FAQ
Does it support multiple displays?
Yes. TabFlow can switch to windows on other displays.
Why are there no window thumbnails?
Thumbnails need Screen Recording. Switching still works with app icons and window titles.
Does TabFlow collect usage data?
Only local statistics are recorded when enabled: the application and local time for completed switches. Data stays on your Mac and can be exported or cleared.
Does TabFlow replace Mission Control or window tiling?
No. TabFlow only switches existing windows. It does not resize or arrange them.
