Whenever you need a clean desktop,
DeskMat has you … covered.

With the push of a button, instantly hide all files and folders on your Desktop.

"Best One Yet. […] I've tried various Desktop covering apps (free and paid) and DeskMat wins. Why? Easy execution; excellent Developer correspondence […]"

- Mac Owner Since 1984, 5★, US Mac App Store 

Focus Filter Support

DeskMat can work in tandem with your Focus modes.
Add DeskMat as a Focus filter to the Focus(es) of your choice, and whenever you activate it, DeskMat will cover your Desktop (and uncover it when you deactivate that Focus).

"Exactly what I needed. It sounds like a small thing but saving a minute of moving stuff about for each time I do a demo will seriously save me hours!"

- Captain Muso, 5★, UK Mac App Store 

Support for Live/Dynamic Wallpapers

Not only can DeskMat cover your Desktop with a static image, it can also mirror your shuffling or dynamic wallpaper!

"Focus mode integration is excellent. […] Matthias is exceptionally good at making utilities that feel natural and indispensable."

- tedsvo, 5★, US Mac App Store 

App Triggers

Have DeskMat automatically hide your Desktop when you launch specific apps, or when you bring them to the foreground.

"Great little app!"

- Ivan_1986, 5★, DE Mac App Store 

The Way You Like It

Button Placement

Place the toggle button on your main screen, all screens, in your menu bar, or nowhere*.

Auto Triggers

Have DeskMat automatically cover your Desktop when you launch specific apps, or when they come to the foreground.
(that's where the * from above comes in)

Add DeskMat as an App Filter in a Focus mode of your choice and have it automatically cover your Desktop when the Focus becomes active.

Your Wallpaper

Use your current wallpaper (even dynamic or shuffling wallpapers work!), a solid color, a custom image, or just blur the Desktop.

One or All

If you have multiple displays, you have the option of hiding all your Desktops, or just one.

It covers your files, and your widgets!
