I built Fader because I couldn’t find it anywhere. Every time I switched apps on my Mac, the clutter of background windows drove me crazy. HazeOver dims them — but I wanted them actually gone. So I built it myself over the course of a year. Fader automatically minimizes every window you’re not using and restores them instantly when you switch back. Clean desktop, zero effort. Hope it helps someone else who felt the same frustration I did.

@thorlindsson Hi. Auto-minimizes windows when I switch apps, does it get annoying or actually useful?😅
@julia_zakharova2 Hey Julia! I find it to be very useful when i’m focusing on working in specific apps! You can always pause the app in the menu. Hope this helps 😀

I hate having multiple windows in the same desktop. Any option to make it 1 Window = 1 Desktop instead of minimazing?
Congrats on your Alpha Launch

@bengeekly Thank you for the feedback and for testing it out! There is an option in settings to turn on per display minimization 😀

Pretty nice. I have like 20+ windows open all the time. This'll probably help me focus.

This is really nice! I hate when windows stack up like that, will definitely give it a try
