Shrtcut is a radial macOS app switcher, shortcut launcher, link opener, and password filler that opens under your pointer.
Every running app in a ring around your pointer. Hold, aim, release — no dock, no strip.
Default App Switcher · ⇧⌘A
Aim at a wedge, release to switch — or open the ring under your cursor.
Link · open from the ring
“Open a tab and type it.”
Release on a saved link — skip ⌘T and the address bar.
Suggest · presets for popular apps
Keystroke, Text, or Link per app. Or tap Suggest — presets fill the ring.
Each mode has its own global shortcut — App Switcher, Shortcut Launcher, named app sets, and Saved Passwords.
Radial ring of every running app — including full-screen Spaces. Aim, release, you are there.
System, Light, or Dark — match the Mac you’re on.
17 languages
Shrtcut speaks yours. Settings and labels in your language — or match the system.
Available on macOS 14.1 or later
The direct build — window switching and keystroke shortcuts included. A Mac App Store build must run sandboxed, which rules those out. · Privacy policy
To raise another app’s window, move to a full-screen Space, post keystrokes, and fill password fields. Without it the ring still opens but cannot act.
The download here is the direct build, signed and notarised by Apple — the complete app. A Mac App Store build must run in the App Sandbox, which cannot read or raise another app’s windows, move Spaces, or post keystrokes. Window switching, per-app shortcuts and password fill therefore only work in the direct build; a sandboxed edition could still launch apps and open saved links.
In the macOS Keychain, readable only while your Mac is unlocked. Choosing one fills the focused text field when possible; otherwise it copies to the clipboard and clears after 45 seconds.
Yes. The ring opens on the display your pointer is on (and can follow as you move). Picking a full-screen window switches to its Space.
Yes. Settings offers System, Light, or Dark appearance, and 17 languages (or Match the system language). Defaults are System for both.
App Switcher is ⇧⌘A, Shortcut Launcher is ⇧⌘S, Saved Passwords is ⇧⌘P. Launcher sets get their own bindings. Everything is rebindable — clear a binding to turn that mode off.
