Forget complex shortcuts. WindowSmith brings a visual snap grid to every window. Drag, hover or click — and instantly organize your workspace.
Native performance, zero bloat, and the features you actually need to manage a 4K workspace.
Click the menu bar icon, or rest on any window's green button, and pick your layout visually — nothing to memorise. Perfect for ultrawide monitors and complex grids.
Drag a window and a translucent preview shows exactly where it will land. Let go and it snaps. Hold Command to place a window freely instead.
Use global hotkeys to trigger layouts, then cycle through positions instantly. "Throw" windows between displays with a single keystroke.
Build your own grids up to 5×5, and group cells together into larger zones. Save them as presets and access them via the menu or shortcuts.
WindowSmith arranges other apps’ windows, so macOS asks your permission first. This is the whole setup.
Open the download and drag WindowSmith into your Applications folder. Launch it and its icon appears in the menu bar — there is no Dock icon and no window.
Click Grant Access, then switch WindowSmith on under Privacy & Security › Accessibility. The app unlocks itself the moment you do — no restart, no relaunch.
Pick a layout from the menu bar, or stay on the keyboard: ⌃⌥1–4 for your saved layouts and ⌃⌥←→ to throw a window to the next display.
New versions install themselves — WindowSmith checks for updates and asks before installing one.
Every Mac app sets its own minimum window size, and nothing can override it — not WindowSmith, not macOS’s own tiling. A window that refuses to shrink still snaps to the right place, it just keeps more room than the zone allows. You’ll notice it most on smaller displays, where a dense layout leaves each zone narrow; choosing a layout with fewer zones sorts it out. Read more →
