Lyra
Keyboard-first app switching for Mac
Lyra is for Mac users who know exactly where they want to go next. Instead of chasing Command-Tab’s shifting order or opening a full launcher, put daily apps on fixed shortcuts: Dock apps, custom app rows, Quick Switch, window cycling, Smart Cycle, Double-Tap Recall, App Peeking, Long Press to Quit, and per-app input methods. Built for tiny context switches that happen all day. Private by design: no account, no cloud sync, no analytics.
I'm Ethan, I built Lyra. You may have seen similar software, but Lyra is truly unique.
I highly recommend you don't miss it. We're currently offering a 7-day trial. If it doesn't work, you can come and yell at me.
Lyra is for keyboard-first Mac users who want important apps on fixed, memorable shortcuts. You can open Dock apps, assign custom app rows, cycle windows, jump through recent apps with Quick Switch, use Smart Cycle and Double-Tap Recall, hide apps with App Peeking, long-press to quit, and switch input methods per app.
It is local-first by design: no account, no cloud sync, no analytics. The Direct Edition has a 7-day trial and a one-time launch price.
I would love feedback from Mac power users on the default workflow, positioning, and which switching habits Lyra should support next.
I use Lyra everyday! Give it a try and you'll love this feeling of high efficiency, just like I have!
