HazeOver

This is a small app that I rarely see mentioned around and yet it’s pretty unique: it automatically highlights the front window on your Mac and puts an overlay over everything else.

Writing this post with HazeOver

Some great stuffs about it:

• The overlay is customisable (opacity and colour)
• You can turn it on/off with a keyboard shortcut¹
• It works with Apple’s Focus modes and Shortcuts
• It works with multiple displays

If you have a large display, don’t like Stage Manager, or don’t like working in full-screen, this small app is a really nice one to have.
