First launch: macOS will ask you to approve Panevisa once.

How to open it

Panevisa is ad hoc signed, not notarized by Apple, so macOS needs a one time approval.

  1. Open Panevisa once. macOS will say it cannot verify the app. Close that message.
  2. Open System Settings and choose Privacy & Security.
  3. Scroll down to the Security section and click Open Anyway next to Panevisa.
  4. Confirm with your password or Touch ID, then click Open.

Permissions

  • Accessibility, required. Turn on Panevisa under Privacy & Security, then Accessibility, so it can move and resize your windows.
  • Screen Recording, optional. Gives smoother animations and live window previews in Overview. Without it, Panevisa still tiles everything and Overview shows app icons instead.
First launch step asking to turn on Accessibility and Screen Recording for Panevisa.

01Features

Everything you need to keep windows in order

Overview showing every open window as a snapshot in a grid, with one selected.
Overview
A tab strip with an active tab and a tab being dragged out into its own window.
Tab groups
Command palette listing actions, arrangements, workspaces and windows that match a search.

Five keyboard shortcuts with diagrams: focus, swap, next layout, grow main and float.
Rebindable shortcuts

  • Six layouts

    Tile windows into columns, rows, grids, a main pane with a stack, and more. Switch with one keystroke, or cycle layouts with one click from the menu bar.

  • Per monitor layouts

    Each display keeps its own layout, so your laptop and your big screen can work differently.

  • Saved arrangements and history

    Save an arrangement and bring it back later. Step back through recent layouts when you change your mind.

  • Workspaces

    Group windows by task and jump between workspaces without losing your place.

  • App placement rules

    Tell Panevisa where an app belongs and it lands there every time it opens.

  • Command palette

    Type to find any action, layout, or window. No menus to dig through.

  • Overview

    See every window at once and pick the one you want.

  • Tab groups

    Stack related windows into one tile and flip between them like tabs.

  • Rebindable shortcuts

    Every action can have two bindings, using keyboard keys or mouse buttons, including middle and side buttons. Change any of them whenever you like.

  • Pause

    Turn tiling off for a moment when you need a window to float freely, then pick up where you left off.

  • Shortcuts app actions

    Drive Panevisa from the Shortcuts app and build it into your own automations.

  • URL commands

    Trigger layouts and actions from scripts, launchers, or links with simple URL commands.
