A macOS utility that automatically raises and focuses a window when the mouse hovers over it, with a configurable delay. It also offers an optional mouse-warp feature when switching apps via cmd-tab or cmd-grave.
Use cases
- focus follows mouse on macOS
- auto raise windows on hover
- warp mouse to center of activated window with cmd-tab
- enable x11-style focus behavior on a Mac
- reduce clicking needed to switch windows
When to choose
- you want focus-follows-mouse behavior on macOS
- you prefer keyboard task switching with mouse warping
- you want a lightweight menu bar utility
When to avoid
- you are on Windows or Linux
- you need per-app focus rules beyond the provided options
- you rely on undocumented private APIs being stable (experimental focus-first mode)
