App grid
Open apps from a clean grid instead of remembering every name before you start typing.
Mac app launcher.
Facet is a Mac app launcher for people who want to browse apps visually, search quickly, keep folders, and avoid subscription-heavy productivity tools. It restores the app-grid workflow that made Launchpad useful.
A visual launcher, not another command center.
Keyboard search
Search when you know the app name, then launch without leaving the keyboard.
Folders
Keep creative apps, work tools, utilities, and games grouped in a layout you can recognize.
When Facet is the right Mac app launcher.
Facet is best if you want a launcher that feels native to macOS and keeps the visual app-browsing habit. Spotlight is excellent for typed search. Power launchers are excellent for workflows. Facet focuses on the simpler job: show your apps clearly, let you search, preserve folder organization, and launch fast.
- Use Facet for visual app browsing and folders.
- Use the Launchpad location guide if you are trying to find the built-in Launchpad.
- Use the Launchpad alternative guide if you are comparing replacement options.
