About:
Satellite Eyes is a macOS utility that automatically sets your desktop wallpaper to the satellite view of your current location. It uses Wi-Fi geolocation to determine your position and fetches corresponding map imagery from Apple Maps. This provides a dynamic and context-aware desktop background that changes as you move between locations.

Key Features:

Automatic location-based wallpaper updates
Supports satellite, map, and hybrid view styles
Customizable update intervals and map zoom levels
Lightweight background operation

Use Cases:

Personalizing desktop with location-specific imagery
Creating a dynamic visual reference for frequent travelers
Adding a geographic context to your daily workspace

Alternatives:

Dynamic Wallpaper – Built-in macOS feature that changes wallpapers based on time of day, but lacks location-based functionality
Wallpaper Wizard – Manual wallpaper manager without automatic geolocation features
