Keep the image you need hovering over the work that matters.
+
+ Float is a compact macOS viewer for cheat sheets, mockups, diagrams, and reference
+ images. Open a file, fit it instantly, and keep it pinned above your editor, browser,
+ or design tools.
+
+ Float opens local images with native file pickers, keeps the window above the rest of
+ your desktop, and stays out of the way when you just need a visual anchor nearby.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
Reference-first
+
Pin shortcut sheets, diagrams, or screenshots over active work.
+
+ Keep a single image visible while coding, designing, editing, or reviewing. Float
+ removes everything that slows down that loop.
+
+
+
+
Native controls
+
Open files quickly, fit the frame, and move through a selected image set.
+
+ Multi-file navigation, slideshow mode, aspect lock, and window persistence are built
+ into the current release without adding app chrome everywhere.
+
+
+
+
Trusted download
+
Ship a direct macOS build with the checks users expect.
+
+ Public downloads come from GitHub Releases with a stable asset name, checksum, and a
+ notarized DMG so the install path feels legitimate instead of improvised.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
In use
+
Reference imagery stays legible without turning into another workspace.
+
+ The app is intentionally sparse: no dashboard, no sync model, no browser tabs. Just a
+ lightweight viewer for keeping visual context alive on the desktop.
