LaunchBar is a keyboard-driven productivity utility that provides instant access to applications, files, documents, and web searches from anywhere on your Mac. Users activate it with a single customizable keyboard shortcut and type abbreviated queries to quickly launch apps, find files, access contacts, manage clipboard history, and trigger system actions without touching the mouse. It's especially popular among power users and professionals who spend significant time at the keyboard and value workflow efficiency. LaunchBar combines the functionality of a launcher, file finder, and command palette into one elegant tool.

1 suggestionGood news: LaunchBar has full native Apple Silicon support. According to the doesiarm project, LaunchBar already supports Apple Silicon natively. Objective Development continues to actively maintain the app—the latest version (6.24) was released as recently as late January 2025 with bug fixes and improvements. You can update to the latest version directly from Objective Development's website or via Homebrew. No action needed beyond keeping your current installation up to date; your LaunchBar will run natively and efficiently on Apple Silicon Macs.
