VibeShift is a menu-bar app that switches your whole desktop — wallpaper, Dock, desktop files, even running apps — to match what you're doing. In under a second.
You don't just multitask — you context-switch. Deep work, meetings, admin, personal time. Your Mac stays the same through all of it, and the residue adds up.
Every switch — click, hotkey, or automation — runs the same sequenced pipeline, with a floating HUD reporting progress.
A missing wallpaper or an app that isn't installed on this Mac never aborts the switch — it completes anyway, and the HUD tells you what was skipped.
A context is a complete desktop environment, saved. Define it once; return to it forever.
Every context sets its own wallpaper on every connected monitor. Capture the current one with a click.
Only the files that belong here stay visible. The rest are relocated — never deleted — and return when you do.
Fourteen settings captured and restored: pinned apps, position, size, magnification, auto-hide, and more.
Launch what a context needs on entry. Quit what it doesn't on exit — silently, or with a confirmation.
⌘⌃1 through ⌘⌃0, system-wide, free tier included. Each context keeps its shortcut for life.
Changed the wallpaper or Dock by hand? VibeShift notices, and offers to update the context — or reapply it.
No Dock icon, no window clutter. A quick switcher with search lives in your menu bar, out of the way until you need it.
Contexts are Shortcuts actions — any automation you already run can switch your whole Mac.
Three kinds of trigger, combinable on a single rule.
Mornings are for deep work. At 9:00 on weekdays, your Mac is already in Work before you sit down. Missed fires after sleep or a clock change are caught up correctly.
Join the office Wi-Fi and the office shows up: work wallpaper, work Dock, work files. Detection is debounced, so a flaky network never causes churn.
Link contexts to macOS Focus modes in the system Focus Filters panel. Turn on Personal Focus — on your Mac, your iPhone, anywhere — and VibeShift follows.
Predicates combine: put time and Wi-Fi on one rule and it fires only when every condition matches. Overlapping rules across contexts are flagged before they surprise you.
VibeShift collects nothing. Not as a promise buried in a policy — as an architecture. Everything runs and stays on your Mac.
