It feels like you "borrowed" our product name (Workspaces) and added PRO suffix to it. And the idea. I'm aware that they are not the same products, but it makes confusion.

dear @m_krzywonos, I did not know anything about your product. But "workspace" is just a word in english. Apple uses "workspace" word also and it inspired me when I named WorkspacePro. "WorkspacePro" describes very well what app does and it does not match with any other app's name. As You noticed, our apps are for different tasks :)

@orkerimli I think you should consider to change your app name. Now it makes confusion to our users and yours.

@m_krzywonos Please change your name because vmware has a product called workspace one. It's confusing. /s https://www.vmware.com/uk/produc... On a non-sarcastic note, if you don't want overlapping on a product name, try not to use the most general term possible. You don't own the word workspace.

@sam_ayres Well, our Workspaces was first than vmware product, as I remember :) I agree with you that there might be other apps with similar name. Or even with same name. The problem is that WorkspacePro does almost the same – it's a subset of Workspaces app features (starting resources with one click) + ability to close the apps. And when there are 2 apps that do very similar things, with very similar name, for the same operating system, it might be confusing.

@m_krzywonos I think you know that saying you did something first is a poor argument. If this is an issue for you, then you should have picked a more unique name then legally protected it in some form.

Hi, PH 👋 I am a software developer and after every starting macOS, I needed to launch routine apps (like design apps, different developer tools, and other daily apps). This process annoyed me and I decided to create an app to help other macOS users like me. :) How it works 🤩: - Create a group of apps - workspaces - Open and close all apps of this workspace only just clicking to button in the menu bar Other features 😎: * Can create unlimited workspaces * Workspaces can contain unlimited apps * Hide launched apps * Create new instances of apps if one is running already * Force terminate running workspace apps * Edit already created workspaces (name and contained apps) * Launch WorkspacePro on startup We will add new cool features in the next updates and You will get lifetime access to new updates. Let me know what you think about WorkspacePro 🙂

@orkerimli Does it have or do you have plans to have custom positions for apps on the screen? I'm a paid user of Lay Auto @layautoapp and that seems to be the only missing feature to make the switch.

Hi, Congrats on the launch of your product. I would like to know if there is any difference between your App and Workspaces App that I bought recently from Apptorium (https://www.apptorium.com/worksp...). The name of your App and what it does is strikingly similar to them. Not sure how I feel about it, to be honest.

@pathik_botadra thanks a lot. I did not know anything about the existing of this app. And yes, names are similar :) But they are different apps - my app launches and closes groups of apps at the same time and allows to control launching and closing behaviours (such as hide apps after launching, force terminate apps if some app does not respond, create new instance of app one instance already running), but your app is quick access app. :)
