Rectangle is here to make your window management on macOS way easier! Even though Apple has some built-in tools, sometimes it can feel a bit clunky. If you're all about getting things done quickly, you’ll love using keyboard shortcuts. Plus, bringing in a cool feature from Windows just makes sense!
This app really steps up the game for managing your windows. You can move and resize them using some customizable hotkeys—just like you would on a Windows machine! Think of it as having that handy snap assist feature right on your Mac.
The setup is super simple. With the right key combinations, you can shift windows to one half of the screen, tuck them into a corner, or even resize them however you want. And guess what? You can customize these shortcuts to what works best for you. So if you're ever stuck or need a reminder, just click the Rectangle icon in your menu bar to pull up all your hotkeys!
You might have seen something similar on Windows since version 7, and it's just too handy not to have on macOS! When you drag a window near the edge of your screen, it’ll snap into place automatically.
You can easily send a window to fill one half of the screen or maximize it by dragging it around. At first, figuring out where everything snaps might take some time, but there’s a helpful guide available that walks you through it step-by-step.
If you ever unsnap a window, don’t worry! It goes back to its original size. There’s also an easy hotkey (⌃⌥⌘ by default) to bring it back if needed.
Once you give Rectangle a try, you'll wonder how you ever managed without it! Managing windows becomes so much simpler after you've played around with those snap areas.
Rectangle is based on Spectacle, which isn’t being updated anymore. This makes Rectangle the better choice since other options usually come with limitations or cost money. Plus, it's open-source!
