VEEER Reviews

The 6 Best Mac Window Management Tools
However, Veer has limited window management options compared to other apps. You can only snap windows in 12 different variations with the provided shortcuts. Moreover, the options in the macOS menu bar only show the shortcuts greyed out, and you can't select them either. You can only access them by pressing the key combination, which is Control + Command, by default.

  • Switch from Windows
    Moving windows between screens, is there an app or shortcut that I am missing that allows for this? I never knew I used this feature this much on Windows. I already checked out VEEER(https://veeer.io) but it cannot move between monitors. Source: 10 months ago
  • [Serious] I don't get why people like Mac and I feel like I'm missing out
    If you find the native window management lackluster (like I do), you can install a window manager like Amethyst, or yabai, veeer, or many others. Source: 11 months ago

LayAuto mentions (1)

  • Recommedation on monitor
    Also, I'm using LayAuto software for window placement on a large display (split display in various sized grids - let me know if you want me to share my defaults). This is absolutely invaluable, as otherwise you spend most of your time arranging windows. Another one I've used and likes is Magnet, but it didn't allow me to customise the split and the keyboard shortcuts. Source: over 2 years ago
