How to exclude an app from auto-tiling
Method
Menu bar
- 1
Focus a window of the app.
- 2
Click the BetterStage menu bar and choose Exclude App from Auto-Tiling. The item becomes Include App in Auto-Tiling when that app is already excluded.
Method
Settings
- 1
Open Settings → App Exceptions → Exclude from Staging.
- 2
Click Add App… and pick the app.
Both doors write the same Exclude from Staging list — the same list as the exclude-from-staging how-to. This is not Float in Window Modes. The app stays visible on every stage. Exclude is not on the default Snap Wheel; adding that slot requires Pro.
Try it yourself
BetterStage is free for up to three stages. TabStack, AI Staging, layout presets, and pinned displays are Pro, with a 10-day trial.
