It has great defaults for immediately whooshing windows to halves, thirds, or quarters of the screen. Spectacle (free, donation requested) is pretty similar to SizeUp. You can use it in conjunction with a keyboard-shortcut-based window manager together, although you may end up preferring one or the other. Things to know: They say it works best with single-monitor setups. When you drag the screen against an edge, it will snap to cover that side of the screen. Rather than keyboard commands for resizing windows, it works by having hot zones along the edges of the screen. If you’re more into menu controls, that’s nicely designed with good defaults as well: CinchĬinch ($6.99) is by the same company as SizeUp (Irradiated Software). For me, 95% of my use of these tools is “YOU! Left Side! You! Right Side!”, so the very simple default built-in commands for this are great. SizeUp ($12.99) calls itself “The missing window manager”. So let’s look at the options! Fair warning: this page has a bunch of super-huge GIF files on it, as I thought that would be a useful way to show off these apps features.
OS X El Capitan (10.11) brought some split screen stuff, but it has quite a few limitations and certainly isn’t fulfilling all the needs of the discerning nerd. Most Windows (the operating system) users I know quite like the built-in abilities it has to position windows, but there isn’t as much of that built into OS X.
Therefore, I’m re-writing this review to reflect my sincere disappointment in him for not including this simple, widely-needed function in his most recent update, and for pressuring me to buy more unnecessary software on the HOPE that MAYBE he’ll consider adding this function someday, when the mood finally strikes.There is no shortage of apps to help you arrange windows.

It makes perfect sense to include this in an update, but when I asked Andreas, the developer if he would make this a priority in his next software update, he cheerfully told me that he would think on it, and MAYBE I’ll see the function in another update - IF I purchase his more expensive bundled software package, BetterTouchTool (which I don’t want or need).
I really don’t know what the point is for having an app for arranging windows / window sizes when maximizing all windows and menu screens to see their content ISN’T even an option. I just want an app that will automatically maximize every single window (AND app like Notes, iTunes, Mail, or MS Word) that I open, automatically, end of story….

Regardless of the screen size, I’m sick and tired of needing to resize to maximize windows (to their respective largest size) JUST to see their full content (and more importantly- their function button, which is often completely hidden, UNLESS you resize and maximize the window to its largest size).

I also have a 30" Mac Pro desktop screen. I work mainly on a small MacBook Air laptop that has a teeny-tiny 11” screen. This app will do lots of things BUT that. I need to automatically maximize all windows, so that I don’t have to. I purchased this app hoping that I could do one thing and one thing only: to maximize all windows and menu windows.
