What you get

You get quicker file moves, easier app switching, and fewer accidental quits.

Supercharge gives you more direct ways to handle everyday Mac tasks. In Finder, you can copy file paths, move files, send items through AirDrop, or open Terminal from the right-click menu. You can also use Command + X to cut files for moving, making file management more familiar if you previously used Windows.

When you switch apps with Command + Tab, minimized apps can come back into view without you searching for their windows. You can close windows directly from Mission Control and require confirmation before quitting an app to help prevent accidental exits.

You can group Dock icons with spacers, dim hidden apps, and clear all notifications at once. Predefined keyboard shortcuts also let you toggle settings such as Dark Mode and Low Power Mode without opening settings each time.

  • Fewer file-management steps

    You can move files with Command + X and reach file paths, AirDrop, and Terminal through Finder’s right-click menu.

  • Recover minimized windows

    You can bring minimized apps back into view when switching with Command + Tab, rather than hunting for their windows.

  • Avoid accidental quits

    You can require confirmation before an app quits, giving you a chance to catch a mistaken action.

  • Make your Dock clearer

    You can separate apps into groups with spacers and dim hidden apps so their status is easier to recognize.

  • Clear notification clutter

    You can dismiss all notifications at once instead of clearing them individually.

Best for

  • You’ve switched from Windows and miss cutting files with Command + X.
  • You frequently switch between apps with minimized windows.
  • You want quicker access to routine Finder actions and Mac settings.

Skip it if

You probably don’t need it if Finder, app switching, and the Dock already behave the way you want.
