Keyboard-first
Cycle with ⌘Tab, open a persistent switcher with ⌥Tab, or choose your own shortcuts.
A native window switcher for macOS
Switch between windows,
not just apps.
See every top-level window, move with the keyboard, and land on the exact one you need.
Free and open source · macOS 14 or later
Window-level control
The window you want, one gesture away.
Command–Tab normally stops at the application. WindowHop gives each window its own place, with visual previews, native titles, and fast forward, reverse, and arrow-key navigation.
Made for the Mac
Focused, configurable, and keyboard-first.
Visual previews
Optional live snapshots, memory-only caching, polished skeleton states, and stable card geometry.
Window filtering
Include other Spaces, displays, minimized windows, hidden apps, or Picture-in-Picture when useful.
Light and Dark
Semantic AppKit surfaces, native system type, and appearance-aware selection in both modes.
Native Settings
General, Shortcuts, Windows, Appearance, Updates, and About panes — all one size — with one confirmed Restore Defaults action.
Expanded preview
Pause to inspect a larger snapshot inside WindowHop without activating or raising the real window.
Your workflow
Curated defaults. Useful choices.
Normal windows across your visited Spaces and displays are included by default. Optional categories stay opt-in, tab counts stay out of the way, and every preference can return to its documented default.
