[MAC] $0: Magnet (Organize Your Workspace) (Was $0.99) @ iTunes

1450

Excellent ratings 4.9 out of 5.

Every time you move a content from one app to the other, compare data side by side or multitask in any other way, you need all the windows arranged accordingly. Magnet makes this process clean and simple.

In one drag to the edge, you size a window into half of your screen. And by dragging windows to the corners, you snap them into quarters. Slide them to the bottom edge of your display to create thirds. Do the same on your ultra-wide monitor and arrange windows into sixths. Taking advantage of such arrangements eliminates app switching and greatly enhances workspace efficiency.

Magnet supports keyboard shortcuts as well, for every command it has to offer. There is that little icon sitting in the Menu Bar where you can find a predefined set or create yours.

FEATURES:

・Left/Right/Top/Bottom Halves of the screen supported
・Left/Center/Right Thirds of the screen supported
・Left Two Thirds & Right Two Thirds of the screen supported
・Any Sixth-combination supported on ultra-wide screens
・Fullscreen & all four Quarters of the screen supported
・Activated by dragging (optional)
・Activated by keyboard shortcuts (customizable)
・Operated via Menu Bar icon
・Runs both on Retina and regular displays
・Up to six external displays supported
・Vertical screens supported
・Built to run on all macOS versions since 10.9 Mavericks
・macOS 10.13 High Sierra optimized

    One of my favourite apps. As a prominently Windows user, this app helps productivity flow with snapping and sizing applications. Would recommend that everyone jumps onto this pronto!

    Agree. Great app. Thanks for posting.

    Just bought it a couple of days ago for $1.49 :(
    good app, must have for all mac users.

    • The free version is limited, you need to pay $4.49 for the pro version. So you bought $1.49, that’s a bargain!

  • +4

    paid for this and would still pay for it

    Offers in-app purchases. So what is Magnet Pro for $4.49? It says it lets you use an unlimited number of gestures and keyboard shortcuts. Will this free version stop working after a while?

  • Essential app.

    (Profanity) (Profanity) (Profanity) (Profanity) (Profanity) (Profanity) I paid 4.99USD for this

    • did you forget cashrewards as well?

        Oh (Profanity) could this day get any worse .. aaargh .. btw gr8 find OP

  • Thanks OP - can't believe I've never heard of this one, very handy.

  • I'm confused, what's the deal exactly? Was it .99 cents previously and also with IAP of $4.49? Or was it previously .99cents with no IAP.

    This version has a $4.49 IAP to go Pro?

    • +2

      i guess, previously, it was a paid pro version with no IAP.
      It just changed to a free app with IAP.
      If you bought the Pro version before and after update, it will stay as Pro version (at least for me).

  • Anyone using this with dual monitors?

    • yes. works a treat.

  • +4

    Thanks, I've been using spectacle (free app) for a while and this seems to offer the same functions but includes mouse support which is great when I forget the keyboard shortcuts.

    • +2

      Spectacle is very good too, I have been using it for a year and serves my needs.

  • +1

    One of my favourite utilities

  • This app is essential. Windows snap is cool but this has more flexibility, and with the edge snapping introduced in Sierra it's really easy to organise windows.

  • +1

    No-brainer. Should be baked into the OS it's so good.

  • I have Cinch which does something similar but only left and right side of the screen. I was just searching for apps that does EXACTLY THIS about 5 mins ago!….Thanks OP. BEST TIMING EVER!

  • Great app. But was surprised to find Magnet Pro as an add on for $4.49… doesnt do much though - lets you use unlimited gestures and keyboard shortcuts.

  • +1

    One of those app I once bought for $1.49, but never used as Spectacle is small, free and just enough. And I'm already used to it.

  • Price is back to $1.49
