Witch ReviewDevelopment has ceased; tech support doesn't exist - Version: 2.0.2, 7/15/2009 01:02AM PST

Development stopped on this product in November 2008. Have tried to email tech support several times over the last month in regards to bug fixes -- ZERO response from the company. Cannot recommend this product at all.

Witch ReviewDoesn't work with Spaces; slow/nonresponsive tech support - Version: 2.0.2, 6/20/2009 11:03AM PST

scotty321
Great product but doesn't work properly with Spaces.

When you use Witch's keyboard shortcut to cycle through ALL of your applications when Spaces is active, Witch won't show you all of your applications from the OTHER spaces. It shows you SOME of your applications from the other spaces, but not ALL of your applications from the other spaces. You actually have to switch over to that other space first and THEN use the keyboard shortcut to cycle through those applications that are located in that space. But then the same problem crops up over there -- the applications from the PREVIOUS space that you were in don't all show up again.

Emailed tech support about this issue 2 days ago and haven't heard back yet. Will consider upgrading to a better review if we hear back from tech support or get this issue resolved in a future update.

This is not free anymore, and is not USD$9.99 as listed above. It is €9.99 (Euro, in case that char did not render).

Witch ReviewWorks great but now costs money - Version: 2.0, 6/11/2008 12:45PM PST

This is functionality that should be part of OS X by default.

Everyone has to eat but it's annoying that this software went shareware for $9.99 like every other piece of Mac software you need.

Totally LOVE the switching.
Leopard now allows for files to be dropped on program icons in its task switcher (and actually opening them with said app ;) , I'd be very grateful if witch followed suit :)

Kind regards, and lots of thanks!

Witch ReviewSweet! - Version: 1.0.2, 5/29/2007 02:30PM PST

To get the Windoze-like window switcher experience (alt+tab on windows), you’ll have to change the default "sort windows by " pref to "window activity", not "applicaton activity".

The only non-sweet thing about it is that the switcher overlay window still needs some graphic finishing ... the icons look somewhat pixeled on my screen (I got a lot of windows open).

It’s perfect otherwise, I can feel no delay on a 2GB Intel Mac.

I’ll certainly donate for that.
