Divide and manage your desktop windows

Not satisfied with the way OS X manages your desktop Windows? Divvy takes a fresh approach to doing things differently by giving you control over how windows are divided-up.

Divvy allows you to quickly and efficiently divide-up or "divvy up" your screen into portions. The advantage of this is that it lets you make the most of your screen real estate which is particularly useful for those working on small screens such as those on Macbooks.

Divvy takes a bit of getting used to at first but when you've mastered the rather simple basics, it soon becomes a very useful tool. Divvy works by opening a small grid that which allows you to assign how much real estate you want certain windows to occupy. You drag over the squares to select the amount of space you want an application to occupy and the windows on your screen then instantly snap into place.

You can customize Divvy with global shortcuts which is the most interesting new edition. Using a recording macro, you can define exactly how you want windows to Divvy-up, record it, then define a key to use to trigger the action.

Divvy takes a while to learn but when you do, you'll find it adds a new and welcome dimension to windows management in OS X.

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.
