ZincWolf Tiles

Every window, in its place.

Press a keyboard shortcut or drag a window to the edge of the screen, and it glides into a half, a third or a corner. Nothing moves until you say so.

Or just drag it there.

Drag a window to an edge or a corner of the screen, and a glass preview shows where it will go, with the place’s name. Let go, and it glides into place.

Drag to an edge.

By its title bar, to any edge or corner. Each one can be any snap you like, for landscape and portrait screens.

Or from anywhere.

Hold ⌃⌥ and drag anywhere in a window to move it, or drag with the right button to resize it from the nearest corner.

Calm moves

It glides. It never jumps.

Windows move on the same calm spring as everything in ZincWolf apps: quick, smooth and never bouncy. Would you rather they jumped? That’s one switch.

And more

Made for how you work.

A strip for the app you keep open, a grid for any size, your whole desk back in one shortcut, and room for your Dock.

Todo mode.

Keep one app, such as Notes or Reminders, in a strip at the side of the screen, and every other window snaps in the rest. ⌃⌥B turns it on and off.

Any size, on a grid.

Press ⌃⌥Space, and a glass grid opens over the screen. Drag across it to pick any size and place, or use the arrow keys.

Your desk, in one go.

Save where every window is, with a name and a shortcut, and bring them all back at once. Plug in a display, and its layout comes back by itself.

Room for your Dock.

Snapped windows stop short of ZincWolf Dock, wherever it sits, with nothing to set. With Stage Manager on, they leave room for its strip too.

Privacy

Nothing moves by itself.

Questions? Answers.

  • A window manager for the Mac. It snaps windows to halves, thirds, fourths, sixths and corners with keyboard shortcuts, or with a drag to an edge of the screen, so two or three apps sit side by side, like a split screen. Windows glide into place, and nothing moves until you ask.

  • Yes, it’s available now: $19.99, once. Buy it here and download it straight away; your license key comes on screen and by email. Already bought it? Download ZincWolf Tiles from this page any time.

  • $19.99, once, the same as ZincWolf Dock, ZincWolf Island and ZincWolf Widgets. Every 1.x update is free, there’s no subscription and no account, and a license is for one Mac. It’s sold directly from zincwolf.app, with a full refund within 14 days if it isn’t for you.

  • Windows glide into place instead of jumping, a glass preview names each place as you drag, and you can move and resize a window from anywhere in it. The size picker puts any size a shortcut away, Layouts bring your whole desk back in one go, and snapped windows leave room for ZincWolf Dock.

  • 42 in all. Halves: Left half, Right half, Centre half, Top half and Bottom half. Corners: Top left, Top right, Bottom left and Bottom right. Thirds: First third, Centre third, Last third, First two-thirds, Centre two-thirds and Last two-thirds. Fourths: First fourth, Second fourth, Third fourth, Last fourth, First three-fourths, Centre three-fourths and Last three-fourths. Sixths: Top left sixth, Top centre sixth, Top right sixth, Bottom left sixth, Bottom centre sixth and Bottom right sixth. Size: Maximise, Almost maximise, Maximise height, Maximise width, Make larger and Make smaller. Place: Centre, Restore, Move left, Move right, Move up, Move down, Next display and Previous display.

  • With Cycle sizes, the setting it starts with, pressing Left half again makes the window two-thirds of the screen wide, then a third, and every half and corner cycles the same way. In Settings › General you can have a window go on to your next display at the screen’s edge instead, do both, or have nothing happen.

  • Drag a window by its title bar to an edge or a corner of the screen: a glass preview shows where it will go, with the place’s name, and it goes there when you let go. Each of the eight edges and corners can be set to any snap, separately for landscape and portrait screens. Drag a snapped window away and it gets its old size back, and holding a key you choose while you drag skips snapping.

  • macOS Sequoia and later tile a window dragged to an edge too, and two at once get in each other’s way. So ZincWolf Tiles asks whether it may take macOS’s edge tiling over while its snap areas are on, and puts your own settings back, exactly as they were, when you quit it or turn snap areas off.

  • Yes. With Move and resize from anywhere, in Settings › General, hold ⌃⌥, or other keys you choose, and drag anywhere in a window to move it, or drag with the right button to resize it from the nearest corner while the opposite one stays put. Snap areas and the glass preview work as you move it.

  • One app’s window, such as Notes or Reminders, stays in a strip at the left or right of its screen, and every other snap on that screen uses the rest. Once you’ve chosen the app, ⌃⌥B turns Todo mode on and off, and ⌃⌥N fits the other windows around it.

  • Press ⌃⌥Space and a glass grid, six columns by four, opens over the front window’s screen. Drag across its cells, or move with the arrow keys and hold Shift to resize, to pick any size and place, and let go. A pick that matches a snap, such as three columns for a half, lands exactly where that snap would. Settings › Shortcuts has other grids, from four by three to twelve by eight.

  • Save where every window on a screen is, with a name and a shortcut if you like, and bring them all back in one go. Windows are found again by their app; an app that isn’t open is skipped, never opened for you. A layout can come back by itself when its display is plugged in, and on a screen of another size each window keeps its share of it.

  • Yes, with nothing to set up. Snapped windows stop short of ZincWolf Dock’s bar, at the bottom, left or right of the screen, and take the whole screen while it hides itself. With Stage Manager on, they leave room for its strip of recent apps.

  • Yes. ⌃⌥⌘→ and ⌃⌥⌘← send a window to your next or previous display, and pressing a snap again at a screen’s edge can carry a window on to the next one. Portrait screens have snap areas of their own.

  • Only Accessibility, which macOS asks you to allow before any app can move and size other apps’ windows; the welcome takes you to the right switch in System Settings. It needs no Input Monitoring or Screen Recording: moving from anywhere sees only mouse clicks and drags, never what you type.

  • No. It’s a native Mac app that does next to nothing between your shortcuts and drags, and a move takes a fraction of a second. For an app that’s slow to keep up, it moves the window in fewer steps, so nothing stutters.

  • Your windows stay where they are, and if ZincWolf Tiles took macOS’s edge tiling over, your own settings come back as they were.

  • No. It moves your windows on your Mac and keeps no history of what you do; your settings and layouts stay on your Mac. It only goes online to check your license and look for updates.

  • Any Mac with macOS 14 Sonoma or later, with Apple silicon or Intel. On macOS 26 Tahoe its preview and panels are made of Liquid Glass; on Sonoma and Sequoia they’re frosted.

  • Some of what it does, like taking macOS’s own edge tiling over and putting it back, isn’t allowed in the Mac App Store, so ZincWolf sells it directly, as it does all its apps.

A tidy Mac, a shortcut away.

Every window in its place, with a few easy shortcuts. Available now, for $19.99 once.
