Hey everyone 👋 I built NexusPad after Apple removed Launchpad in macOS Tahoe. I realized I used Launchpad more than Spotlight when I just wanted to quickly browse and organise my apps. Couldn’t find anything that felt the same, so I built this. Would love your feedback: What would make you use this daily? I’ll be here all day to respond 🙏

When Apple removed Launchpad in macOS Tahoe, something felt missing. Spotlight is great for search, but not for browsing.
NexusPad is a native macOS app launcher designed to bring back that simple, visual experience, without the clutter.
✨ Features:
1. Grid & list view for flexible browsing
2. App folders for organization
3. Add to favorites for quick access
4. Sorting options
5. Fast, keyboard-first search
6. Minimal, native UI

What are you using now - Spotlight, Raycast, Alfred? Do you...
