Three Steps to Window Mastery
Macscope's intelligent design means you'll be productive from the first shortcut press.
A single customizable hotkey (⌥ + Tab by default) opens Macscope. Quick tap for instant switching, hold for the full interface.
Start typing any part of a window title, app name, or even website URL. Live previews show exactly what you'll get before you switch.
When your search narrows to one result, Macscope automatically activates it. No Enter key needed—just think, type, and you're there.
Why Default Tools Fall Short
macOS gives you powerful tools, but they weren't designed for today's multi-window, multi-tab workflows. Here's what breaks down:
Got 15 apps open? Enjoy pressing Tab 14 times to reach what you need. Macscope shows everything at once with intelligent search.
"Was that document in the Safari window or Chrome?" Stop guessing. Macscope's live previews show exactly what's in each window.
Windows scattered across a massive space with tiny thumbnails. Macscope organizes everything in a clean, searchable grid.
Hundreds of tabs across multiple browsers, invisible to system tools. Macscope treats tabs as first-class citizens you can search and switch to directly.
Windows hiding on different monitors with no easy way to find them. Macscope shows all windows from all displays in one unified view.
Each wrong switch breaks your flow. Macscope's visual previews and smart search ensure you land exactly where you intended, every time.
Built for Power Users
Every feature is designed to save time and reduce cognitive load, from keyboard-first navigation to adaptive learning.
Tap your shortcut (⌥+Tab by default) for instant switching to your last app. Hold for 0.25 seconds to open the full interface. Perfect for rapid back-and-forth workflows.
Pro tip: Lock your two most-used apps for lightning-fast toggling between editor and browser.
Type any part of a window title, app name, or URL. Search works across all open windows, browser tabs from multiple browsers, and installed applications.
Smart matching: "fig" finds Figma, "Configuration Settings", and "fig.io" tabs.
See real-time, updating previews of every window. No more guessing which document is which or landing in the wrong browser tab.
Privacy first: Previews are generated locally. Nothing is stored or transmitted.
Lock up to two applications for instant toggling. When locked, quick switch ignores recent history and jumps directly between your chosen apps.
Workflow optimization: Perfect for code-preview cycles or design-development workflows.
Macscope learns your patterns and prioritizes frequently-used windows. The more you use it, the better it gets at predicting what you need.
Smart sorting: Combines frequency, recency, and usage patterns for optimal results.
Seamlessly manage windows across multiple monitors. Show on all displays simultaneously or follow your mouse cursor. Move apps to active display automatically.
Workflow aware: Switch display focus with Shift+Tab without touching your mouse.
Your Tabs, Finally Visible
Modern workflows happen across dozens of browser tabs. Macscope makes them as accessible as any native window.
You type:
"github issue"
Macscope finds:
Live tab previews coming soon via browser extension
Never Touch Your Mouse
Every action in Macscope is optimized for keyboard navigation. Learn once, use forever—no complex chord combinations to memorize.
Customizable global shortcut
Arrow keys or Tab to cycle
Works on any selected item
Lock apps for quick switching
Multi-monitor workflows
Set a comfortable hold duration (0.15-1.0s) to perfect your tap vs. hold timing. Most users find 0.25s ideal for quick switching without accidental triggers.
Start with unique words from window titles. "invoice" finds your accounting app faster than typing "Excel". Macscope learns which results you choose most often.
Lock your two most-used apps for instant toggling. Perfect combinations: Code editor + Browser, Design tool + Documentation, Terminal + Text editor.
Roadmap & Coming Soon
Macscope is actively evolving. Here's what we're working on to make window management even more powerful.
Live previews of browser tab content, just like native windows. See exactly what's in each tab before switching.
Select multiple windows and tabs at once for batch operations. Perfect for organizing your workspace quickly.
Intelligent window management to position windows in any corner or area of your screen with keyboard shortcuts.
Automatically group related windows and tabs into contextual workspaces based on your workflow patterns.
Search not just window titles, but actual content within documents and web pages for deeper navigation.
Select text or visual elements anywhere on your screen to create searchable pins. Navigate directly to specific content within windows.
