How to Switch Between Apps Faster Using Just the Keyboard

Using only your keyboard to switch apps sounds ideal—but most people are still stuck with ⌘ + Tab.

Assignee offers a faster, cleaner alternative.

Step-by-Step Setup

1. Set your Assignee shortcut (e.g. Ctrl + Tab)
2. Assign keys: D = VSCode, S = Slack, T = Terminal
3. Press Ctrl + Tab → key. Instant switch.

Why It’s Faster

• No Enter required
• No cycling past icons
• No visual scanning

Final Thought

If your fingers never leave home row, neither should your workflow. Assignee keeps it all tight.
