Atlas 1.0.8 Overview

Atlas is a native macOS utility built by independent studio Theodore HQ, designed to solve one specific problem: figuring out a meeting time that actually works across multiple time zones. Instead of mentally converting hours or bookmarking a timezone-conversion website, Atlas puts every teammate, project collaborator, or family member on a single living world map, shown in their current local time the moment the app opens. What sets Atlas apart from a typical world-clock widget is that it does not just display the time in different cities — it actively scores upcoming time slots against everyone's working hours, flags daylight-saving shifts, and hands you a ranked shortlist of the best overlaps. Once a time is chosen, Atlas writes the event straight into Apple Calendar, Google Calendar, Outlook, or a universal .ics file, with each person's local time already spelled out. Atlas 1.0.8 is a maintenance-focused update to the app's Help menu, released as part of Theodore HQ's steady, small-batch release cadence. It runs as a Universal Binary, meaning it is fully native on both Apple Silicon and Intel-based Macs, and it operates entirely on-device with no account or server dependency, making it a genuinely private scheduling tool for remote teams, cross-border projects, and international families.

Key Features

Living World Map Every person you add appears as a pin on an interactive map, automatically labeled with their local time and updated the moment Atlas is opened. The map uses a daylight band so you can see who is awake at a glance rather than reading raw numbers. Smart Meeting Time Finder Atlas scores every fifteen-minute slot across the next several working days, weighing each person's working hours, and floats the top three overlapping options to the top instead of making you scan a full week manually. Custom Contact Groups Contacts can be organized into groups such as Work, Projects, or Family, and each group is switchable instantly using keyboard shortcuts, so you are never scrolling through one long unsorted list. Calendar-Aware Scheduling When calendar access is granted, Atlas reads your existing events (read-only) to hide times you are already booked and to flag conflicts before you commit to a slot, keeping the suggested times realistic. Regional Weekend and DST Awareness The app understands that not every region follows a Monday-to-Friday work week — for example, Friday–Saturday weekends common in the Gulf — and it flags any suggested slot that crosses a daylight-saving transition or the international date line. One-Tap Calendar Export Once a time is confirmed, Atlas adds it directly to Apple Calendar or hands off to Google Calendar, Outlook, Yahoo Calendar, or a universal .ics file, writing each attendee's local time into the event notes automatically. Quick Check Mode A lightweight scratch-pad mode, triggered with a keyboard shortcut, lets you drop in a handful of cities for a one-off comparison without saving anything to your permanent contact list. Menu Bar Companion Atlas lives in the Mac menu bar as well as its main window, giving a quick glance at who is awake across your groups without needing to open the full app. Contacts Integration The app can pull an existing contact's email directly from the macOS Contacts app as you type a name, speeding up the process of adding a new person to a group. Privacy-First Architecture Atlas does not use accounts, cloud sync, or telemetry. Your team list, groups, and settings remain stored locally on your Mac, with only minimal, necessary lookups (such as a one-time location check for your own time zone) leaving the device.

How to Use Atlas 1.0.8

Launch Atlas from Applications or Spotlight search. Complete the brief first-run setup, which detects your city and time zone automatically. Use the city or contact search field to add teammates, project collaborators, or family members to your map. Organize new contacts into groups (for example, Work, Projects, or Family) and switch between groups using their assigned keyboard shortcut. Review the ranked list of suggested meeting times, or manually scrub along the map's working-hours band to pick a different slot. If desired, grant read-only calendar access in Settings so Atlas can steer around times you are already booked. Once you've settled on a time, use the one-tap Add to Calendar option to send the event to Apple Calendar, Google, Outlook, or an .ics file.
