Landing page captured for the 2026-10-12 issue.
For
Mac users who switch between Light and Dark mode
Worth noticing
Three cords are included free; six more are described as a forthcoming one-time-purchase collection.

Field notes

The page lays out a three-step flow: click the menu-bar lamp, pull until the switch clicks, then customize cords, colors and tuck-away behavior in the app. It lists three free designs and six more for a planned one-time-purchase collection, and says the beta needs macOS 14 or later. The site also explains the extra security approval required because the beta is not yet notarized.
