WideEye
Five panes.
One arrow key.
A hyper-minimal native macOS image viewer for ultrawide displays. Multi-pane layouts, keyboard-driven, privacy-first by design.
A strict viewer.
Sharp, fast, keyboard-driven.
1, 2, 3, or 5 panes.
Switch with one key.
Three-pane is the default — adjacent context where ultrawide gives you the room. Press 1 2 3 5 to swap layouts instantly. No menus, no settings panels.
Every action,
on the keyboard.
Arrow keys, space, jump-by-ten, fullscreen, slideshow, EXIF. Your hands never leave home row.
Inspection, not editing.
Camera, lens, exposure, ISO, focal length, location. Hit I to toggle. WideEye does not modify your files.
Slideshow with shuffle
Plays at your pace. Header pill shows what's on without breaking the frame.
Drop a folder, you're in
Drag onto the Dock icon, or ⌘O. WideEye scans and starts showing.
The boundaries
are the value.
Every feature WideEye doesn't have was a choice. The shape of the app is what's left when you remove everything an image viewer doesn't need.
“The window remembers its place; nothing else does.”
