Need to clear your desktop in a flash but don’t want to lose where all of your windows were? You need Later, a new macOS app that’s available to download today.

The new app is both simple and a genius idea because it requires just one keyboard shortcut to instantly clear your Mac’s desktop of all windows and apps. It could be perfect for sharing your screen via a video call or just when someone comes to visit your desk in the office.
