v1.0.0 · macOS 13+ · Signed & Notarized
Switchlet is a macOS menu bar app that lets you pick which Browser opens your links per-domain or globally.
What it does
01
Route *.github.com to Chrome Work,
*.youtube.com to Chrome Personal, and the rest to
whatever profile you set as default.
# Rules
*.github.com → Chrome · Work
*.youtube.com → Chrome · Personal
* → Chrome · Work
02
No duplicate accounts, no cloud sync, no browser extensions.
Switchlet reads your existing Chrome and Firefox profile names
from ~/Library/Application Support and shows them
in the menu.
03
Switchlet strips utm_*, fbclid,
gclid, and 30+ other trackers from URLs before they
reach the browser. Your links, without the surveillance.
04
Spotify links open in the Spotify app, Notion in Notion, GitHub in the desktop client. Set per-domain rules to bypass the browser entirely for the apps you live in.
05
Copy multiple links to your clipboard. Trigger Switchlet and it detects every URL. Just pick one and open it with your chosen profile.
How it works
Download the DMG, drag Switchlet into
/Applications. First launch is verified by
Gatekeeper. No special permissions, no shell helpers.
Open
System Settings → Desktop & Dock → Default
web browser
and pick Switchlet. macOS confirms and routes
http(s):// links to it.
Click the menu bar icon, choose a default profile, and add per-domain rules from any page you have open. Switchlet then stays out of your way.
Private by design
No account. No analytics. No network calls. Switchlet reads your browser profile metadata locally, decides which profile should open a link, and hands it off seamlessly.
Free to download and use. Signed, notarized, and small enough to live in your menu bar forever.
