Use Hot Corners to open Launchie

Hot Corners offer a mouse-only way to reveal Launchie. Instead of relying on ⌘K or the menu bar icon, you can activate Launchie by nudging the cursor into a configurable screen corner.¹

Enable Hot Corners

1. Open Launchie → press ⌘ + , or click Settings.
2. Go to Activation → Hot Corners.
3. Pick one or more corners (Top Left, Top Right, Bottom Left, Bottom Right).
4. Optional: set a delay if you frequently bump the edge accidentally.

Everyday usage

• Move the cursor into an enabled corner and pause for the delay (if any).
• Launchie appears on the current monitor, ready for search or drag-and-drop.

Troubleshooting

• macOS Mission Control appears instead: disable that corner in macOS System Settings → Desktop & Dock → Hot Corners, or assign the Launchie corner to a different edge.
