About Mosaic
Mosaic resizes and repositions windows on a Mac through drag and drop. When you drag a window, a panel appears showing layouts, and dropping the window on one applies it. Layouts can be basic or advanced, with gutters, groups, quick positions and auto layout.
Power users can use keyboard shortcuts and the Touch Bar, and there is a companion Remote app. It is compatible with macOS 26 Tahoe and requires macOS 10.13 or later.
