Free to start — 3 launchers, 1 Stack. Unlock unlimited launchers, Stacks, and more with a one-time AppArgs Pro upgrade. No subscription, ever.
Stop retyping the same flags every time you open an app. AppArgs turns any launch command — incognito windows, browser profiles, project files, custom scripts — into a one-click launcher that lives right in your menu bar.
CUSTOM LAUNCH PARAMETERS, FOR APPS YOU ALREADY USE
Pick from 44+ built-in apps — Chrome, Safari, VS Code, Xcode, iTerm2, Slack, Notion, Docker, Spotify, and more — and toggle exactly the flags you want: Incognito, a specific browser profile, "always open a new window," a folder to jump straight into, an AppleScript command to run. Every option is documented, verified, and shown with a live command preview as you build it. Don't see your app in the catalog? Advanced mode lets you build a launcher for absolutely any Mac app using its own arguments, URL scheme, or AppleScript.
STACKS: YOUR WHOLE WORKSPACE, ONE HOTKEY
Chain launchers into a Stack and open your entire morning setup — Slack, your editor, a terminal in the right folder — with a single keyboard shortcut. Run steps sequentially with your own delays, or all at once in parallel, and optionally have a Stack launch itself automatically every time you log in.
A SPOTLIGHT-STYLE PALETTE FOR EVERYTHING
Hit one global shortcut from anywhere on your Mac and a fast, searchable palette pops up — every launcher and every Stack you've built, one keystroke away.
SHORTCUTS FOR EVERYTHING YOU BUILD
Give any launcher — or any Stack — its own local or global keyboard shortcut. Local shortcuts fire from the AppArgs menu; global ones work system-wide, even when AppArgs isn't in focus.
ORGANIZED YOUR WAY
Group launchers, tag them with colors, and sort manually, alphabetically, or by how often you actually use them.
YOUR SETUP, PORTABLE AND YOURS
Export your entire library — every launcher, every Stack, every shortcut — to a single file, and import it on another Mac in seconds. No account required, ever.
SPEAKS YOUR LANGUAGE
Fully localized in 16 languages — English, Arabic, Spanish, French, German, Turkish, Chinese, Japanese, Hindi, Korean, Portuguese, Dutch, Italian, Russian, Swedish, and Norwegian — including full right-to-left layout for Arabic.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
AppArgs runs fully sandboxed and makes zero network requests — it doesn't even hold the entitlement to talk to the internet. No accounts, no sign-up, no analytics, no tracking. Every launcher, Stack, and shortcut you create stays on your Mac, always.
MADE FOR YOUR MENU BAR
No Dock icon, no clutter, no separate window competing for space — just a fast dropdown that's exactly where you left it. Click, launch, get back to work.
Whether you're a developer juggling a dozen Xcode and Terminal configurations, a researcher who needs three different Chrome profiles open at once, or someone who just wants their morning apps to open themselves — AppArgs gives you a faster, more precise way to start your day.
