Always on Top – Keep Windows Visible While You Work
Keep any window always on top of others and highlight it with a customizable colored border. Easily adjust frame color, thickness, and behavior from the Always on Top settings — perfect for multitasking, monitoring apps, or staying focused while working.
Anchors – Instantly Access Windows with One Click
Need faster access to your windows? Anchors let you instantly bring windows to focus with a single click — faster than ALT+TAB and perfect for touchscreens. Instead of keeping windows always on top, use Anchors to quickly reopen minimized or background windows.
Anchors automatically avoid covering text or images by smartly repositioning themselves on your screen.
Picture-in-Picture (PiP) & Crop — Watch and Work with Any Window
Easily watch videos or monitor any window while working using Picture-in-Picture (PiP) mode. You can interact directly with PiP windows, keep them floating above your work, and even crop specific areas of the window to focus only on what matters.
Auto-Move for PiP – Stay Focused, Avoid Distractions
Picture-in-Picture mode includes an Auto-Move feature that intelligently repositions the window to avoid covering important text or images on your screen.
Opacity Control – See Through Windows While You Work
Adjust window transparency to see background content while working. Opacity Control lets you overlay windows, compare designs, write code, or follow tutorials without constantly switching windows.
Opacity with Click-Through – Work Seamlessly Over Transparent
Enable click-through on transparent windows to interact directly with content behind them. Perfect for designers, artists, or anyone tracing, copying, or referencing elements on screen.
Dark Mode – Reduce Eye Strain at Night
Switch to Dark Mode and reduce screen brightness when working at night or in low-light environments. Apply dark theme even for apps or windows that don’t natively support it.
Note: Stable on Windows 11. May be unstable on Windows 10.
Glass Mode – Smart Transparency with Adjustable Blur
Glass Mode offers advanced transparency control, allowing you to separately adjust opacity for window backgrounds, text, and images. Customize the blur level for a modern, glass-like visual effect. Optimized for NVIDIA GPUs with CUDA acceleration.
Note that this may work slowly on 4K and will work better for NVIDIA GPUs (make use of CUDA feature)

Very helpful for watching videos when I work. Thank you!
Really helps productivity to be able to keep specified windows on top. Great idea.
I originally installed WindowTop to use overlay a ruler for a game I really liked to play that required it, but didn't have one implemented. After awhile my use of the app evolved to using the "Set Top" and "Opacity" features for timers, watching videos, drawing art, editing/working on spreadsheets, etc. It really helps me maximize the space and potential of my two monitors for whatever I'm doing.
I do a lot of college work, so when I'm doing my lab work I have to enter in notes on my notepad while looking at a video. It was really annoying to click into the video and then the video would cover my notepad. but with this, I can easily click back and forwards with this program. I also like the other things they have on here like translucent feature, the picture in picture feature, the glass feature which allows you look through the program your using to other programs) , etc. Other programs only have the window on top feature but these ones have a few other ones that can help someone too.
I just use the app to pin a visual timer on top of my other windows. That function is available in the free version you can set a hotkey (Alt+Z by default) to toggle the feature on and off for a given window.
Been looking for a solution for PiP and always on top for a long time. This app is perfect. It does exactly what I have been looking for. If I could give it 10 stars I would.
An awesome feature which facilitates to save an ample time to concentrate on my regular official tasks
doesn't seem to be a virus seems to be very useful for me
This is free to use and even if your free trail ends, you still can use the main features, just some features are removed. In short words this is free and easy to use.
I wish Windows had this as core feature.
I am glad WindowTop exists! Works really well!
