Organize apps with Spaces
Create dedicated spaces and assign folders or apps to multiple Spaces.
Launchie Spaces let you build separate workspaces for different contexts (work, personal, gaming, etc.). Each Space acts as its own grid, but you can reuse the same app or folder across multiple Spaces without duplicating it.1
Create or manage a Space
- Open Launchie and click the Spaces footer chip (+ icon).
- Name the Space (for example “Work”).
- Pick a color to quickly distinguish it in the footer.
- Drag apps or folders into the Space from the main grid or via the context menu.
Add apps on the fly
- Footer chips: drag any icon onto a Space chip in the footer to instantly add it.
- Context menu: right-click an app or folder → Spaces → choose the destination (or click on a assigned space to remove it from that space)
- Multiple Spaces: an item can belong to more than one Space, so you can mix and match workflows.
Switching Spaces
- Click a footer chip or use your keyboard shortcut (ctrl + tab) to cycle through spaces.
- Swipe left or right with two fingers on your trackpad.
- Roll your mouse’s horizontal scroll wheel to move across spaces.
- Click any space chip in the footer to jump directly to it.
- Launchie remembers the last space you used and opens there next time.
Customization of footer space chips:
- Right-click on a space chip and choose between “Plain Style” and “Chip Style”, “Show Labels” to show or hide the space name.
- Spaces are using the SF Symbols icons for the space icon. There is a SF Symbols App from apple or you can look up online the more than 6000 symbols available.
