All Windows Appear 1.2.8 for Mac
Mac UtilitiesAll Windows Appear 1.2.8 for Mac is a small window-management utility from IXEAU, the studio led by developer Martin Lexow, now part of App Ahead GmbH. It restores a classic macOS behaviour that many long-time users miss: when you click an app in the Dock or switch to it, all of that app's windows come to the front together instead of just the most recent one.
The idea is deliberately narrow. Rather than replacing Mission Control or adding a full tiling system, the app simply makes window layering predictable again, which helps when you work across several documents in the same program. It supports options such as autostart on login and Dark Mode, and version 1.2.8 is a legacy release from the app's earlier years, so check current macOS compatibility before relying on it.
Key Features
- Look for the developer's current IXEAU or App Ahead listing, since this older version may only be offered through the Mac App Store today.
- Install the app, launch it once, and enable autostart on login if you want the behaviour applied at every sign-in.
Is All Windows Appear a window manager?
Not in the tiling sense. It does not resize or arrange windows into grids; it only controls how an app's windows are raised and layered when you switch between programs.
Does macOS already do this?
Partly. Mission Control and App Exposé show you all windows, but they do not keep every window of an app raised together during normal switching, which is the gap this utility fills.
