Macify transforms your Chrome new tab page into a serene, cinematic experience inspired by macOS aerial screensavers. It replaces the default blank tab with stunning 4K video footage, turning each new tab opening into a moment of calm. The extension works seamlessly on any operating system, not just macOS, with no additional setup required.

Key Features

  • 156 macOS 4K Aerial Videos: A curated collection of ultra-high-definition videos showcasing landscapes, cityscapes, underwater scenes, and space imagery. These videos play automatically as your new tab background, providing a visually captivating and ever-changing backdrop.
  • Mindful Zen Mode: Activate a fullscreen video player with optional ambient music and an on-screen breathing guide. Choose from three breathing patterns: Coherent 5-5 (inhale 5s, exhale 5s), Box 4-4-4-4 (inhale, hold, exhale, hold each 4s), or Relaxing 4-7-8 (inhale 4s, hold 7s, exhale 8s). The mode includes gentle break reminders and a fixed-length auto exit timer, making it easy to incorporate short meditation sessions into your day.
  • Live Weather Information: Displays current temperature, "feels like" temperature, a 3-day forecast, UV index, wind speed, and air quality. This feature helps you plan your day at a glance without needing a separate weather app.
  • Take-a-Walk Panel: Shows the next sunrise and sunset times with a minute-precision countdown. This is useful for planning outdoor activities or simply not missing the golden hours of light.
  • Quick Access to Most-Visited Sites: A one-click shortcut to your frequently visited websites, saving time and reducing clutter.
  • Random Inspirational Quotes: Each new tab displays a different motivating quote. Optionally, the quote can be translated into your display language using Chrome's on-device Translator API, ensuring it's accessible in your preferred language.

To get started, install Macify, optionally enter your city for localized weather data, and enjoy a beautiful, functional new tab page that combines aesthetics with practical tools.
