Great idea, something Apple should have been invented. It feels very intuitive to use, and no need to memorize all the shortcuts

@chrfyi Version 1.3 fixed the MX Master mouse scroll problem after doing a swish. Thanks for the update, works great now!

Recently switched to this from Rectangle, and the intuitiveness + UI of this app has me hooked. The app really adds to the seamless integration-ness with macOS. PROS: Stays out of sight until you need it. Has a lot of gestures to use, all of which you can turn off and keep the most relevant ones on per your workflow. Haptic feedback. Memory utilization on my M1 MacBook never exceeds 60mb. CONS: Due to the huge variety of excellent gestures, the tutorial within the app is not that thorough. It has a free 14 day trial so you should definitely check it out for yourself.

Love this app. It's less powerful than BetterTouchTool but much more accessible and easy to use. Can't live without it.

This is such an awesome app, highly recommended! Can't use my Mac without it. It worths every penny I paid for a license for it.

When I snap a window and then minimise it, unminimising it a short while later makes the window flicker. It's really annoying and I don't think I can use Swish with it. Please find a fix.

Also love this app so much. I have been using it for few weeks, and quickly give some feedback. There is a bug that cause screen flashes when two fingers swipe up to maximize the screen. Hope you solve it in the future. Thank you, good work.

Review Swish?

Reviewers largely see Swish as an intuitive, lightweight window manager that quickly becomes part of everyday Mac use, especially for trackpad-driven snapping, resizing, and organizing. Several say it feels natural, stays out of the way, and remains stable over long-term use. The main complaints are narrower but concrete: limited grid flexibility on wider or ultrawide displays, missing quarter-split layouts, occasional silent stops or crashes around newer macOS releases, and one report of serious conflicts with BetterTouchTool plus poor support response.
