Pipiri

About Pipiri

Pipiri is a Picture-in-Picture app for macOS. Press a hotkey and the focused window becomes a floating panel that stays on top across all Spaces. It works with any window, not just video players.

Useful for keeping an eye on terminals, logs, dashboards, AI agents, or video streams without switching windows.

Key Facts

Features

• PiP any window with a single hotkey (fn + P by default)
• Region capture: drag to select a specific area of a window
• Quick region capture: double-click while holding fn to zoom into an area around the cursor
• Flexible zoom with scroll-to-pan when zoomed in
• Per-app frame rate (1 fps for terminals, 30-60 fps for video)
• Click-through mode with auto-hide when the cursor moves over the PiP
• Multi-window mode for capturing several windows at once
