If you’re a multi-tasker and have a lot of windows open, you know how cluttered the desktop can get. To clean up your screen, you can minimize your windows to the dock, but that will spread and clutter the dock.

A quick and helpful option is to enable “Minimize windows into applications icon.” With this feature enabled, any windows that are minimized will be listed under the corresponding app in the dock.

To enable this feature:

  • Go to the Apple logo in the left hand corner and select System preferences.
  • Select Dock in the top row.
  • Check Minimize windows into applications icon.

To view your windows just right click or (control-click) on the app and a list of all open windows will appear.
