Precious Metals Suite Desktop App Floating precious metals widgets for Windows, macOS & Linux

The Desktop App of the Precious Metals Suite is a native application for Windows, macOS and Linux that brings live precious metals prices to the desktop as floating, freely positionable modules. Users assemble their own dashboard from over 16 module types — price tables, charts, calculators and price alerts — which stays in the foreground at all times without an open browser tab.

The Precious Metals Suite Desktop App is a native application built with Tauri (Rust binary + system WebView) for Windows, macOS and Linux that displays live spot prices and LBMA fixings for Gold, Silver, Platinum, Palladium and Copper as floating, always-on-top positionable modules on the desktop.

This edition is part of the Precious Metals Suite — a software product family by Sammeltresor UG (haftungsbeschränkt) for live precious metals prices. One account connects all editions (Desktop, Mobile, Browser, Office).

Precious Metals Suite Desktop App: Frequently Asked Questions

How do modules appear on the desktop?
In the account's web configurator you assemble modules without code (metal, currency, design, layout) and assign them to the Desktop App with a single click. The app loads the assigned modules automatically — without reinstallation and without export. They can then be placed as floating windows wherever you like; position, size and theme are saved.
Do I need to log in with my account password in the app?
No. The app is activated with a 25-character licence key (serial code) from the account; the account password is not required in the app. Each licence binds one device, which can be released again in the account.
Which operating systems are supported?
Windows 10 (from Build 1809) and 11 (64-bit), macOS 10.15 Catalina and later (Universal Binary for Apple Silicon M1–M4 and Intel), and Linux (Ubuntu 22.04+, Mint 21+, Fedora 36+, Debian 12+, openSUSE Leap 15.4+ with WebKitGTK 4.1).
How resource-efficient is the app?
It uses around 150 MB of RAM and approximately 15 MB on disk, because it uses the operating system's system WebView instead of a bundled browser. The programme is a native Rust binary (Tauri).
Why is always-on-top unavailable on Linux?
Under Wayland, keeping windows permanently in the foreground is restricted at the system level. On Windows and macOS the modules reliably stay in the foreground.
Does one Desktop licence cover all three platforms?
Yes. One Desktop licence covers Windows, macOS and Linux. Mobile, Browser and Office are separate editions that can be added with a licence key from the account.
How much does the Desktop App cost?
The Free plan is permanently free. For all metals and calculators there is Standard with 5-minute updates and Plus with per-minute updates. A 14-day money-back guarantee applies.
