FOR MACOS · WINDOWS-STYLE TASKBAR

A taskbar,
just the way you know it.

The Windows taskbar and Start menu you know, on your Mac. Kitty Task is a macOS taskbar that shows your running apps and windows at a glance and switches, minimizes and restores with a click. It never changes the Dock or other apps' windows.

THREE THINGS YOU KNOW

The screens you used on Windows,
right on your Mac.

The taskbar, the Start menu and the window list, with the look and behavior you remember. All free.

9:41

Taskbar FREE

Running apps and windows appear as buttons. Pin them, drag to reorder, and turn on a quick-launch area.

9:41

Start menu FREE

App search, pinned apps, recent items and all apps. One ⌃Esc opens it.

9:41

Window list FREE

Point at a button and that app's windows appear as a list, so you can jump straight to the one you want.

The screens are design mockups to explain the features, not real app screenshots.

SWITCH WITH ONE CLICK

One button to
switch, minimize and restore.

Click a running app's button and it does what fits the moment: bring a single window forward, minimize it when it is already in front, restore it when minimized, or open the window list when there are several.

KEYS YOU REMEMBER

Use the shortcuts
you remember.

A Mac has no standalone Windows key, so ⌃ and ⌥ combinations stand in for it. Turn them on or off in Settings; they were chosen to stay clear of other apps.

A taskbar on every display

Each display gets its own taskbar with the windows on that display.

GOOD TO KNOW

Frequently asked questions

Things worth knowing before you install.

Does Kitty Task replace the Dock?

No. It does not change or turn off the Dock, and it never touches other apps' window frames. It adds a separate taskbar at the bottom (or top) of the screen.

Does it work without permissions?

Yes. Without the Accessibility permission it runs in a limited mode that shows one button per app instead of per window. Window-level switching and the window list work once you turn the permission on.

How long is the Pro free trial?

Seven days, once per Mac. Start it in the Pro tab of Settings. When it ends, the free features keep working.

Which Macs does it run on?

On Apple Silicon and Intel Macs running macOS 13 or later. Window previews (Pro) need macOS 14 or later. A release is being prepared; the download will be announced here and on the updates page.
