Dory - An app switcher for people who can’t remember shortcuts - 1.2.0 is out!

The new version includes many bug fixes, various improvements, and the #1 most requested feature: You can now trigger Dory using a global shortcut - no more needing to hold a modifier key!

The new mode supports:

  • Modifier tap
  • Modifier double tap
  • Modifier(s) + key

Meet Dory - A quick way to cycle through apps without moving your hand from the mouse or keyboard - and without needing to remember any shortcuts.

Click your middle mouse button - or the right Command key if both hands are on the keyboard - and type the first letter of the app’s name.

Find apps using the first letter, middle letters, acronyms, or similar names.

If multiple apps share that letter, just keep tapping it to cycle through them.

You can also press the middle mouse button and start typing the app’s name directly.

Prefer tapping over holding? No problem. With Press Mode, you can open Dory’s sleek UI using a global shortcut.

Dory works right out of the box - and over time, it learns which apps you use most and prioritizes them.

No extra shortcuts.

No setup. Nothing to remember.


It’s currently $3.99 - App Store (One-time purchase. No subscription.)

Also, just a heads-up: the current price won’t last much longer.

If you’ve been thinking about getting Dory, now might be the perfect time.

Can you please make the configuration panel fit the screen of a 13" MacBook Air?

I can’t set a keyboard shortcut since that part is invisible…

Hey Rob, a fix for the screen size issue will be included in the next version.

Looks like a fun app but that price sure didn’t last long!. It’s now $9.99. I was willing to ‘bite’ for the lower price—reluctant for the higher. I already have Alfred as my app launcher and the muscle memory to go with it.

It actually lasted 65 days at $3.99 (and was completely free for the first 3 days)

Please update to the latest version and let me know if you’re still experiencing any issues.

Fair enough. I was counting from the time I first saw here. . must have missed it. Sorry.
