# InfinitePIP > Keep any screen, window or region in view, always on top. Canonical page: https://pyrosoft.pro/software/infinitepip Status: active Platforms: Windows, macOS, Linux InfinitePIP puts any screen, app window or custom region of your desktop into a borderless, always-on-top picture-in-picture window. Keep a tutorial beside your editor, a second monitor in view on your main one, or several sources open at once without switching apps. Version 26.8.30 is a cross-platform preview with one shared interface for Windows, macOS and Linux, in light and dark themes. You pick a Screen, Window or Region source with search, thumbnails and crop presets, then set each PiP's opacity, zoom, pan, aspect ratio and frame rate (15, 30 or 60 fps). Click-through lets mouse clicks pass to the window underneath. A Windows-only 26.10.17 test build adds a live mirror mode that shows a window directly through the Windows compositor. Capture stays on your machine: there's no account, analytics, telemetry or cloud relay, and captured frames are never uploaded or recorded. InfinitePIP works with virtual monitors from PyroSoft's Virtual Display Driver, and older Windows releases stay available for anyone who relies on their command-line workflow. Price: $4.99. ## Requirements macOS 13 or later with Screen Recording permission; Windows 10/11 x64 or Windows 11 ARM64; Linux x86_64 or ARM64 (Wayland needs PipeWire and xdg-desktop-portal) ## Features - Screen, Window and Region sources with search, grid/list views and crop presets - Multiple borderless, always-on-top PiPs, each managed from Active PiPs - Opacity, zoom, pan, aspect ratio and 15/30/60 fps controls for every PiP - Click-through passes mouse clicks to the window underneath - One interface for Windows, macOS and Linux, with light and dark themes - Windows live mirror mode in the 26.10.17 test build - No account, analytics, telemetry or cloud relay; captured frames stay local - Works with Virtual Display Driver monitors as sources ## How to get it - [itch.io]() - [Project website]() ## Recorded details - Version: 26.8.30 (cross-platform preview); 26.10.17 Windows x64 unsigned test build - License: MIT (repository not public) - Updated: 2026-10-19 - First release: 25.7.16 on itch.io, Jul 16, 2025 (Windows) - Tech: Electron 44 ## Screenshots ![InfinitePIP 26.8.30 dashboard in the dark theme: a Create a PiP page offering Screens, Windows and Regions, with a sidebar listing sources, Active PiPs and About & Help](https://pyrosoft.pro/store-assets/media/95cc2c4a10-960.webp) ![InfinitePIP 26.8.30 dashboard in the light theme, showing Screens, Windows and Regions cards and a Ready status in the sidebar](https://pyrosoft.pro/store-assets/media/9c862f44ee-960.webp) ![An earlier InfinitePIP release on a Windows desktop: the main window listing three screens, with several floating PiP windows open, one showing its zoom, opacity and always-on-top controls](https://pyrosoft.pro/store-assets/media/2ee7a264f7-960.webp) ![The original InfinitePIP Windows app with three monitors listed and a PiP context menu](https://pyrosoft.pro/store-assets/media/76e6934507-960.webp) ## Questions ### Which platforms does InfinitePIP run on? Windows (x64 and ARM64, installer or portable), macOS (one universal build for Apple silicon and Intel Macs) and Linux (x86_64/amd64 and ARM64, as an AppImage or .deb). Version 26.8.30 is labelled a preview on every platform. ### Why does macOS ask for Screen Recording permission? macOS won't show screen or window previews until you allow it. Turn InfinitePIP on under System Settings > Privacy & Security > Screen Recording, then relaunch the app if macOS asks. ### Does InfinitePIP upload or record my screen? No. Captured frames are drawn into local PiP windows and are never uploaded, recorded or kept. There's no account, analytics, telemetry, cloud sync or update checker. ### What does click-through do? It lets mouse clicks pass through a PiP to the window underneath, not to the captured source. Use Restore clicks or Show in the main app to get the PiP's controls back. ### Can I keep a virtual monitor in a PiP? Yes, as long as the operating system exposes the virtual display as a normal capture source. On Windows, pair InfinitePIP with PyroSoft's Virtual Display Driver. ### Are the downloads signed? The macOS builds are notarized by Apple. The Windows builds, including the 26.10.17 test build, are unsigned, and the itch.io page labels them that way. ## Related guides and journals - [Click-through controls and the cross-platform download set](https://pyrosoft.pro/blog/click-through-controls-and-the-cross-platform-download-set.md) - [A better workspace for all your PiPs](https://pyrosoft.pro/blog/a-better-workspace-for-all-your-pips.md) - [Giving InfinitePIP a clearer front door](https://pyrosoft.pro/blog/giving-infinitepip-a-clearer-front-door.md) - [Rebuilding InfinitePIP around independent floating windows](https://pyrosoft.pro/blog/rebuilding-infinitepip-around-independent-floating-windows.md) - [InfinitePIP begins with a simple desktop idea](https://pyrosoft.pro/blog/infinitepip-begins-with-a-simple-desktop-idea.md)
