Two Slacks, two Claudes, two WhatsApps, open at once. Parallex makes a real copy of any Mac app with its own sign-in, data, notifications and Dock icon, and never touches your original. Free and open source for macOS 14+.
Hey Product Hunt! I built Parallex because I live in two of everything: a work Claude and a personal one, a client's Slack beside my own.
Pick an app, give the copy a name and a color, sign in with the other account. Both run side by side. A few things I'm proud of:
- Sign-in links from the browser go to the right copy
- A nightly lab tests 18 popular apps so you know what works before you try
- Workspaces open a whole set of copies at once (say, everything for one client)
- Snapshots let you roll a copy back if an update goes wrong
It's free and open source. Tell me which app you'd want to run twice.
