Too many windows to manage? Large display? Or getting lost in multiple monitors? HazeOver is for you! ▶ TRIAL version: HazeOver.com Turn distractions down and focus on your current task. HazeOver automatically highlights the front window by dimming background windows. • Help yourself focus on one thing at a time. Automagically. • Spend less time managing windows. The clutter won’t bother you anymore. No need to minimize, close, or hide windows to keep your workspace neat and tidy. • Easily see which window has keyboard focus. No more typing in the wrong window due to low contrast. • Got a bigger display? Then going full screen might make less sense. HazeOver helps you avoid feeling overwhelmed by too many windows. • Multiple monitors? This app shows which screen is focused, or highlights a window on each monitor. • Power up macOS Dark Mode and reduce background glare. • Working at night? Lower interface brightness without sacrificing the legibility or color accuracy of the front window. Heavy multitasking kills your concentration. Web pages, emails, chat messages, and lolcats stare at you from the background — all fighting for your attention. And you only have so much of it. Don’t drown in scores of open windows. Hiding, switching, looking for the right one, more hiding, more switching. Calm down, breathe in, breathe out, launch HazeOver — and finally concentrate on what matters. HazeOver automatically highlights the active window or app as you switch. Less important things gently fade into the background, helping you stay focused and productive. Customize dimming intensity and animation speed to your preference — whether it’s a soft shade to guide your attention or a bold dark background for total immersion. • The desktop is automatically revealed when used. • Toggle shading with a keyboard shortcut or adjust intensity with a gesture. • Use separate dimming settings for Dark and Light appearance. • Dragging between apps? Tap the “fn” key, and HazeOver will gracefully fade out. • Control or schedule HazeOver with the Shortcuts app, Focus Filters, and AppleScript. Does HazeOver really help?
