jDate puts the Jalali date in your Mac’s menubar, with the Gregorian and Hijri dates one click away. It also shows Iranian holidays, your own calendars, birthdays, weather and world clocks.

The popover shows the month with holidays in red and the Gregorian and Hijri day under each date. Click a day to see what’s on it. Want more room? Switch to the wide layout, with the calendar and events side by side.
No account and no tracking. The holiday calendar is built in, so it works without internet.
All three dates at a glance. Click one to copy it, or use ⌘C, ⌘X, ⌘A.
Solar and lunar holidays, Yalda, Chaharshanbe Suri and more, with an adjustable Hijri offset.
Google, iCloud and others through macOS Calendar, plus public ICS subscriptions.
From Contacts or your own list, in any of the three calendars, with a notification on the day, a year calendar and a timeline.
Five to seven days from Open-Meteo, MET Norway, wttr.in, OpenWeatherMap or WeatherAPI.
Today, Month, World Clock, Upcoming, Weather and Countdown, for the desktop or Notification Center.
Seasonal, weather and animated headers, your own photo or video, and any font installed on your Mac, Persian fonts first.
Nowruz, Yalda, Ramadan, Christmas, the 4th of July and more switch on by themselves on their days.
Pick the color for holidays and weekends, and which days are the weekend: Friday, Thursday and Friday, or Saturday and Sunday.
Set the popover and widget color, opacity and blur, from see-through to frosted, like Terminal. One click copies Terminal’s Pro look.
Show or hide each line of the header, set its size and color, and see the picked day’s events right in it.
Click a day and the header, the date tiles and the copy shortcuts all switch to it. Click the header to go back to today.
One-line date tiles with less padding, and the button bar at the bottom can go. Its shortcuts keep working.
Pick a shape and colors, and write your own date format for the menubar.
Date converter, date difference, world clocks, a global shortcut (⌃⌥J) and launch at login.
Thirteen occasion themes, from Nowruz blossoms and Ramadan lanterns to Christmas snow and 4th of July fireworks. They turn on during their days and go back to your own style after. You can also pick one of thirteen animated styles with your own colors, or use a photo or a looping muted video.
The popover is real Liquid Glass now, and blurs your desktop the way Terminal does, with a preset that matches Terminal’s Pro profile. Birthdays get a year calendar and a timeline. You choose every line of the header, its size and color, and the date tiles copy whichever day you click.
Show, hide and reorder every part of the popover, size each widget to full, half or a third, and preview the result as you go.
Right-click your desktop, choose Edit Widgets and search for jDate.
