How do Snap Layouts work? ​

Snap Layouts work as follows:

1. Open all the programs you want to work on.
2. Pull one window to the front of the screen and hover your mouse on the Maximize button (on the top-right and second from the left).
3. You will see six layout options to snap your open windows from which you can choose one. These snap layouts are:

• Two windows at an even length
• Two windows with one bigger side
• Three vertical windows at even length
• Four windows in a grid
• Three windows with one side bigger

1. After choosing one Snap Layout, you can tile the opened programs in each section available in the layout according to your choice.
2. After this, your screen will be organized and you can get easy access to multiple apps.

Smart Layouts​

SmartWindows introduces a special feature ‘Smart Layouts’(https://smartwindows.app/blog/snap-layouts-vs-smart-layouts/) specifically for Windows 11. Smart Layouts allow you to restore the Snap Layouts with one click. They help restore the Windows positioning and Window sizes according to the layout you saved previously. SmartWindows saves the screen configuration you create on manual arrangement of apps or using Snap Layouts.
