Q: Easier Split View Found

When I found out that OS X El Capitan was going to support Split View, I was excited and was going to throw away the app that I was using to do this feature. However, I do not care for how to go about using Split View that Apple has provided. Apple is all about simplicity, so why make it so that you have to click on a button to activate Split View and have it take you into a different window?

 

When the snap feature came available for Windows computers, a while ago, I wanted that feature for myself. So I went looking for this feature a while ago and found it. Not only was it available but it was simple and sleek. The app is called Cinch. I simply dragged my application to the top, it went full screen, to the left or right and it decided itself accordingly to that half of the screen. There was none of this click a button and it goes to a separate page and to do Split View. as a active user of Split View on a daily basis I find it rather helpful being as I am a student/family provider. I use Split View to do my budget; by having my bank account open on one side of the screen and having Numbers open on the other. By doing this I am able to monitor my bank account and balance my books. Im sure that you can think of other ideas that Split View could be great for, but that was just an idea as to what I use it for.

 

For those of you who are looking for a simpler solution, or another way to do things, you should check out this app that I purchased. AT THE TIME that I got this app it was not available in the App Store. There are now two ways you could get it; 1.) I got mine directly from the manufacture at Irradiated Software.com or 2.) Get it in the app store for $6.99.

 

If you want simple and easy to use, this is what I use and simply love. Maybe Apple can look at this and improve on what they already have.
