Spencer for Mac
Hi Product Hunt! 👋
Meet Spencer — a macOS app that brings true sanity to your desktop setup. It lets you save and restore your entire window layout — across Spaces, Displays, and even multiple app windows — with just one click.
The idea came from a simple need: I wanted my windows to go back where they were after restarting or changing display setups. That need grew into something way more powerful.
✨ Core Features
→ Restore full layouts across multiple Spaces & Displays
→ Launch saved apps and hide everything else
→ Remember the number of Spaces and rebuild them
→ Handle multiple windows per app
→ Create reusable profiles for different workflows — coding, meetings, design, or even “chill mode”
What I personally love?
Switching between tasks used to mean launching, closing, hiding, and resizing windows every time. Now it takes me one click — seriously a game changer during my development process when jumping between coding, design, promotion, and web stuff
Current Limitations
* Restore takes a few seconds (macOS doesn’t allow instant positioning without disabling SIP)
* Not yet compatible with Stage Manager — support is coming
* Plays nicely with Moom, Rectangle, and Magnet — but not yet with Aerospace, Amethyst, or Yabai
* Fullscreen support is limited — windows will simulate fullscreen (Dock/Menu bar stays visible)

Love these kinds of solution. My mac recently got damaged and I was on my ubuntu system. So I faced this issue. Maybe, you guys can bring a feature like that so it can work on any desktop OS? Congrats on the launch though @kamil_d

@lakshya_singh There’s still a lot to do in the Mac version, but who knows — maybe someday. Thank you so much!

Spencer for Mac has really improved my workflow! I love how I can set up different profiles for specific tasks—like one for video editing, another for research, and a simple one just for browsing. Switching between them is seamless, and it saves so much time setting windows up every session. If you juggle multiple projects or just like having a tidy desktop, this tool makes things way more efficient. Highly recommended for freelancers or anyone who works with lots of apps at once!

Thank you! To be honest, I’ve also been using layout switching a lot — especially now, during Spencer’s development, when I need to juggle so many different tasks like coding, web design, UI work, and promotion.
I’m really glad to hear it’s helping you too and that you’re enjoying it!
