Have needed this for years

In addition to adding shortcut keys, this does what I always wanted to do with the Mac sidebar but never could--create a list (drop down from the menu bar) of my favorites apps and folders WITH THEIR CUSTOM ICONS INTACT, so that you can distinguish between them at a glance. I've searched high and low for this simple, exceptional useful thing. Here it is at last, and for free. Thank you Mr. Vorwieger and team.

Very Useful, Really want additional feature

Works exactly as one would expect. Intuitive and easy to get set up. One feature I would really like is ability to be able to keep the order of my windows when switching to an app using a hotkey. Currently, if the active window and the desktop are seperated by a window, and I HotKey an app that opens in the desktop, the desktop will move to the immediate left of the previously active window, pushing the desktop's prior right window to it's left, forcing me to rearrange the windows back to how I want them. It's minor, but would be a good quality of life optional feature I think.

Take my money, please!

I’ve always used some app or another to make keyboard shortcuts to switch among my most-used apps. I needed a new one, found this FOR FREE!? and it works FLAWLESSLY.

Can you add in-app purchases to allow tips from happy customers? Maybe the “feature” that it would unlock is a big smiley face in the preferences window. :)

Perfect execution. Flawless app. Thank you!
