Features

  • Choose how your apps look

    Switch between Classic, Watch, Tiles and Library views. The same app catalog stays available while you choose the presentation that suits your screen and browsing habits.

  • Start typing, find your app

    Search by an app’s displayed name, file name or bundle identifier. Search results include apps organized inside folders, so you do not have to remember where you put them.

  • Group related apps into folders

    Create a folder by grouping app icons, then name it for the way you work. Add or remove apps, change their order inside the folder and dissolve the group without moving or deleting the actual applications.

  • Browse by what an app does

    Library view groups apps into categories such as productivity, communication, creative work and development. You can filter by category and change an app’s category when a different group makes more sense to you.

  • A size and theme that suit your screen

    Choose small, medium or large icons and use a light, dark or system-matched appearance. The grid adapts its rows and columns to the available screen area, including inside folders.

  • Open the launcher without breaking your flow

    Choose an F1–F12 shortcut with optional modifiers to open the launcher, then use arrows and Enter to select an app. Launchpad Classic opens on the display under your pointer; an optional trackpad pinch can also show or hide it on supported hardware.

Button Launcher

Your keys. Your actions.

Turn the function row into a set of actions for the way you use your Mac. Assign F1–F12 to apps, folders, websites, Shortcuts and everyday controls, with different assignments for different apps.

Features

  • Your everyday actions, one key away

    Assign an F-key to open an application, reveal a folder in Finder or visit a website in your default browser. You can also run a named Apple Shortcut from the same row.

  • A different setup for each app

    Create an app-specific profile that becomes active when that app is in front. Unassigned keys inherit your general profile, so you can change only the commands that need to be different.

  • Record the shortcuts you already use

    Record a keyboard combination and assign it to a function key. Button Launcher sends that combination to the active app, making frequently used commands easier to reach.

  • Screen, sound and playback controls

    Choose actions for screen brightness, volume, mute and music playback. Add Mission Control, Spotlight, the desktop or the macOS screenshot toolbar to keep common system actions close at hand.

  • Give your keyboard a different sound

    Choose a keyboard sound, instrument or effect and preview it before turning it on. Adjust its volume and choose whether key releases make a sound too.

  • Let an assistant help arrange your keys

    The optional local AI connector lets supported assistants read and update key assignments, profiles and presets. You control whether that access is enabled; the connector changes settings without executing the assigned actions.
