Spacedash is a free desktop widgets app for Windows. It puts widgets such as clocks, weather, PC stats, media controls, a volume mixer and shortcuts on your monitors, laid out the way you like, and it has full support for the CORSAIR XENEON EDGE, the 14.5-inch 2560 × 720 touchscreen, in both of its modes. It's made by Qaem, an independent developer.

No. Spacedash runs on any monitor on Windows 10 or 11. It started as the dashboard for the CORSAIR XENEON EDGE and keeps full support for it: full screen when the Edge is a Windows display, or as an iCUE widget in Widget Mode.

Yes. Spacedash is free to download and use, with 48 of its 98 built-in widgets, the layout editor, skins and the widgets you import. Premium is an optional one-time purchase of $19.99, with no subscription, that adds the other widgets, more profiles, automation, themes and more.

Yes. The installer isn't code-signed yet, so Windows SmartScreen says "Windows protected your PC" with "Unknown publisher", and some antivirus apps flag it for the same reason. Download it only from qaemdev.com, then click More info and Run anyway.

Yes. In Spacedash, open Settings → License and choose Try free for 7 days. You sign in to qaemdev.com once; no card is needed and nothing renews. Each PC and each account gets one trial. After 7 days Spacedash goes back to Free and keeps your layouts, or you can keep Premium for $19.99 once.

No, only for Widget Mode on the XENEON EDGE. On your monitors, and on the Edge when it's a normal Windows display, Spacedash runs on its own. In Widget Mode it runs as a widget inside iCUE, next to your other widgets, and Spacedash follows the mode you choose in iCUE.

It adds Premium widgets for Remote PC, GameShelf, Home Assistant, Wave Link, GitHub, Broadlink, Notion, Obsidian, Slack, Stripe and Kick, and the Dynamic Island, a pill at the top of your screens for media, calls, timers and alerts.

Yes, for free. A Spacedash widget is a folder with a widget.json and an index.html, written in plain HTML, CSS and JavaScript, and it gets the same options, looks and text sizes as the built-in widgets. With Premium, iCUE widgets (.icuewidget files), such as those from the Elgato Marketplace, run in Spacedash too.

Yes, with Premium. Spacedash shows up as a device in the Elgato Stream Deck app, and its Virtual Stream Deck widget puts those keys on your dashboard, on a monitor or the XENEON EDGE, where you click or tap them.

Yes. Spacedash runs on normal monitors too, each with its own layout, either on the desktop behind your apps or on top of every window. Free shows Spacedash on one screen at a time; Premium runs it on the Edge and all your monitors at once.

Spacedash can pause or stop by itself while a game is full screen, while apps you choose are running, or when your CPU or GPU is busy, and it carries on when you're done. These Performance settings are free.
