User Reviews

Users praise Magic Window for calming visuals, relaxing audio, and a broad HD scene library at good value. Repeated negatives center on weather data failures due to Dark Sky changes and lack of updates for new devices, plus UX issues like hard-to-find exit options and snooze/stop button proximity. Some buyers feel misled about weather and content retention, while others note image quality not scaled for newer displays. Overall, fans remain but maintenance and weather integration are major pain points.

Pros

Beautiful, calming scenery and audio that many users find relaxing and conducive to sleep or focus.
Wide variety of scenes and packages with HD quality and reasonable pricing.
Good compatibility with older iPads and reliable performance on Macs, plus features like external monitor support.
Support has been responsive in some cases and helped users get the app working again.
Long-standing, trusted tool for years, used as a screen saver and relaxation aid.

Cons

Weather features are broken or unavailable due to Dark Sky deprecation and lack of updates.
The app hasn’t been updated to support newer iPhones/iPads and screen sizes.
Alarm and scene navigation UI can be confusing or hard to use, with snooze/turn-off proximity and no easy way to close a scene.
Purchase-related frustrations include expectations of weather data and difficulty retaining purchased content.
Some images are low-resolution and not scaled to modern displays, with requests for higher-resolution versions.

Recent reviews

After paying for the full suite of scenes and photos, the app no longer works. No support is available.

Although this app hasn’t been updated in a long while it still works and is excellent. I downloaded the whole lot of videos and found most them to be pleasant and relaxing enough to watch for a lengthy period of time.

Love the app but the developer hasn’t updated it in 6 years. Weather feature doesn’t work, images are low-res and the app is not formatted to fill the screen sizes of Apple device newer than the iPhone 8.
