Switch Windows
Switch Windows lists every open window across every application. Each row shows the window’s own title with its application underneath, so two browser windows are told apart by what is in them.
Actions
Section titled “Actions”| Action | Shortcut |
|---|---|
| Switch to Window | ↵ |
| Close Window | ⌘⌫ |
Close sends a polite close request, the same as clicking the window’s close button. It does not kill the process.
Platform support
Section titled “Platform support”| Platform | Works | Requires |
|---|---|---|
| Linux (X11) | yes | nothing |
| Linux (Wayland) | no | Wayland has no way for an app to list other windows |
| macOS | yes | Accessibility permission |
| Windows | yes | nothing extra |
Where it is unavailable, the command still appears but shows Window Switching Unavailable rather than an empty list.
On Linux, window icons come from the window itself when the app does not match an installed application.
