TouchSwitcher

TouchSwitcher is a handy little app that works with the 2016 MacBook Pro's Touch Bar. You know, that cool strip above the keyboard that replaced those old function keys? Well, this app makes it even better by letting you switch between apps right from the top of your keyboard!

How TouchSwitcher Works

Now, here's something to keep in mind: while the Touch Bar is built into your Mac's operating system, you can only use TouchSwitcher if your device has the actual hardware. So make sure you've got a MacBook Pro from 2016 or later.

No Customization Needed

One of the neat things about TouchSwitcher is that it doesn't require any complicated setup. You won't find a customization interface here; everything you need happens through the Touch Bar itself. But don't worry! For easy access, there's a hotkey you can use—just hit Option + 9 to pull up its icon and see all your apps.

Your Apps at Your Fingertips

The moment you open TouchSwitcher, you'll notice its icon pop up in the Touch Bar menu along with other system buttons. Just swipe left on the Touch Bar, and voilà! The app list expands right there for you.

Quick Access to Recent Apps

TouchSwitcher makes finding your recently used apps super easy by placing them right next to its icon. To switch to an app, just tap its icon on the Touch Bar—it's that simple!

Easy Hiding and Hotkeys

If you're done using it for now and want to hide TouchSwitcher, just hold down its button on the Touch Bar. Oh, and if you'd like to change that hotkey we mentioned earlier? Just click on the Gear icon in the menu—it’s really user-friendly!

Your Efficient App Switcher

In short, TouchSwitcher is an efficient tool made for those who love their MacBook Pro's Touch Bar. It lets you pick which app to use from a convenient menu at the top of your keyboard. This way, switching between apps becomes quicker and feels more natural! If you're ready to give it a try, check out TouchSwitcher here!
