Free for macOS 15+

Your apps in a wheel,
right under your cursor.

RedialMenu lives in your menu bar. Press a hotkey and a circular wheel of your apps appears under the pointer. Glide, release, switch — a faster, more visual alternative to Tab.

🍎 macOS 15+ ⚡ Apple Silicon & Intel 🦅 Swift 6 · SwiftUI
RedialMenu — a circular wheel of running apps arranged around the cursor

Three steps. No aiming.

Reach any app with a quick flick of the wrist — no hunting through the Dock or cycling a long list.

1

Hold

Press your trigger key — the fn / 🌐 Globe key, or Space.

2

Move

Glide the mouse toward the app you want. Its slice of the wheel lights up.

3

Release

Let go and RedialMenu brings that app straight to the front. Instantly.

See it in action

Hold your shortcut and the wheel appears under the cursor. Each app gets a number — tap it to jump straight there, no aiming needed.

Hold Space, then tap 19 — or glide and release.

Built for speed

Everything you need to switch and launch apps without breaking your flow.

🎯

Radial app wheel

Your apps arranged in a circle around the cursor — pick by hover-and-release, click, or keyboard.

🔀

Two wheel modes

Show all running apps for fast switching, or pin favorites to fixed user-defined slots.

⌨️

Flexible trigger

Use the fn / 🌐 key, Space, or set your own. Tap 19 to switch instantly — and every bit of it is optional in Settings.

🟢

Live indicators

See which apps are already open and how many windows each one has at a glance.

🔍

Menu-bar dropdown

Instant search, Recent & Pinned strips, drag-to-pin, and open or quit apps in place.

Glassmorphism UI

A polished panel with spring animations that adapts to Light and Dark mode.

Install in seconds

No App Store needed. Download, drag, done.

1

Download the DMG

Grab the latest RedialMenu.dmg from the download button.

2

Drag to Applications

Open the DMG and drag RedialMenu into your Applications folder.

3

Launch & allow

Open it from Applications and grant Accessibility permission when prompted.

⬇ Download RedialMenu

macOS may warn the app is from an unidentified developer — right-click → Open on first launch. If macOS says it's “damaged”, that's just Gatekeeper on an unsigned download. Remove the quarantine flag once:

xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/RedialMenu.app

Opening it the first time

RedialMenu is safe, but it isn't signed with a paid Apple Developer ID, so macOS asks you to confirm once. You only do this on the first launch.

Double-click to open

Open RedialMenu from your Applications folder. macOS shows a warning and blocks it the first time — that's expected for unsigned apps.

Go to Privacy & Security

Open the Apple menu () → System SettingsPrivacy & Security, then scroll down to the Security section.

Click “Open Anyway”

You'll see “RedialMenu was blocked”. Click Open Anyway and authenticate with Touch ID or your password.

Confirm once more

In the dialog shown here, click Open Anyway again. RedialMenu launches and won't ask again.

Prefer the Terminal? One command

Skip the prompts entirely by removing the quarantine flag:

xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/RedialMenu.app

If it ever says “damaged”

That's the same Gatekeeper block on an unsigned download — the Terminal command above fixes it. RedialMenu is not actually damaged.

Private by design

We are not collecting your data. RedialMenu runs entirely on your Mac — no tracking, no analytics, no accounts.

🔒

No data collection

RedialMenu doesn't gather, store, or sell any personal information. Your app list and usage never leave your device.

📡

No tracking or analytics

There are no trackers, telemetry, or third-party SDKs. The app makes no network calls to phone home.

💻

Everything stays local

Settings and preferences are saved only on your Mac. No sign-in and no internet connection required to use it.

Accessibility permission is used solely to switch and launch your apps on this Mac — nothing is sent anywhere.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you might wonder before downloading.

Is RedialMenu safe to use?

Yes. RedialMenu collects no data, has no trackers or analytics, and makes no network calls. Everything runs locally on your Mac. The macOS warning on first launch is only because the app isn't signed with a paid Apple Developer ID — not because anything is wrong with it.

Why does macOS say the app “can't be verified” or is “damaged”?

That's Gatekeeper reacting to an unsigned download, not a real problem. Open it via System Settings → Privacy & Security → “Open Anyway”, or run xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/RedialMenu.app in Terminal once. See the “Opening it the first time” section above.

Does it work on Intel Macs?

Yes. RedialMenu ships as a universal build for both Apple Silicon (M-series) and Intel Macs, and requires macOS 15 or later.

What's the default shortcut, and can I change it?

The default trigger is Space (Control + Space). You can change it any time in Settings, or use the fn / 🌐 Globe key. While the wheel is open you can also tap 19 to jump straight to a slot.

Can I hide the number badges or turn off the 1–9 shortcuts?

Yes. In Settings you can independently hide the number badges, disable number-key switching, and toggle “Instant switch” for the fastest, animation-free app switching. Everything is configurable to your taste.

Why does it need Accessibility permission?

It's used only to detect your global shortcut and bring apps to the front — purely local actions. No keystrokes or data are recorded or sent anywhere.

How do I uninstall it?

Quit RedialMenu from the menu bar, then drag RedialMenu from your Applications folder to the Bin. That's it — no leftover background services.
