Why might you need a plugin like Window History?
The problem
Too many windows. Too many apps. Too much to track.
A normal computer session can get messy fast. You open tabs, switch apps, move between tasks, and suddenly the thing you were using a minute ago is gone.
Unorganized desktop
Windows pile up and everything starts to blur together.

The solution
Window History gives you a simple memory for your workspace
Instead of relying on memory alone, Window History keeps track of your recent app activity locally on your Mac. That means you can quickly return to things you were just using, without digging through clutter.
How it works
It saves your recently opened apps on a timeline
The core idea is simple: when you move between apps and windows, the plugin records recent activity and keeps it ready in the menu bar.
Open an app
Switch windows
Window History saves it
It appears in your recent timeline
Reopen it later
- saves recent app activity
- lets you bookmark important items
- helps you reopen what you were just using
- stays local instead of sending your history away
Why you might need it
It is useful if your computer use gets messy fast
You multitask a lot between notes, browsers, documents, and tools.
You often close or bury something important by accident.
You want a faster way to get back to what you were doing.
You want more structure without changing how you already work.
