CMD+TAB is my favorite shortcut, right behind CMD+C & V. This might take some getting use to but could be a nice productivity-booster for those switching between apps frequently.
Ben Tossell
@rrhoover cmd+shift+spacebar MUST be the top shortcut... otherwise, did you even emoji? 🤔
gerasim_sergey
@bentossell @rrhoover yeah, I don't specifically but to turn this feature off which is so annoying
Rodolfo Rosini
@rrhoover my favorite is shift+alt+cmd+v (paste without formatting)

I'd pay a lot for this if it solved my main issue with the built in CMD-Tab menu: I have multiple Chrome personas always running, each in their own mac space, but CMD-Tab only shows "Chrome", not "Chrome - Work", "Chrome - Personal", etc. The ability to switch between *specific* spaces, not just apps, would be killer.
gerasim_sergey
@miles_matthias I added it to the todo list, but it is more of a management and switching between Windows, let's make contact via mail, this is the following something I planned to work (management and switching between windows)
gerasim_sergey
@miles_matthias >>> The ability to switch between *specific* spaces, not just apps, would be killer. By the way, pay attention on the option "each workspace have a separate list of applications"
gerasim_sergey
@miles_matthias Are you sure that you should buy right now? I think you should first try and decide whether you need the app I think everyone needs to try any app or product before you buy, or wait for the sale, it is fair to customers and developers

The numbered tabs especially can make a difference (just like on Alfred). UI-wise I hope to see a space between icons—since this currently is really narrow. Ideally make this a setting too. Oh, and saw a little typo on the settings page (Hide applictaion names :)). But, a pretty nifty, little app!
gerasim_sergey
@eelcojellema Thank You very much, wrote it down in the task list - fix soon, now collect feedback. >>> The numbered tabs especially can make a difference (just like on Alfred) What do You mean?
Mubashar Iqbal
As a web developer, I'm tabbing between windows all day long. Ran the trial for about 30 minutes, before paying for a license. Great job!
gerasim_sergey
@mubashariqbal Thank you, I do not understand about the trial, when launched, the application reports the number of days remaining and then you can work
Mike Coutermarsh
@mubashariqbal I must try this now!
Mubashar Iqbal
@gerasim_sergey Nothing wrong with the trial, I just mean't after using it for 30 minutes, I wanted to give you my money! I knew I would want to keep it after the trial. 👍 💪
gerasim_sergey
@mubashariqbal look at the website, I posted your comment there Thank You
gerasim_sergey
@mubashariqbal I'm really really looking forward to tips and requests from users, because they want to make the app perfect.
Michael John McClain
CMD + Shift & CMD + Space are my go to shortcuts for changing apps. I'll try it but I don't see how anything can be easier than that.
gerasim_sergey
@mjmcclain Not sure I understand the question, but You should definitely try the app. Please tell us how you configured MacOS to use CMD + Shift & CMD + Space
Marcel Panse
I use Hyperswitch for OSX, which is free. How do they compare?
gerasim_sergey
@marcelpanse Hyperswitch - window switcher, command-tab plus is an application switcher, not all (like me) are switching between windows. command-tab plus replaces the cmd-tab hotkey, but has some differences
gerasim_sergey
@marcelpanse for example shows only not hidden applications and applications with only one work space... Really try on each monitor or desktop You have your list of apps... Separated Workspaces ;-)
gerasim_sergey
And one more things :-) In the next few days I am engaged in adding new features and fixing bugs, but I get a lot requests adding features or developing a new application that helps manage the windows on Mac. So I begin beta testing a new app - MaxSnap, perhaps some features will be added in Command-Tab Plus, If someone wants to participate in the beta testing of the new application - welcome to http://eepurl.com/cuQgW9
gerasim_sergey
Hello from Ukraine, I wanted to show You my new app - Command-Tab Plus for macOS. It helps you to get rid of the chaos that happens when there are too many apps running at the same time. Please tell me your opinion about the idea. The app has many options but the most important for me here is "Command-tab Plus hides the icons of all inactive (hidden) apps" If someone wants to support the development of a product that you can use the code PRODUCTHUNT35
Gijs Nelissen
@gerasim_sergey hi man. Typo in appearance (applictaion). Also any plans to support multiple windows of same app ? Like CMD+~ ?
gerasim_sergey
@digitalbase Yes I plan to implement it, I'm just looking for how to do it easily and conveniently (organically), I'd like this feature and many users asked for it. I just have not yet invented as it is beautiful to implement, only came up with a new app... May be just to implement the switch between windows when pressing cmd-` What do you think?
gerasim_sergey
@igor_march привет, спасибо большое, куда ты еще писал? мне пришло уведомление но нет ни в твиттерре ни в скайпе
gerasim_sergey
@digitalbase I added the ability to switch between Windows, this functionality is available in beta https://dl.devmate.com/com.serge...
gerasim_sergey
Sorry for my English, maybe I write not clear, and I was asked now from many users "that they can display in each work space a separate (own) a list of applications... ***MAIN IDEA of application - EACH WORKSPACE HAS ITS OWN LIST OF APPLICATIONS***
gerasim_sergey
Hi all, I'm preparing a huge update and invite everyone to participate in the beta testing. Join to Command-Tab Plus Beta http://eepurl.com/cvpRm5 I plan to add many features. For example I have implemented a simple SWITCH BETWEEN WINDOWS of the selected application DOWNLOAD BETA https://dl.devmate.com/com.serge...
gerasim_sergey
Hi again, I see the statistics interesting thing, it turns out, not everyone knows how to install the application from the website, tomorrow I will take extensive video and now you can look at my other app https://youtu.be/5hkvfyqMh3k
A.Fairiz
I read the product description and I knew that this is something I need. Didn't even bother to go for the free trial. I went ahead with the 'Buy Now' button.
gerasim_sergey
@cleavatron Really thank you very much for supporting an indie developer and my future apps
A.Fairiz
@gerasim_sergey You hit the nail on this one. I love this app to bits. Before this I'm using uBar as my task switcher but it always ended up cluttering its task bar when I have too many stuff opened. And that extra task bar annoys me because I'm working on a 13-inch Macbook. Your Command Tab Plus is just perfect.
gerasim_sergey
@cleavatron Thank you very much, I have many ideas for the development of applications towards me, I begin beta testing + one more app, I have a macbook air 13, me too, this problem is known (because I made this app)

