We built this because we genuinely missed the old Launchpad vibe — quick, clean, and just… there when you need it. macOS 26 changed a lot (some good, some not so much), so we spent seven pretty intense weeks rebuilding the experience we wished still existed.

No heavy features, no endless settings menus. Just smooth keyboard nav, instant type-to-jump, and a layout that automatically feels “right” on whatever screen you’re using. Lots of tiny details that quietly add up.

Hope you enjoy trying it out — and if you spot anything rough, we’re here and listening.

If you’re someone who still misses the original Launchpad and has been searching for a true replacement, I think you’ll feel right at home with LaunchOS.
