WindowMizer brings back an old Mac favourite that modern macOS left behind. Double click a window title bar and the whole window rolls up into that bar, like a window shade, leaving your desktop clear. Click again and the window returns at full height. It is a simple idea that still helps on crowded screens. Updated Aug 20, 2026.

FAQs

How is this different from minimising a window?

Minimising sends a window down to the Dock. WindowMizer leaves a slim title bar where the window was, so you can see what is open and reopen it in place.

Can I try WindowMizer first?

The vendor lists a free trial for the app, so you can test the window shade behaviour on your own Mac before you buy a licence for daily use.
