Window Focus Window Focus

Focus on what
matters.

Dims every background window so the one you're working in takes center stage. Less visual clutter, more concentration.

Requires macOS 11.5 or later

Dimming

Background fades,
focus stays

Window Focus adds a dimming overlay behind your active window. Adjust the intensity from a subtle fade to near-blackout. The distraction disappears, your work remains.

Tint Color

Choose your
shade

The dimming overlay doesn't have to be black. Pick any color to tint your background windows. Match your mood, your wallpaper, or just go with what feels right.

Modes

Dim your
way

Choose how Window Focus behaves. Dim everything except the front window, dim per-screen, or dim inactive apps entirely. Pick the mode that suits how you work.

Exclusions

Some apps get
a free pass

Add apps to the exclusion list and Window Focus will never dim them, even when they're in the background. Perfect for apps you need to keep an eye on like Messages or Music.

Stay in the zone, effortlessly.
