A Swift Package that adds 'Launch at Login' functionality to macOS apps with a simple API and SwiftUI toggle component. It supports macOS 10.13+ using SMLoginItemSetEnabled on older systems and SMAppService on macOS 13+, working with both sandboxed and App Store apps.

Use cases

  • add launch at login to my mac app
  • make my app start automatically on login
  • swiftui toggle for launch at login
  • app store compatible login item for sandboxed mac app
  • backwards compatible launch on startup for macOS 10.13

When to choose

  • your macOS app targets versions older than macOS 13
  • you want a simple, App Store-compatible launch-at-login implementation
  • you want a ready-made SwiftUI toggle for the setting

When to avoid

  • your app targets macOS 13 or later (use LaunchAtLogin-Modern instead)
  • you need launch-at-login on non-macOS platforms
