Introducing BetterStage v2.

TabStack mode turns Mac apps into tabs, tiles them across every display, and lets you drag a window onto another to split, swap, or join as tab.

Plus a lot more we're not showing here.

When there are just too many windows to fit simple tiling, just turn apps into tabs instead. grouping related windows into Tab Stacks is actually a pretty good idea for productivity, should probably adds that to AI Staging next...

New Terminal and browser windows should not land in whichever project is visible.

BetterStage App Routing sends future windows from a chosen app to the Stage and display you picked—while the project keeps its own multi-display workspace.

- Check out the new *Tabbed Layout Mode*, browser-style tabs for every app; great of managing large amount of windows per stage.

AI Staging in BetterStage doesn’t move windows the moment you ask. It drafts a workspace plan first, so you can review, refine, apply, or undo it — useful when one project spans code, docs, terminal, and a side monitor.

[BetterStage @betterstageapp]

Option-heavy keyboard layouts can turn app shortcuts into typed characters. BetterStage now has Standard and European shortcut presets, so stage switching can fit your actual keyboard instead of fighting it.

A vertical side monitor is useful until chat, docs, and notes keep stealing the main task. In BetterStage, that side monitor can stay pinned while each named stage changes the main workspace around it.

[BetterStage @betterstageapp]

Preset layouts with tabs are for the windows you want nearby, but not all visible at once.

One pane can hold several related windows. Click a tab, keep the layout.

It’s less about hiding work — more about keeping a project’s shape stable.

[BetterStage @betterstageapp]

A vertical side monitor is perfect for docs, chat, logs, or notes — until every project needs a different version of that setup.

BetterStage stages can span your main monitor and side monitor, with each display restoring its own layout.

[BetterStage @betterstageapp]

The expensive part of context switching isn't opening apps.

It's remembering where everything was, which window mattered, and what you were doing before Slack pulled you away.

BetterStage is built for that exact reset moment.

[BetterStage @betterstageapp]

BetterStage 1.0 introduces Tabbed Layout Mode — preset layouts with tabs, plus macOS Native and Bento Box modes.

Switch projects, and your whole stage comes back: monitors, modes, layouts, and windows for the right context.
