SpaceSwitcher

Connect to DesktopRenamer's SpaceAPI
Add custom rules to each space	Different docks for each space

SpaceSwitcher is a macOS workspace enhancer that lets you control which app and dock to show in each workspace. Especially for apps that you have assigned to all desktops.

📦 Installation

Requires macOS 13.0 Ventura or above.

1. If you haven't, install DesktopRenamer, which provides necessary SpaceAPI to inform SpaceSwitcher the current space info
2. Start SpaceAPI in DesktopRenamer Settings → General
3. Download the SpaceSwitcher from Releases
4. Drag the app to the Applications folder
5. All set!

Because I do NOT have an Apple developer account for the app releases, you may receive alerts such as "Developer is not verified".

To resolve this, go to System Settings → the bottom of Privacy & Security → Open SpaceSwitcher.

💡 How to Use

Here is an example:

• My Zen browser has four workspaces with the shortcut Control + Shift + Number
• In SpaceSwitcher/Rules, I add the rule of "simulate shortkey" for each macOS space
• So when I switch to a space, Zen browser can automatically switch to the corresponding workspace

🛜 SpaceAPI

To get the current space's information, an extra app DesktopRenamer is required. You can download it here.

After downloading DesktopRenamer, you need to turn on SpaceAPI in Settings → General.
