No bloat, no lag, no memory leaks. Why Switcher? Frustrated with AltTab? You're not alone. AltTab is powerful but comes with costs: - 🐌 Sluggish performance over time - 💾 Memory usage that grows unbounded - 🔋 Background CPU drain - 🐛 Occasional freezes and glitches - ⚙️ Complex settings for features you don't use Switcher takes a different approach: do less, but do it well. What Switcher Does - ✅ Shows only apps with visible windows (no hidden/minimized clutter) - ✅ Sorts by most recently used - ✅ Native macOS blur effect - ✅ Instant response ( Switcher is ad-hoc signed, so rebuilding/replacing the app can invalidate a previous grant — just remove and re-add it under Accessibility. Stopping Switcher To turn Switcher off, use menu bar ⌘ → Quit . Removing its Accessibility permission is not a reliable off-switch: macOS caches an app's permission for its entire running lifetime, so Switcher keeps working until you relaunch it (at which point it sees no permission and leaves Cmd+Tab alone). Switcher uses a passive event tap, so — unlike many tools — revoking its permission does not risk the known macOS input-freeze that active-tap apps can trigger. Auto-Start Open Preferences (menu bar ⌘) and tick Start at login (macOS 13+). Or add it manually via System Settings → General → Login Items. Usage Key Action ----- -------- Cmd+Tab Open switcher / next app Cmd+Opt+Tab Show all apps (when the recent-apps limit is on) Shift","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/fad1","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/fad1/Switcher/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
