Question 1

What is Pik?

Accepted Answer

A tiny macOS utility that pops a Discord stream or screen share into a floating, always-on-top window, so you can keep watching while you work in other apps.

Question 2

How does it work?

Accepted Answer

Pik detects a running Discord automatically. Pick the Discord window to capture, hit Start Picture in Picture, and the stream floats above everything else.

Question 3

The video is black — what do I do?

Accepted Answer

Relaunch Discord in PiP mode and hit Refresh. Pik reminds you right in the window.

Question 4

Can I pop any window, not just Discord?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Flip on Show all apps to search and float any open window, not only Discord.

Question 5

Does the window stay on top?

Accepted Answer

Yes — the floating window stays above your other apps so the stream is always in view.

Question 6

What do I need to run it?

Accepted Answer

A Mac running macOS 26 or later. If macOS says it can't verify the developer on first launch, right-click the app and choose Open.

Question 7

How much does it cost?

Accepted Answer

Free.
