## Background
macOS Tahoe 26 replaced the classic 16-tile volume HUD with a smaller one that appears only in the top-right corner of the active display.
The new HUD is hard to read at a glance, especially on multiple displays where the active screen might not be the one in use.
Due to varying volume levels across different apps and websites, I frequently adjust the volume. So I built VolumeGrid and have been using it since day one. It should be stable after several iterations and edge case fixes.
