$4.00 seems too low to make ongoing support and maintenance economically viable. It seems too high to compete with free. For the target market segment, the economic value of the app is probably hundreds of dollars a month and the alternative solution of writing it themselves is probably thousands of dollars of potentially billable time...anyway, my random advice is don't be embarrassed about charging meaningful money and don't try to price the app to entice people who really want it to be free. Price it for people who will value it based on ROI. The target market is people with the money to spend on an Apple computer and multiple monitors. There's plenty of money in that market.

Good luck.

Thanks for your comment! We made 50% off for start, so the final price is $8.

What is the price that is fair in your opinion?

I've been using Haze Over for years now. https://hazeover.com/ Does this do anything differently than Haze Over?

Haze Over dims everything but current window. ScreenFocus focuses the entire screen.

Just realized this is OS X only! I want this for Ubuntu and I'll give you $30 for it. :)

I feel like this could be built fairly easily.
