Switch apps with one letter
Tabbit is a native macOS app switcher. Hold Command, press Tab, then type the first letter of the app you want. Repeating a letter cycles through apps with the same initial.
Highlights
- Jump directly to running apps by letter, including Pinyin initials for Chinese app names.
- Keep using Tab, Shift–Tab, or the mouse whenever that feels faster.
- Restore minimized windows and reopen apps such as Finder when needed.
- Follow the system appearance, launch at login, and optionally hide the menu-bar icon.
- Process switching locally without recording typed text or keeping a key log.
Requirements
Tabbit requires Apple Silicon, macOS 13 or later, and Accessibility permission so it can handle the app-switching shortcut. The signed and notarized build supports in-app updates.
