Tutorial Description

With the upcoming Window Management improvements coming with macOS Sequoia this fall, Lee has been reviewing his third-party applications to see if they are still needed. Going through my list, he realised that one of the best, BetterSnapTool, had not yet been covered on ScreenCastsONLINE!

Join Lee for an overview of this wonderful utility, that not only allows you to resize windows using keyboard shortcuts with ease, but also brings an extensive feature set, including customising the top-left "traffic light" buttons present on all macOS windows, and much more.


BetterSnapTool requires macOS 10.12 or newer, and cost $2.99 on the App Store.
