Mac & Windows

Every web app.
One flick away.

SideView keeps your apps in a calm panel that slides in the instant you need it — and slips away the moment you don't.

Stop juggling windows.
Your apps come to you.

How it works

Nudge the edge.
There it is.

Glide your cursor to the side of the screen — or press a shortcut — and SideView slides in. Move away and it glides back out. No Dock, no clutter.

Nudge the edge

It's a real browser

Your app, full-size,
in a calm little panel.

Not a stripped-down clone. SideView runs the real site — signed in and fully interactive — in a focused column right beside your work.

Made for the apps you live in

Messaging. Music. Mail.
All a flick away.

Add any site and it stays logged in and ready — switch with a click from the dock on the left.

Not just web apps

Built-in tools,
always within reach.

A scratch notepad, a clipboard history you opt into, and instant search ride along beside your apps.

The hybrid panel

Mac and Windows.
The same calm panel.

One experience across your machines — built on the system's own web engine, so it stays light and feels native everywhere.

macOS 11+
Windows 10 / 11

Private by design

Your accounts stay yours.

No password handling

You log in directly with each site over HTTPS. SideView never sees or stores a credential.

Sandboxed apps

Every web app runs isolated and can't reach the app, the clipboard, or your files.

Opt-in clipboard

Clipboard history is off by default and kept in memory only — never written to disk.

Light on your machine.
Heavy on your flow.

Tabs load when you open them and sleep when you don't — so a dozen apps stay a flick away without weighing you down.

Free & open source

Bring calm
to your desktop.
