Native Tile

# Native Tile 1.0.0 Nightly (32)

Nightly release. This development build may contain unfinished changes or regressions.

## Features

Hold Option while dragging a window to snap it without reaching an edge. The half of the display under the pointer snaps the window to that side, and the area near each corner snaps it to that corner. Edges keep the layouts you assigned them. Let go of Option before the mouse button to leave the window where it is. The welcome guide's Edge Snap chapter has a step for it, and the practice desktop and the practice map in Edge Snap settings respond to Option too.

macOS has its own "Hold ⌥ key while dragging windows to tile" setting, which is on by default. While it is on, Native Tile leaves Option drags to macOS so the window is not placed twice, and Edge Snap settings link to Desktop & Dock to turn it off. To turn this feature off, choose Edges only under Hold Option in Edge Snap settings.

Dragging a window out of a layout Native Tile placed it in gives it back the size it had before, as macOS does for windows it tiles. The window eases to that size around the pointer as the drag begins, so you keep hold of the title bar, and the motion follows your window animation settings. Moving a window from one layout to another keeps the size from before the first, and a window you resize or move another way first keeps its new size. To keep layout sizes instead, choose Keep layout size under Drag out of a layout in Edge Snap settings.

## Installation

Requires macOS 15 or later. Supports Apple silicon and Intel Macs. Download the ZIP below, unzip it, and move Native Tile to Applications. Existing installations with update support can use Check for Updates in Settings.

Select Stable, Beta, or Nightly in Settings → General → Updates. Returning to Stable waits for a newer stable version; it does not install an older version. Automatic checks are optional, and installation asks for confirmation.

## Verification

The app is signed with Developer ID and notarized by Apple. The release includes a SHA-256 checksum file alongside the ZIP, and in-app downloads are verified with Sparkle signatures.
