About:
SwitchKey is a macOS utility that enables per-application keyboard layout switching. It automatically changes the input source based on the currently active application, eliminating the need to manually switch layouts when moving between different programs.

Key Features:

Automatic keyboard layout switching per application
System-wide hotkey support for manual switching
Lightweight background operation with minimal resource usage
Simple configuration through the menu bar interface

Use Cases:

Developers working with multiple programming languages and keyboard layouts
Multilingual users switching between different language input methods
Writers and content creators managing multiple language workflows

Alternatives:

Keyboard Layout Switcher – More complex configuration but offers additional automation features
macOS native input source switching – Manual switching required, lacks per-application automation
