AROW

AROW is a super handy and lightweight app that helps you manage your windows on a Mac way better than what OS X usually offers. It makes arranging, resizing, and organizing your windows super easy.

Manage Your Windows Easily

With AROW, you can quickly take control of your windows using keyboard shortcuts or just by dragging them to the edges of the screen. Plus, you can tweak how OS X’s window buttons behave. It’s all about making life easier!

Getting Started with AROW

Before diving in, you'll need to give AROW permission to control your Mac. Just go to System Preferences, click on Security and Privacy, then find Accessibility in the Privacy tab. Unlock the settings and check off AROW. Easy peasy!

Drag and Snap Windows

If you want to quickly manage your windows, just drag them to the edges of your screen! When your cursor hits the edge, it’ll automatically resize to fill half of the screen. It's super cool!

Custom Snap Window Feature

The Custom Snap Window feature is another neat trick AROW offers. You can find it in the app's menu bar. It gives you a customizable grid that helps with moving and resizing windows accurately.

A Note on Usability

This grid feature works well for window management; however, having an extra window in the center might feel a bit odd since it can't be moved around.

Change OS X’s Window Button Actions

The last cool feature lets you change what happens when you click OS X’s window buttons. This is actually our favorite part because it only takes a right or left-click for actions to happen! You can customize how everything looks too.

Create Custom Shortcuts

You can set up custom keyboard shortcuts that make managing your windows even faster! And don’t forget—you can adjust how wide those recognition areas are for even more flexibility.

The Bottom Line

If you're someone who juggles multiple open windows every day, AROW is definitely worth downloading. It's designed to enhance OS X's window management features and speed up your daily tasks significantly.
