# 1 LaunchBar alternative for Mac

Canonical page: https://macbase.app/alternatives/launchbar

Keyboard launcher for opening apps, files, contacts and actions with a few typed letters.

LaunchBar has a long history and its own way of working, which takes time to learn. Most people who switch want a launcher with a more modern look, a free tier, community extensions, or clipboard history and window tools built in.
