Better Window Switcher
Switch windows and browser tabs in 3D on your Mac
A beautiful, fluid 3D window switcher for macOS on Apple Silicon. Every window and every browser tab as its own card, in true 3D with live previews. Fuzzy search across all of them, and one keystroke that switches back to your last window with no UI at all. Seven 3D arrangement styles. No account, one-time purchase, 7-day trial.
Hey! Julien here.
I built this window switcher after getting a bit frustrated with AltTab and Mission Control. I always felt AltTab needed to be more visual and since I do a lot of my work inside browsers like most people, individual tabs should be switchable as well. I was also missing one crucial thing that I do all the time: switching between two apps, very often.
So I built exactly that: a 3D window switcher that is visual first and has the power-user features I was missing.
Press one key and every window on your Mac appears in 3D with browser tabs as their own cards. Pick with a flick of the trackpad or by typing a few letters. It also has full keyboard navigation in case you do not want to use the trackpad or mouse.
Here are the most important features at a glance:
- 7 different 3D styles with live previews of windows and tabs
- Instant switch to the last focused window: hold the shortcut and tap the key above Tab
- Tab support in Safari, Chrome, Firefox, Brave, Edge, Vivaldi and Opera, plus Finder and Terminal
- Fuzzy search across all windows and tabs within seconds
At first I only implemented one boring style. Then I remembered Compiz and Beryl on Linux, spinning windows around a cube, and thought: why not. People who played around with those will find this familiar maybe a little nostalgic even.
Performance wise it is pretty lightweight. Capturing only happens while switching, so excessive battery drain is prevented, and it employs smart caching to stay RAM-friendly. No account, no tracking, and what it sees of your windows never leaves your Mac.
I also wanted to publish this app in the App Store, but the sandbox blocks the API that focuses another app's window, so it would not work there. The app is notarized by Apple and published under our German company, KSK IT.
It needs an Apple Silicon Mac on macOS 14 or newer. Seven-day trial with no signup, then a one-time 12.99 for two Macs during the launch. 14-day money-back guarantee no questions asked.
Thank you and have fun trying this window switcher out. Let me know which style you liked best, I hope it is the Ring Switcher :) I will be here all day, in case anyone has questions.
