Is there a way to download the FlipIt on MacOS?

If not, I'd love to see it built.

Please let me know.

Many thanks.

Hi @jsonjlee.

This does not work with MacOS. Getting it to work might be a bit of a challenge as (I assume) the way they implement screen savers is quite different from how it is done on Windows. Also, the .NET Framework and WinForms we are currently using does not work on MacOS.

Have you looked at Fliqlo? That project works on Mac and was the original inspiration for FlipIt.

Hi Phil,

I appreciate you getting back.

Is there a way for you to make it work with MacOS? I would seriously love to use it as my wallpaper.

I have seen and used Fliqlo before, but I much prefer the world clock that you have.

Please let me know.

I'm sure there is a way. However, it is not high on my list of priorities and I imagine it would take at least a couple of days to implement assuming I could use .NET to implement it.

Feel free to take the code and develop it yourself though.
