What do you think about Lasso - Window Manager for macOS?
I saw Lasso come up on Product Hunt and wanted to test it straight away, as I have used various window managers in the past, but none quite hit the sweet spot for me. I was instantly impressed, not only by the functionality of the app, but also by the care and attention to detail in the UI. After using the app daily during the 1-week free trial, I realised that I could use Lasso as my go-to for managing windows, and could delete all other window manager apps I previously used. I have customised the keyboard shortcut to invoke Lasso, so that within seconds I can very quickly place any open windows exactly where I want, on either of my screens. There are built-in links to tutorials (which I haven’t personally tried, but I’m sure they will be helpful). All-in-all, a fantastic little tool to add to the toolbox. Purchasing a license to support the developer was a no-brainer, as he was very responsive when I asked questions.
I really like that it lets me manage windows with minimal keyboard inputs.
I use another app to map the middle click on my mouse to trigger the key combination for Lasso. That makes the entire setup keyboard-less and I love this workflow!
One nice feature would be to be able to switch between overlapping windows (ie those that are on top of each other in the same grids). e.g. You hover over a window, press a keyboard combination, and then use the scroll wheel to bring overlapping windows into focus one by one.
I have been using Lasso for several months and have to say I am a delighted customer. It works perfectly and is predictable. I can recommend it to anybody who prefers to have a clean screen, perfect shapes or has an OCD...😂
Use this many times a day. Super stable and has made window management considerable more enjoyable, never mind useable especially across multiple 4k monitors.
Just like Pasty, these guys have thought it through and done their homework. This tool has all the features of the competition and then some. Moving the tools that we use forward into the future. Worth more than they ask!
Lightning fast, intuitive UI, easy to use. It does exactly what you expect it to, and does it well. This couldn't get better! I find myself using the same two-app layout for the same apps, I wish I could do it in one step instead of having to repeat the operation after focusing each window, but this is already lightyears better than having to position the windows manually!
I wish I could set the "Distance between windows" to match the margins the system uses for the system Picture in Picture playback. Would take away from the guesswork 😅
Started the App using from trial and realized within 2 days that this app is helpful as most of the time I am switching between multiple screen sizes and having the option to align the app window as per my like is a better option with the one-time purchase this app deserves to be in most recommended app list.
I can assign diff grid styles in different sizes of screens which is a +1 feature. I hope they bring more awesome features soon.
