Tab switching, reimagined

Visual Tab Switcher

Hold Ctrl, tap Tab to cycle through your browser tabs as full thumbnail cards. See what's on each tab before you land on it. Release to switch. Close tabs you don't need without leaving the switcher.

Cross-Browser Tab Search

Hit Ctrl+/ (or Cmd+Shift+Space) to search every open tab across Safari, Chrome, Edge and Brave at once. Type a few characters, see matching tabs with previews, press Enter. Done.

Window Switcher

Option+Tab flips between windows of the same app with thumbnail previews. Switch to any window or close it right from the preview. Works with every application, not just browsers.

Dock Hover Previews

Hover over any app in your Dock that has multiple windows open to see thumbnail previews of each one. Switch or close directly.

Lightweight, Always-On

Lives in your menu bar. Low memory, low CPU, zero clutter. Configure shortcuts, thumbnail size and supported browsers from one preferences panel.

Stop losing time to tab chaos

Without WimTab

The daily tab struggle

  • Ctrl+Tab cycles in order, not by recency — never lands where you need
  • 40 tabs open? Good luck finding anything in that tiny tab strip
  • Accidentally close tabs when you meant to click them
  • Terminal tabs all look identical — which session was that?
  • Switch browsers and now you're searching two tab bars
  • “I had that tab open somewhere…” (opens a new one instead)

// About

What is WimTab?

WimTab is a visual tab and window switcher for Mac that shows thumbnail previews of every open tab before you switch. Instead of clicking through dozens of tabs or guessing from tiny titles, you see exactly what's on each tab and jump there instantly.

Best Window Switcher for Mac

macOS's built-in Cmd+Tab switches between apps, but what about switching between windows of the same app? WimTab fills this gap with Option+Tab — a window switcher that shows thumbnail previews of every window, letting you switch or close any window without hunting through the Dock.

Best Tab Manager for Mac

If you have dozens of browser tabs open across Safari, Chrome, Edge, or Brave, finding the right one is painful. WimTab's cross-browser tab search lets you search all your tabs at once — type a few characters, see matching tabs with previews, press Enter. Works across all supported browsers simultaneously.

Alt-Tab Alternative for Mac

Coming from Windows? You probably miss Alt-Tab's window previews. WimTab brings that experience to Mac — and goes further with MRU (Most Recently Used) ordering. Your most recent tabs and windows always appear first, so you're never more than one keystroke away from where you just were.

Who is WimTab for?

WimTab is for anyone who keeps 20+ tabs open and loses time hunting for them. Developers, researchers, writers, designers — anyone whose workflow involves multiple browser windows, terminal sessions, or app windows. It also supports iTerm and Terminal, so you can preview and switch between terminal sessions just like browser tabs.
