Swyvo is a Windows utility for instant switching between native programs and websites using a single hotkey. The interface appears above active windows and closes after selection. It keeps applications loaded off-screen to avoid restart delays. The menu changes based on which program currently has focus.
The program is written in C++ for direct control over window behavior and process memory. It registers Alt+Q as a system-wide shortcut that works in games, editors, and the desktop. Web shortcuts share one WebView2 process to reduce RAM usage. Native apps run separately and remain independent.
Swyvo targets users who work with multiple tools simultaneously and need predictable access times. It supports custom workspace rules, keyboard-only navigation, and automatic startup with Windows. The current version is available from the official site without in-app purchases or subscription fees.
