Does Moom support macOS 26 Tahoe?
Yes. Many Tricks adapted Moom to macOS 26 in version 4.4 (November 2025) and kept fixing Tahoe issues in later releases, so update to the newest version first.
Troubleshooting
Moom not working on macOS 26 Tahoe?
Moom, from Many Tricks, moves and resizes windows with a pop-up palette, keyboard shortcuts and saved layouts. If the palette stopped appearing or layouts stopped applying after you moved to macOS 26 Tahoe, these steps fix most cases.
Short version: update Moom, then toggle its Accessibility permission off and on and reboot. If what you really want is every window, app, Space and browser tab back after sleep, a restart or a monitor reconnect without triggering anything, SnapState does that for $9.99 once.
What should you try first?
1. Update Moom. Version 4.4 adapted it to macOS 26, and later releases fixed more Tahoe drawing issues and improved window ordering when restoring layouts. 2. Open System Settings, Privacy and Security, Accessibility, turn Moom off, wait a few seconds and turn it back on. 3. In Moom's General settings, switch Run as between menu bar and standard, relaunch, then switch back. 4. Reboot. 5. If it still fails, remove Moom from the Accessibility list, reinstall it, grant permission again and reboot. These steps follow Many Tricks' own support article.
What changed in macOS 26 for Moom?
Many Tricks' release notes say macOS 26 broke the feature that treated drawers as part of their parent window, so Moom no longer offers it on macOS 26. Apps that do not expose their windows to the macOS Accessibility interface also cannot be moved by Moom, or by any other window tool, including SnapState.
How do they compare for layouts?
| Moom | SnapState | |
|---|---|---|
| Main job | Snap, tile and move the current window | Save and restore whole workspaces |
| Price | $15 | $9.99 once for up to 3 Macs |
| Relaunches apps | Moom 4 layouts can launch apps, one window each | Yes, with their windows and tabs |
| Windows on every Space and full screen | Not listed | Yes |
| Browser tabs | No | Safari, Chrome, Edge, Brave, Arc, Chromium |
| Restores on wake or monitor connect | Layouts can trigger on display changes | Yes, automatically |
What is the alternative?
If you used Moom mainly to get your layout back, SnapState captures a named workspace with windows on every Space, the apps to relaunch, full screen windows and all open browser tabs, and restores it with a click, a shortcut or automatically on wake and monitor connect. Many people keep Moom for snapping and use SnapState for restoring. See Moom vs SnapState and Moom alternatives.
See SnapState restore a workspace
The 40 second demo shows a workspace saved from the menu bar and restored with one click: apps relaunch and windows return to their displays, positions and sizes.
What are SnapState's honest limits?
SnapState is not a tiling or snapping tool. It does not save tab groups, history or form data, Firefox is not supported, and it does not change the display arrangement, menu bar or Dock. It needs Accessibility permission, and Automation permission for browser tabs. See SnapState.
Frequently asked questions
Why does the Moom pop-up palette not appear?
Many Tricks says this is usually the macOS Accessibility system losing track of Moom's permission. Toggling Moom off and on under Privacy and Security, Accessibility, or a reboot, fixes it for most people.
Does SnapState replace Moom?
Only for saving and restoring layouts. SnapState restores whole workspaces, with apps, Spaces and browser tabs. It does not snap or tile the window you are using, which Moom does.
How much is SnapState?
$9.99 once, for up to three Macs, with a 14-day refund. Version 2.7.5 needs macOS 15.7 or later and runs on macOS 26.
