GroupShelf groups windows from any Mac app into tabs, like browser tabs for your whole desktop. Hold Shift and drag one window onto another to make or join a group. Move or resize one window and the whole group follows. Pull a tab off to split it again, color your tabs, name your groups. Native and lightweight, for macOS 15+ on Apple Silicon and Intel. $9.99 one-time, with a 30-day free trial of every feature.
Hi Product Hunt 👋
On Windows I lived in Groupy: drag one window onto another and they become tabs. When I moved to the Mac I couldn't find anything that felt the same, so I built GroupShelf.
What it does:
• Hold Shift and drag any window onto another to make or join a group, across apps (Finder, a terminal and a browser in one bar)
• Move or resize one window and the whole group follows
• Pull a tab off, or hit pop-out, to make it a window of its own again
• Color tabs, name groups; the bar follows Light or Dark mode
• And more: follows native ⌘T tabs, tab-switch shortcuts, multiple displays, a group list in the menu bar
It's native Swift for macOS 15+, on Apple Silicon and Intel. No account needed. The Accessibility permission is used only to read, move and raise other apps' windows, which is also why it isn't on the Mac App Store.
$9.99 one-time for up to 3 Macs, with a 30-day free trial of everything. Also on Homebrew: brew install --cask alpharium-tech/tap/groupshelf
🎉 Launch offer: code GSLAUNCH takes 25% off through Oct 31.
Which apps would you group first? I'd love to hear what feels missing.
I have Mac, but I mostly use browser tabs. Maybe I'll try this kind of grouping, too.
