Hi everyone, I'm Martín, an indie macOS developer (I also make Tangible). I built Many Displays because my two identical LG 4K monitors swapped places after every sleep, and every window piled up on one of them. macOS can't tell identical monitors apart because many ship with the same EDID serial, and DisplayPort monitors "disconnect" when the Mac sleeps. Many Displays keeps one layout per combination of displays. It tells identical monitors apart by system UUID and then by physical port, fixes the arrangement, resolution, rotation and HDR first, and then puts every window back by itself. It reads the window server's list (about 20 ms for hundreds of windows) instead of asking every app through Accessibility, so a busy app never stalls it. No network, no analytics, and the source is on GitHub under the FSL (MIT after two years). It's $19 one-time with a year of updates, after a 14-day trial with no account. I'd love to hear about setups where it fails: docks, three or more monitors, odd Spaces configs.
