Every feature, counted and accounted for.
We say PinLayout has 48 features built in. Here they are — all of them, named and explained. No asterisks.
Snap zones
Drag a window and it clicks into a defined region — no pixel-nudging, ever again.
Layouts & zonesCustom grids
Build any grid you like — thirds, quarters, 70/30 splits, asymmetric columns.
Layouts & zonesUnlimited saved layouts
Keep as many arrangements as you have moods. There’s no cap and no clutter.
Layouts & zonesVisual zone editor
Draw and resize zones directly on a live preview of your screen.
Layouts & zonesLayout templates
Start from proven arrangements — coding, writing, review, comms.
Layouts & zonesSmart gaps & padding
Set breathing room between zones, or zero it out for edge-to-edge density.
Layouts & zonesFractional geometry
Zones store as fractions of the work area, so a layout fits any screen it lands on.
Layouts & zonesZone naming
Call them “Editor” and “Reference,” not “zone 3.” Layouts read like your workflow.
Layouts & zonesPer-app zone pinning
Pin an app to a zone and every new window it opens lands there automatically.
Layouts & zonesSplit & merge zones
Divide a zone in two or fuse neighbours together without rebuilding the layout.
Layouts & zonesCenter-stage zone
A focus region that centres one window and dims the rest of the desk.
Layouts & zonesStacked zones
Layer several windows in one zone and flip through them like tabs.
Layouts & zonesFirst-launch AI setup
Open it once and your monitors are already mapped with layouts drafted to match.
AI & automationMonitor detection
Sizes, resolutions, scaling and arrangement — read automatically, re-read when they change.
AI & automationAI layout suggestions
Ask for a better arrangement any time — proposals are built around your real displays.
AI & automationOne-key apply
Accept a suggestion and the whole desk rearranges in a single keystroke.
AI & automationCalendar-aware layouts
A meeting starts, your call layout appears; it ends, deep-work comes back.
AI & automationMeeting detection
Knows when a call is live so your camera app never lands behind a spreadsheet.
AI & automationAuto layout switching
Rules move you between layouts on their own — by app, by time, by context.
AI & automationFocus profiles
Deep-work modes that hide the noisy apps and keep only what the task needs.
AI & automationBack-to-work restore
When the distraction ends, your previous arrangement returns by itself.
AI & automationLearns your habits
The more you correct it, the better its next proposal fits how you actually work.
AI & automationWorkspace snapshots
Capture the entire desk — every window, size and monitor — as one restorable state.
Sessions & restoreSession restore
Bring the whole workspace back after a reboot in one action.
Sessions & restoreSurvives OS updates
The update that rearranges everyone else’s windows doesn’t touch your setup.
Sessions & restorePer-monitor memory
Windows remember which display they belong to, not just where on it.
Sessions & restoreCrash recovery
An app dies and reopens — it goes straight back to its zone.
Sessions & restoreNamed snapshots
Keep several saved states — “pre-update,” “demo day,” “normal Tuesday.”
Sessions & restoreAuto-restore on launch
Start your machine and the desk assembles itself while you fetch coffee.
Sessions & restoreUnlimited monitors
As many displays as your machine can drive — each with its own zones.
Multi-monitorUltrawide column layouts
Turn a 34″ runway into three real workspaces instead of one stretched window.
Multi-monitorMixed size & DPI support
A 4K panel beside a 1080p side screen behaves — “left half” is right on both.
Multi-monitorDock & undock memory
Layouts are keyed to your display setup, so re-docking rebuilds the right desk.
Multi-monitorPer-display layouts
Different zone plans per screen — dense on the big one, simple on the laptop.
Multi-monitorMove window to display
Fling a window to the next screen — into the right zone — with one shortcut.
Multi-monitorDisplay hot-plug handling
Plug a projector in mid-presentation and nothing collapses into chaos.
Multi-monitorWindow undo
Ctrl+Z for your desk. Step back through moves, snaps and layout switches.
Control & shortcutsMove history
A running log of window movements you can walk backwards through.
Control & shortcutsGlobal hotkeys
Switch layouts, snap windows and fire snapshots without touching the mouse.
Control & shortcutsQuick layout switcher
A searchable palette: start typing a layout name and jump straight to it.
Control & shortcutsDrag-to-zone overlay
Hold a window and the zone map appears — drop it where you want it to live.
Control & shortcutsMenu bar / tray control
Everything reachable from a single icon — layouts, snapshots, settings.
Control & shortcutsShared team library
Publish a layout once; the whole team sees it in a shared, browsable list.
TeamOne-click layout import
Take a teammate’s layout and it adapts to your monitors on the way in.
TeamCross-platform sharing
A layout published on Windows imports cleanly on a Mac, and vice versa.

Only the author or the team owner can update or remove a shared layout.
TeamSign-in activation
One click, one secure browser handoff, unlocked — no long keys to type.
Account & privacyOffline-proof, private licensing
Signed licenses cached on-device keep working without Wi-Fi — and your layouts never leave your machine.
