Best for

Mac users with external monitors that macOS refuses to scale or dim properly.

Why it deserves attention

BetterDisplay unlocks HiDPI resolutions on displays macOS treats as low-DPI, adds DDC brightness and contrast control, and can create virtual displays for streaming or headless use. Picture-in-picture, display syncing, and per-display presets round out the utility. Many basics are free, but advanced features require a paid license, and results depend on the monitor and cable.
