Session persistence

Last updated: 29 May 2026

What it does

StreamView auto-saves your session every 30 seconds and when the app closes, then restores it on the next launch. It remembers:

  • open terminals and their positions
  • workspace configurations
  • layout preferences
  • window size and position

How to use it

Two settings under Settings > General > Startup control restore behavior:

  • Restore on launch — restores workspaces and stream layout from the last session.
  • Auto-start streams on restore — when on, terminal processes start automatically; when off, only the layout is restored and you press play to start each stream individually.

Troubleshooting

  • Streams restore but aren't running — that's "Auto-start on restore" being off; turn it on, or press play per stream.
  • Nothing restores — make sure "Restore on launch" is enabled.
