About:
Better Window Manager is a utility for macOS that allows users to save and restore the precise positions and sizes of application windows. It helps maintain a consistent desktop layout by quickly reorganizing windows into predefined arrangements. This tool is particularly useful for users who work with multiple monitors or frequently switch between different workspace configurations.
Key Features:
  • Save and restore window layouts
  • Support for multiple monitor configurations
  • Hotkey-based window management
  • Automatic window arrangement rules
Use Cases:
  • Restoring a complex multi-app workspace after reboot
  • Quickly arranging windows for development or presentation workflows
Alternatives:
  • Rectangle – Focuses on tiling window management rather than state saving
  • Magnet – Provides snap-to-edge functionality but lacks persistent state restoration
