ProjectHQ for Mac: your sites in a window of their own

ProjectHQ is now a Mac app: a window of its own, notifications from your Mac, desktop widgets for your sites, and updates that install themselves.

ProjectHQ now comes as a Mac app. It's the whole of ProjectHQ in a window of its own, so there's no browser tab to keep open. Close the window and the app stays in the Dock, so you still hear the moment a visitor writes.

At the first start it asks whether it may send you notifications. Say yes and a notification comes from your Mac as soon as someone writes in your chat. A click opens the conversation, even with the window closed. The Dock icon shows how many conversations are waiting, and the icon itself follows your Mac's dark mode.

The app keeps itself up to date. New versions download in the background, and once one is ready you'll see Restart to update in the top bar. One click and you're on the new version.

It also puts your sites on your desktop with three widgets (they need macOS 14 or later):

  • Site results: what your site's goal brought, and the visitors behind it.
  • Your sites: each site's goal side by side, and who's on them now.
  • Needs you: who to reply to and which articles to finish, across your sites.

Download it from projecthq.pro/download. It's also under Get the apps in your user menu and in the footer of our site. It runs on Apple silicon and Intel Macs and signs in with your ProjectHQ account.
