Features of SupaSidebar

Universal Command Panel

Unleash the power of rapid command with the Universal Command Panel. Activated by a simple shortcut (Cmd+Ctrl+K), this feature is your gateway to instantaneous control. Search across everything—your saved links, recent browsing history, open tabs from every browser, local files, folders, and applications. You can even perform searches within specific websites directly from the panel. It consolidates dozens of actions into one fluid, keyboard-driven interface, dramatically accelerating how you find and launch anything on your Mac.

Live Tabs & Recents Overview

Never lose a thought or a tab again. The Live Tabs feature gives you a real-time, unified view of every single tab you have open across all major browsers like Safari, Chrome, Firefox, and Arc. Alongside this, the Recents section automatically and privately tracks every website you've visited in the last 48 hours. This powerful combination ensures you can instantly recall and jump back to any webpage, research source, or article you were viewing, completely eliminating the frustration of digging through browser history or countless windows.

Multi-Browser Capture & Pins

SupaSidebar seamlessly integrates with your entire web workflow. With universal shortcuts (Cmd+Ctrl+S to save, Cmd+Ctrl+C to copy), you can capture the current URL from any browser instantly. Organize these captured links, along with your essential files and folders, as Pins. Your Pins are always prominently displayed for one-click access, keeping your most critical resources permanently at your fingertips and ready to launch in your browser of choice, breaking down the barriers between different applications.

Smart Folders & Native macOS Integration

Organize your digital world intuitively with Smart Folders, which allow you to group items dynamically using tags and rules. Beyond powerful organization, SupaSidebar is built as a lightweight, native macOS application. It runs smoothly in the background, blends perfectly with your system aesthetics, and respects macOS conventions. It stays discreetly out of your way until summoned, ensuring a fast, reliable, and cohesive experience that feels like a natural extension of your operating system.

Use Cases of SupaSidebar

Academic Research & Writing

For students and academics conducting deep research, SupaSidebar is a game-changer. As you gather sources from multiple journals and websites across different browsers, instantly save each crucial link with a shortcut. Use Pins for your primary sources and Smart Folders to categorize by project or topic. The Live Tabs and Recents features make it trivial to switch between dozens of reference tabs and your writing app without losing your place, keeping your entire research ecosystem organized and accessible from one sidebar.

Creative Project Management

Creative professionals juggling inspiration, assets, and project tools will find SupaSidebar indispensable. Pin your mood board links, design briefs, and cloud storage folders. Use the Command Panel to swiftly open design software or find a specific asset file on your drive. By having all project-related links, brand guidelines, and resource files consolidated in one always-available sidebar, you can maintain your creative flow without constant context-switching, allowing you to focus on bringing your vision to life.

Cross-Browser Workflow Efficiency

If your work requires testing websites, managing multiple social media accounts, or using different browsers for personal and professional tasks, SupaSidebar eliminates the clutter. See all your open tabs—from client sites in Chrome to admin panels in Firefox—in one unified Live Tabs list. Save links to open later in a specific browser, and use the Command Panel to jump directly to any open session. This creates a seamless, multi-browser environment that feels like a single, super-powered workspace.

Daily Personal Productivity

For anyone looking to streamline their daily digital life, SupaSidebar acts as a universal quick-access dock. Pin your daily news sites, calendar, to-do list, and frequently used documents. Use the Recents feature to quickly return to that recipe blog you visited yesterday or an online shopping cart. The simple act of having all your daily touchpoints one shortcut away saves countless minutes of searching and clicking, reducing mental load and creating a smoother, more focused daily routine.
