I've been raving out LiteSwitch...

I've been raving out LiteSwitch...

I’ve been raving out LiteSwitch X for years without seeing much other praise for it. It’s nice to see someone else who appreciates it as much as I do. Also worth mentioning: LiteSwitch X is also better designed from an interaction perspective as well because it allows you to close multiple apps by “X-ing” them - and not continuously bumping them over like the current switcher does. This bumping forces your eyes to readjust every time an app is closed. Apple should have figured this out a long time ago.
