Sxitch

Sxitch is a keyboard-driven application switcher for macOS.

That helps users quickly locate and switch to target programs by entering their application names. It uses a tree-like filtering logic; entering the first letter of the application name gradually narrows down the candidate list, and the switch is completed immediately when a unique match is found, reducing the time spent searching back and forth between the Dock, windows, or mouse operations. The software offers normal switching, hiding applications, and exiting applications modes. Users can hide currently unwanted programs with a single keystroke or close applications with a keystroke to keep the desktop tidy. The interface supports vertical lists and radial layouts to adapt to different operating habits; preset and custom accent colors can instantly change the visual style of the entire interface. Sxitch is developed using Swift and native macOS APIs, is compatible with Apple Silicon and Intel Macs, requires macOS 15 or later, and is open source under the Apache 2.0 license. The free version includes tree-like application switching, normal mode, and theme functionality; the professional version adds window selection, hide and exit modes, application blacklists and overriding rules, custom mode, and support for multiple Macs.
