What are the advantages over e.g. Spactacle?
Abhishek Biswal
@csaba_kissi Guessing that you can set default layouts for each app.

@csaba_kissi LayAuto is automatically with out mouse click or key press.

I liked the idea, but it doesn't seem to work for me on my Macbook Pro 15 2017. I had to open it twice for it to show me the instructions to activate it in the accessibility menu, and after that when I open it, it doesn't do anything.

@cataplines @aletocar @kees_romkes Hi guys, I find a issue when Separate Spaces disabled, can you enable this setting and try again ( System Preferences -> Mission Control -> ☑️ Displays have separate Spaces ) , I will release a new version to fix it later. Thanks.

Actually, I see this one as a complement to Spectacle since you can create presets which are quite useful!

@katrynvonfelsen I'm developing another useful function now , see you later !

Tried Layauto but didn't find any real "great USP's" that would make it my replacement for magnet or spectacle, because I didn't find any solution for the following scenario just yet; 1. I work on my laptop in the train or on the way quite a bit, and then just work full screen in apps. 2. I come to my office and have a dual screen setup there, splitting apps in half and using them either sideways or on top of each other (always half width or half height) I'm currently using a set of apple scripts to arrange these windows, but with changing window titles and business needs, I'd like to do this a bit faster, and I'd expected Layauto to do this, but unfortunately it's not. Fixing that would be great, an alternative for me would be better for this moment ;-)

I'm not sensitive to this myself, but selling your product for $6.66 (666 is considered a bad number by certain cultures or religions) may have negative connotations with potential market segments. Perhaps $6.99?
AntScript0
Hunter
@etc THANKS for your reminder ! $6.99 now ! : )
Lee Fuhr
This looks promising, but then the bulk of the comments seem to be bug reports. Any updates?
