## Good for

- People who want exact window sizes, not just halves and quarters
- Anyone working on both a Mac and a Windows PC

- The page does not state the trial length or whether major updates are free.

## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.2 out of 4**, graded Nov 12, 2026. Divvy lets you drag across a grid to size and place a window, or set shortcuts that do it. It's $13.99 on Mac and Windows. The product page still mentions Mac OS X 10.6 and an old update notice, and the trial length isn't stated.

- **Value for money: B.** $13.99 per license, below the $16 middle of one-time prices in this category.
- **Free plan and trial: C.** A free trial download, but the page doesn't say how long it lasts or what it limits.
- **Features: C.** Grid resizing, custom shortcuts and relative screen portions. The page itself looks out of date, so its current support isn't clear.
- **Ease of use: C.** No store rating on record. The grid takes some practice, but there's no big setup.
- **Platforms and integrations: C.** Mac and Windows editions. Computers only, with no phone app or integrations.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace Divvy you would be making control over other apps' windows. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 22 of the 28 other window managers and launchers grade higher.

- You could not: Control over other apps' windows.
- You could not: A real app for macOS and Windows. Something home-made would be a web page.
