Objektiv is a utility that lets you switch your default browser easily. You might find it useful if you're a web designer or use multiple browsers in your workflow.
Download Objektiv now! Works with Mac OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion) onwards.
- A status-bar icon for quick access
- An optional global hotkey triggers an overlay window for even quicker switching
- Pressing Option (⌥) in the status menu lets you hide browsers that are incorrectly detected
Due to the recent changes in MacOS 10.10+, applications are now incapable of switching the user's default browser silently without a confirmation message. Please set Objektiv as your default browser in your System Prefences > General and everything will work as normal.
Objektiv requires CocoaPods in order to be built.
After cloning this repository, run:
$ pod install
in order to grab dependencies. Also, make sure that you open
Objektiv.xcworkspace
, not Objektiv.xcodeproj
.
We built Objektiv to scratch an itch we at nth loop were facing, and to also learn all about developing Mac Apps. It's ridiculously over-engineered for such a simple utility.
