How to auto-align instances while using BlueStacks 5 on multiple monitors

How will this help?

You can auto-align active instances on the monitor of your choice by using the grid icon within the Multi-instance Manager on BlueStacks 5. Organize your instances quickly and neatly on one monitor while you use the other monitor(s) for other tasks.

Your instances can be auto-aligned in one of the following ways: 

  • Arrange all - Align all your active instances
  • Arrange selected - Align only selected active instances