Seems like the coupon code "PRODUCTHUNT35" isn't valid any longer?
gerasim_sergey
@_traceroute The action and the validity of the coupon 24 hours after posting on ProductHunt, I just don't have time to update the website. Please send me an email from the site

Guys, the comment/testimonial section on your website is broken and the words are getting truncated. Something you might want to look into...

@thepenwoman Thank you very much, I'll try to fix it, I'm just using the tools ProductHunt to publish links and text from ProductHunt

Very cool app. I love the idea of quickly selecting the app by its number rather than repeatedly hammering the Tab key. I also love that the switched can show up on a screen with the mouse pointer and not only on the main screen. A couple of suggestions: 1. Does it really make sense to start numbering with the currently active app? I think switching to the currently running app is rather moot. Perhaps it's better to skip the active app and add numbers form the next app onward. 2. Is there a way to make the app numbers look more subtle? Black background with thick white boarders are a bit extreme. Also the numbers are not centered inside the circles on my Mac. 3. I agree with some folks who suggested more spacing between the app icons. 4. Have you thought of allowing the switch to stay visible without having to keep the CMD key pressed? Perhaps after a while? This would make hitting the numbers a bit easier. This would be a deviation from the native app switcher, but could be a setting as well. 5. A bigger area to explore, letting the users assign permanent numbers or even letters to certain apps. Perhaps in combination with #4 to avoid conflicts with other CMD+[ ] shortcuts. Say I want to assign C to Chrome. F to Finder, etc.

@michal_subel >>> A couple of suggestions: >>.1. Does it really make sense to start numbering with the currently active app? I think switching to the currently running app is rather moot. Perhaps it's better to skip the active app and add numbers form the next app onward. I long could not solve how to do it better, but left the numbering with 1 for the active application for two reasons - is more logical and not to make confusion - that you were able to quickly return to choose the first (active) application >>> 2. Is there a way to make the app numbers look more subtle? Black background with thick white boarders are a bit extreme. Also the numbers are not centered inside the circles on my Mac. - disable drawing of the border - placement setting numbers, I plan to implement in the near future >>> 3. I agree with some folks who suggested more spacing between the app icons. - Yes, of course >>> 4. Have you thought of allowing the switch to stay visible without having to keep the CMD key pressed? Perhaps after a while? This would make hitting the numbers a bit easier. This would be a deviation from the native app switcher, but could be a setting as well. I agree, it will be convenient, and it has asked one of the users, besides that idea I'm going to use in another application >>> 5. A bigger area to explore, letting the users assign permanent numbers or even letters to certain apps. Perhaps in combination with #4 to avoid conflicts with other CMD+[ ] shortcuts. Say I want to assign C to Chrome. F to Finder, etc. Great idea!!! I understand the point, I will implement it, it is true to say that not once (in the next version), as I need to fix some bugs, and the implementation of the assignment .... I need to think how to implement it simply and beautifully
gerasim_sergey
@michal_subel I see that you have interesting ideas and you understand the essence of the application, maybe You want to participate in beta testing? I think I should split the app into two branches, stable and beta with new features Here is the link to sign up for new beta versions http://eepurl.com/cvpRm5
Michal Subel
@gerasim_sergey Thanks. I would definitely like to participate in beta testing. One more thing that I noticed now during testing, notification badges are missing from the app icons. The number of unread emails, or IM app notifications, etc. Is that planned as well?
gerasim_sergey
@michal_subel thank you, I do not think about it, I wrote it down but I can't promise that implement it quickly
Vlad Pekh
One license per one computer, right? Or I can use one license on both? I have iMac and MacBook Pro...
gerasim_sergey
@vlad_pekh both 1 license can be activated on 2 computers
Kasper Mackenhauer Jacobsen
I really wish there was a demo video/gif for my lazy side. Will have to see if I remember this tomorrow when I'm at my laptop again 😄 Sounds good though!
gerasim_sergey
@dinoshauer Yes you are right, probably had to make a video or gif. maybe tomorrow, but I'm not an expert in video and I have to implement all asked for new users. Good evening..
Noah Passalacqua
I would suggest adding the tilde action to go backwards in the list when it is active. But overall great app love the hidden apps feature.
Manny
@gerasim_sergey damn did I miss the sale?
Manny
@gerasim_sergey Great thanks, my banner had gone white and I thought the sale had ended. Purchased! For 2 reasons, one I've been looking for something like this for quite some time, secondly, your activity here answering questions and feed back. I'll continue to support developers like yourself and put shun those who just build and abandon. Happy Holidays!
gerasim_sergey
@mannyorduna thank You for supporting the development, and I would like You to see in the beta testers https://cl.ly/2e2K172N2232 Happy Holidays!
Doureyd Khelalef
Nice job! I bought a license, I'm only missing the CMD+Q shortcut to quit apps.
