Gifting

Why Sundown makes a good gift

They'll use it every night

It sits in the menu bar and warms the screen as the evening goes on, so it isn't another app they open once and forget about.

Nothing to cancel

It's one payment for a Lifetime licence. Nothing renews on anyone's card next year.

They unwrap it themselves

Your note lands in their inbox first, with their licence key and the download sitting right underneath it.

Who it's for

The perfect gift for almost anyone with a Mac

A friend

For the one who's still on their laptop at midnight and swears they're about to stop. It's thoughtful without being a big production.

A family member

For the parent or sibling who reads on their Mac in bed. They set it up once and the evenings get softer from then on.

A colleague

A thank-you or a welcome gift they'll notice at their desk every evening, long after the card is gone.

“this is my favorite app on my entire mac and i’m not even exaggerating. the warm screen at night is so nice. i’ve gotten like four of my friends to download it.”

Three steps

How it works

  1. 1

    You write the gift

    Their email, your name and a short note. That's the whole form.

  2. 2

    They get an email

    It goes out as soon as your payment goes through, with your note, their key and the download.

  3. 3

    They set it up tonight

    They paste the key into Sundown and pick how warm they want the evening to be.

We put it on the email so they know who to thank.

Payment is handled by Stripe. Card details never touch our servers.

Questions

Before you gift

What if they already have Sundown?

The key still works. They can use it on another Mac or pass it on to someone who'd like it, and a Lifetime licence doesn't expire.

When does it arrive?

Right after your payment goes through. If you want it to land on a birthday, send it that morning.

Do they need a Mac?

Yes. Sundown runs on macOS 14 and later, on Apple silicon and Intel. On macOS 12 or 13 they can download Sundown Classic and use the same key.

What does it cost?

$79, once. It's the same Lifetime licence you'd buy for yourself.
