Waki Grid / FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

Which permissions does Waki Grid need?

Accessibility, so it can move and resize other apps’ windows, and Automation for System Events when you use the appearance switch. Each is asked for the first time you turn the feature on, with a card that names the exact System Settings pane and says what still works without it.

Can I use it with several displays?

Yes. Each connected display can have its own layout, or follow the selected one. The zone palette and edge snapping work on whichever display the window is on.

Does it fight with Rectangle, Magnet or macOS tiling?

Waki Grid only acts on the gestures and shortcuts you enable. Turn off a method you do not use and it registers nothing for it. Running it beside another window manager is possible but pointless; pick one.

What happens to windows when I unplug a display?

macOS moves them to the remaining display. Arrange All puts every app with a rule back into your layout in one keystroke.

Does it run in the menu bar?

Yes. Waki Grid is a menu bar app first; the window is for setup. Choose menu bar, Dock or both, keep it running when the window closes, and open at login.

Which platforms?

macOS 14 or newer on Apple silicon today.

Which computers are supported?

The current desktop apps require macOS 14 or newer on Apple silicon.

Can I buy or download it now?

Public purchases and downloads are coming soon. Private development releases are not public installers.

How will the license work?

The launch plan is a one-time purchase with a 14-day trial, a year of updates, two Macs per license and a 14-day refund window.
