Ikuna is a native macOS application designed to manage and switch between workspaces, targeting Mac users who frequently move between different projects or roles throughout the day. The tool addresses the challenge of context switching by allowing users to save a snapshot of their entire working environment—including open applications, browser tabs, and window positions across multiple monitors—and restore it instantly with a single click. This functionality aims to reduce the time and cognitive effort spent reorganizing windows and applications when transitioning between tasks. Ikuna offers features such as multi-display support, saving and recalling window positions across all connected screens. Users can personalize each workspace with unique wallpapers, playlists, videos, or audio triggers, helping to create distinct environments for different types of work. The application also provides a 'Clean' function that minimizes or closes all open apps to clear the desktop before launching a new workspace, ensuring a distraction-free transition. For those interested in monitoring their work habits, Ikuna includes a dashboard with basic activity metrics in the free plan and more advanced analytics in the Pro plan. Keyboard shortcuts are available to streamline workspace switching. The tool is customizable, allowing users to edit the composition of each workspace and tailor visual and audio cues for specific contexts, such as client work, deep writing, or morning reviews. Ikuna is built for macOS 13 and above, supporting both Apple Silicon and Intel Macs. It requires Accessibility permissions to function, as it interacts with system APIs to detect and manage app states and window positions. The service is offered under a freemium model: the Free plan, which does not expire and requires no payment information, allows up to four saved workspaces (Ikunas) with core features such as workspace saving/restoring, multi-monitor support, video and audio triggers, keyboard shortcuts, and a basic activity dashboard. The Pro plan, available for a monthly or discounted yearly fee, unlocks unlimited workspaces, device linking, automatic launching on monitor connection, distraction blocking per workspace, advanced dashboards, and priority support.
