About:
CmdTap enhances the macOS Command+Tab application switcher by allowing you to assign custom keyboard shortcuts to minimize, hide, or close the currently active application. This utility streamlines window management for power users who prefer keeping their hands on the keyboard. It provides a seamless way to integrate advanced window control actions directly into the native switcher interface.
Key Features:
  • Assign custom shortcuts to minimize, hide, or close apps
  • Integrates with the native macOS Command+Tab interface
  • Supports Intel-based macOS workflows
Use Cases:
  • Quickly minimizing background apps without reaching for the mouse
  • Streamlining workflow by hiding specific apps instantly via keyboard
  • Managing window clutter during multitasking sessions
Alternatives:
  • BetterTouchTool – Offers broader window management and automation features but with a steeper learning curve
  • Rectangle – Focuses on window snapping and positioning rather than switcher integration
