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.

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.


Update: Since 5.29, we have added support in Crop to automatically detect crop regions (see the second tab)

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.

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.

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.

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.

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)

Amazing-Saved my Twitch Streams
Really solved my need for having a chat for twitch and an activity bar on the same screen. I hated having to look at a second screen to read my chat quickly but Window Top solved that. I bought a license to support such an awesome product THANK YOU!

Works nice, I didn't believe it until I tried this
(I put my main use cases at the end) This app has everything I dreamed of and the shortcuts make it easy to use. I thought something like this would slow down the computer but it has not. It also has some features I didn't dream of but could be useful sometimes. I'm using it on a laptop but if someone has one huge monitor that you work on then it becomes even more important to use this. The next 3 use cases are completely worth it (4th is extra): -> most useful thing is basically to have a YouTube video with some background something on at the side honestly. ->Also, using the transparency feature to seamlessly multitask while on a zoom call. ->Also pinning and transparency to a group chat while on a zoom call, so you can still see everyone not shrunken up and also the chat. ->pinning a notepad sometimes with your todo list at the side of the screen, a little transparent as well.

Good and practical
This app has been my main app especially since I have only single monitor. I can write notes on a different files without having to alt+tab to other. Very practical and easy to use

Does what its supposed to do
To keep it simple, all I needed to do was to make my window transparent and it does that very well. My only criticism is if you pin the transparent window, it creates a red outline around the window which in my opinion defeats the purpose of transparency.

Works as advertised. It forces windows to stay on top.
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.

I wish Windows had this as core feature. I am glad WindowTop exists! Works really well!
