What is Snapback?

Snapback is a free macOS utility that saves and restores your entire workspace with a single keyboard shortcut. Every open app, every window position, every display captured and restored instantly. Switch between dev mode, design mode, and meeting mode in seconds.

Unlike other window managers that only move and resize windows, Snapback remembers your full layout. It can reopen closed apps, handle monitor disconnections gracefully, and persist workspaces across restarts.

Core features include window snapping (halves, thirds, quarters), drag-to-snap (hold ? and drag to any edge or corner), predefined layout presets, unlimited named workspaces, and multi-display support for up to 6 screens. Lives in your menu bar. Keyboard-first with fully customizable shortcuts.

Requires macOS 14.2+. Apple Silicon native. No account required. Free forever.
