• Quick access from the system tray and optional keyboard shortcuts
• Export/backup layouts to share or move between PCs
• Compact and unobtrusive, designed to run quietly in the background

Ideal for:

• Laptop users who frequently dock/undock
• Gamers who change resolutions
• Remote workers switching between displays
• Anyone frustrated by icons rearranging after updates or driver changes

Getting started:

• Launch the app and select Save to capture your current layout
