HazeOver Darkens Distractions by Fading Windows Background on Your Mac

OS X: HazeOver makes it easy to focus on the task at hand, even if you have multiple windows open on your Mac. All it does is dim the background windows and the desktop, and the front active window stays bright on top of all the others. When you switch, it’s the same with lighting, and you stay focused without being distracted.

The video above is a great demonstration of how the app works. While it is running, the application you are working on will have full screen brightness and focus, while the rest will fade and fade in the background. Astute readers may remember that we mentioned this application many years ago when it was first launched. It has come a long way since then with more precise and faster focus switching, adjustable brightness and dimming intensity, customizable animation duration (so you can darken windows slowly or do it very quickly) and an interactive menu bar icon so you can customize the app. settings without opening the application itself. HazeOver now supports multiple monitors, trackpad gestures, keyboard and more.

Of course, more features come with a price tag and the app is now available for $ 4 on the Mac app store . Click the link below to see more screenshots in action or to get the beta (which you can get by contacting the developer).
