DeskSay documentation
Everything DeskSay does, a page at a time. macOS gives desktops numbers; DeskSay gives them names, and then lets you say, type, click or press your way to one.
If you have just installed it, start with the six-step guide: six things to try, one screen each, about ten minutes. Come back here when you want the detail on a particular part.
The pages
The Board
The full-screen grid of every desktop. How to open it, every key it answers to, full size, reordering, and adding a desktop.
Naming desktops
Names, aliases, icons and colours, what the rules are, and how a name stays on its desktop through a reboot.
Saying a desktop name
Press, say the name, arrive. What you can say, what the HUD tells you, and why nothing you say leaves the Mac.
Switching and shortcuts
Every route to a desktop: shortcuts, numbers, Jump Back, the notch strip, and dragging a window to another desktop.
More than one display
A Board per screen, sizes per screen, and linking a desktop on one screen to a desktop on another so one name moves both.
The menu bar and Mission Control
The four things the menu bar item can show, everything in its dropdown, and desktop names drawn over Mission Control.
Notes, time and automations
A note per desktop, time per desktop and per app, and actions that run when you arrive at a desktop or leave it.
Settings
A reference for every pane and every switch, so you can find the one you want without hunting.
Licence, updates and privacy
What it costs, what the trial includes, what happens after it, which permissions are for what, and what leaves the Mac.
In short
These pages describe the current release. What changed in each version is listed under What's new on the home page.
