V2.2 On the Mac App Store
09/08/12 18:25 Filed in: Updates
What’s New in Version 2.2
- Music Tab. Yes, TabLauncher is also a music player. Try it. It uses very few CPU (much less than iTunes)
- Small indication to let the user know where are the tabs when “Auto Hide” is enabled. (Try it at, Preferences / Settings / Animations / at the bottom)
- Added Japanese localization.
- Minor bug fixes.
TabLauncher lite V2.1.1 was rejected
24/03/12 01:01
Apple rejected our “lite” version again.
Because Apple doesn't allow "trial" versions. Even though this is not a trial.
The “lite” version is actually fully functional, there are no banners, no time limit.
Anyone can use it for free for as long as they like.
We believe many users won’t even need more than 3 tabs.
Actually we suggest removing one of the initial tabs and experiment with the “special tabs”.
So, we have given up updating the free version on the Mac App Store.
Sorry about this Snow Leopard users, the free version on the Mac App Store will continue to require Lion.
Anyway, we have just added the download button on the home page, so feel free to download it.

What’s New in Version 2.1
Unfortunately it’s impossible to implement a decent way to bring a specific window to front, if it’s not on the current desktop (mission control’s space).
Also the control we have over “mission control” is very limited.
Apple has been removing the control developers used to have over the system. If they continue to block us even more, I fear applications like TabLauncher will no longer work in the future.
Let's hope the guys at Apple realize that the community has much to offer, if they let us!
We are sorry, but for now clicking on window icons won’t work on all cases.
We hope this can be fixed in the future.
- Window preview. Placing the mouse pointer over an app currently on your tabs will display the app's window preview.
- Added "Special Tab Windows". Shows a small preview of all applications windows. You can also set to display only off screen or minimized windows.
- Badge on the Mail application.
- Improved Performance.
- Other improvements and bug fixes.
