Helium is a macOS application that provides a floating browser window that stays on top of other windows, letting users watch media or browse the web while working. It supports a translucent mode that passes mouse clicks through to underlying windows.
Use cases
- watch videos in a floating window while working
- keep a web page always on top of other apps
- browse documentation without switching windows
- use a translucent browser overlay that lets clicks pass through
- picture-in-picture style web browsing on macOS
When to avoid
- you need an actively maintained or updated browser
- you are on Windows or Linux
- you need full browser features like extensions or devtools
