app and not even re-installing resolves.
