BrowserFairy is a macOS app that lets users route links to different web browsers based on customizable rules, rather than relying on a single system-wide default browser. It supports flexible matching by domain, URL path, query parameters, and the application the link originated from (Slack vs. Mail, for example). Users can assign work URLs to Chrome, personal URLs to Safari, and so on, and the app also includes a global keyboard shortcut (⌘⌥B) to launch any installed browser or profile instantly. It runs as a lightweight menu-bar agent with no continuous background polling and is available free with 3 rules or as a paid Pro tier with unlimited rules. A native Apple Silicon build has been confirmed running on Macs in the Rosetta Check community.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionBrowserFairy has shipped a native Apple Silicon build, and a community member has already confirmed it running natively. The simplest way to get it is to open the Mac App Store on your M-series Mac and look for BrowserFairy — if your copy is from the App Store, the Store will offer an update to the native version. If you obtained BrowserFairy directly from the vendor website rather than the App Store, visit browserfairy.com and re-download the current installer, which will be the native Universal Binary on Apple Silicon. After installing, your rules, preferences, and browser shortcuts will remain intact. You should see improved performance and battery life compared to running the Intel build under Rosetta.
