Launcher and Menu Bar Access

Apps for Google gives you a dedicated Mac launcher for your Google services, plus a menu bar utility for fast opening when the main window is closed. Instead of hunting through bookmarks, tabs, or separate browser windows, you can keep your most-used Google apps in one place and open them in a cleaner way.

Quick Access for Spotlight and Shortcuts

Choose the apps you want to expose to Apple Spotlight and the Shortcuts system through Quick Access. This makes it easier to launch the Google apps you care about directly from macOS search and automation workflows, without adding extra clutter to the menu bar.

Widget Support for the Mac Desktop

Apps for Google includes desktop widgets so you can surface a selected Google app right on your Mac desktop. It is a simple way to keep frequently used services closer to your workflow and reduce the steps it takes to get where you need to go.

Pinned Apps, Categories, and Recents

Organize your workspace with pinned apps, category browsing, and recent launches. Whether you primarily work in Gmail and Calendar, or you move between Drive, Docs, Sheets, Slides, Meet, Chat, Photos, and Maps throughout the day, Apps for Google helps keep those destinations easier to reach.

Browser Routing and Launch Control

If you prefer different Google apps in different browsers, Apps for Google supports per-app browser routing. You can keep one service opening in your default browser while sending another to a different installed browser, giving you more control over how your setup behaves on Mac.

Desktop Shortcuts and Faster Launching

Export desktop shortcuts for the apps you use most so they are always one click away. Apps for Google also supports launch hotkeys for faster access, helping reduce repeated searching and making common actions easier to trigger throughout the day.

Apps for Google Pro

Apps for Google also includes Apps for Google Pro for users who want more control over their setup.

  • Unlimited hotkeys
  • Advanced desktop shortcut exports for deeper destinations like Inbox, Starred, My Drive, Week view, and more

Privacy

Apps for Google is a local-first Mac app. Your favorites, recents, browser routing, shortcuts, widget selections, Spotlight exposure, and other preferences stay on your device. The app does not require an account and does not run a backend for app usage data.
