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).
