DisplayPilot remembers how your displays are arranged at home, at the office and on the road. Connect, and it puts back the arrangement, resolutions, refresh rates and primary display.
Thirty seconds, no sound: three displays reconnect scrambled, DisplayPilot recognizes the setup, restores it and checks the result.
How it works
Docks, KVM switches and sleep/wake scramble the arrangement macOS remembers. DisplayPilot notices the change and restores yours.
Save a setup as a profile once. When that set of displays reconnects, DisplayPilot recognizes it and restores the arrangement, automatically with Pro or in one click.
See pricingAfter every restore, DisplayPilot reads the result back and reports anything macOS didn't apply. Where macOS gives apps no way to change a setting, such as rotation or HDR, it says so instead of pretending.
Many monitors don't report a unique serial number, so two of the same model look identical to macOS. DisplayPilot tells them apart by where they sit in your saved arrangement.

Small tools for the moments macOS's own display settings don't cover.
Optionally open new app windows on whichever display your pointer is on.
⌘-right-click or middle-click in any app to move its front window to another display.
Change resolution, scaling, refresh rate, primary display and arrangement right now, without saving a profile first.
A short, adjustable delay lets docks and monitors finish waking before a setup is restored, with an optional retry.
Lives in the menu bar with no Dock icon, and can launch at login so it's ready before you plug in.
No private system hooks. Where macOS can't change a setting, DisplayPilot tells you rather than faking it.

FAQ
After you buy, you'll get a license code by email. Open DisplayPilot, click Go Pro, paste the whole code and click Activate. The Pro screen then shows “Licensed to” your email address.
No. The license code is checked on your Mac, offline. There's no account to create and nothing to sign in to.
No. Two identical monitors often look the same to macOS, so DisplayPilot tells them apart by their position in your saved arrangement, and each goes back to its own place.
Macs with Apple silicon running macOS 13 Ventura or later.
macOS doesn't give apps a way to change those settings on Apple silicon Macs. DisplayPilot shows them for reference and tells you when a saved setting couldn't be applied.
