Tatammi

Every desktop is called “Desktop.”

Tatammi names them by what's actually in them — and tiles your windows the moment you arrive.

macOS 13 or later · Apple silicon & Intel · version 1.0.1

Built to close the gap between deciding to work and working

macOS Spaces are quietly broken for anyone on a laptop. You can't tell what's in a desktop without switching to it, and windows land wherever they like. Tatammi fixes both.

Named

Desktops you can actually tell apart

Name a space yourself, or let Tatammi name it from the app and document in front of you. You navigate by intent, not by counting swipes.

Tiled

Windows arrange themselves

Land on a space and the windows tile into a clean layout. Adjustable gaps. Drag something where you want it and Tatammi leaves it alone until the next retile.

Per‑desktop

Tiling where you want it, calm where you don't

Every space can be tiled on, off, or follow your global default. Your code space stays gridded; your reading space stays still.

⌃⌥ 1–9

Straight there, no Mission Control

Jump to any space from the menu bar or a global hotkey. No animation detour, no hunting.

Focus

Move your workspace to the screen you're using

Focus Display moves your whole set of spaces to whichever display you're actually looking at — built for laptop-plus-monitor life.

Quiet

A menu-bar app, not a project

No config files, no YAML, no scripting, no disabling system protection. Light and dark, VoiceOver support, native throughout.

Questions

Why isn't this on the Mac App Store?

Because it couldn't be. Reading and controlling Spaces needs private macOS frameworks that Apple bars from the Store. That's also why an app like this can exist at all.

Is it safe to install?

Yes. Tatammi is signed with an Apple Developer ID and notarized by Apple, so it installs without warnings.

What does it need access to?

Accessibility permission, which is what lets it move and resize windows. Nothing else, and nothing leaves your Mac.

How is this different from yabai or AeroSpace?

Those are powerful and expect you to configure them. Tatammi has opinionated defaults, no config file, and doesn't ask you to disable system protection.

Which Macs does it run on?

macOS 13 Ventura or later, on Apple silicon and Intel.
