GroupTab enhances app switching on macOS. Arrange running apps into labeled, row‑based groups, cycle through each group as usual, or hop between groups to keep context and cut clutter.

Hey Product Hunt! I built GroupTab because the default app switcher on macOS often feels chaotic when I'm juggling different "modes" of work or many apps running at the same time.
GroupTab is a grouped app switcher, an alternative to the default macOS app switcher . Instead of cycling through a long list of apps, you organize them into visual rows and jump between groups instantly. It's perfect for keyboard-heavy users, developers, designers, or anyone who keeps many apps running simultaneously.
I'd love your feedback! The app is $1.99 but I'm making it free until September 26th so people can try it out and see if it clicks for them. No point charging for something if it doesn't actually improve your workflow.
Thanks for taking a look, your comments will help shape where we take GroupTab.
Quick update: v1.1 is live.
Highlights:
New first‑run intro to get set up faster
Smoother appear animation the first time the switcher shows
App switcher tweaks:
Labels reveal when hovering over app icons
Press Escape to cancel without switching
Centers on first launch with more reliable window reuse
Better multi‑display behavior (uses the active screen)
Snappier click/drag responsiveness
Settings: fixed group editing by ID
General performance and stability improvements
Huge thanks to everyone who tried the launch version and shared feedback, it directly informed this polish pass. Pricing is back to $1.99 after the free launch week, but I’m still iterating quickly, so keep the feedback coming. If you hit any edge cases, I’d love to hear about them so I can prioritize the fix.
A solid solution to fix the messy app switcher issue on macOS! I’ll definitely give a try
The UI looks so clean and intuitive; great job making a powerful tool feel simple!
