Split Screen

Split Screen is a cool little utility for macOS that makes working on your computer a lot easier. It gives you an alternative way to manage your windows and helps boost your productivity. And guess what? It even works on older versions of macOS, so you don’t have to worry if you’re not running the latest update!

Getting Started with Split Screen

Before you dive into using the Split Screen, there’s one important step: you need to allow it to control your Mac. It’s super simple! Just open up your System Preferences, go to the Security & Privacy panel, and find the Accessibility tab. From there, just check the box next to the Split Screen app.

Managing Your Windows Easily

Now that you've set everything up, let’s get into how to use it! Pick one of the windows on your screen and decide if you want it full screen or if you'd like to shrink it down to the left or right side. You can do this through the Split Screen menu in your status bar or by using some handy keyboard shortcuts.

More Than Just Window Management

But wait, there’s more! Aside from helping with window management, Split Screen also comes with a web search tool. You can type in what you're looking for, and it'll run a search in your favorite web browser.

Easier Access to Hidden Files

If you've got hidden files on your Mac that you'd like to see or hide again, Split Screen makes this super easy too! These features might seem unrelated at first glance, but they really help streamline repetitive tasks and keep things running smoothly.

Your Workspace, Your Way

This app offers a fresh way to organize all those windows so you can maximize your workspace. Plus, it comes with easy-to-remember hotkeys that you can even change up yourself. So whether you're juggling two windows or ten, Split Screen has got you covered!
