DashPane▲97Built this for macOS because I wanted app switching to feel faster and more flexible than the default Command-Tab flow.

So for the past 3 years, we built “user assistance” tools for desktop and web apps only. (Stuff like an embedded Copilot trained on your product, cmd+k search, nudges, etc.) It took a lot of self-convincing but we’ve decided to finally launch all of this for mobile today too. In hindsight, we actually regret not doing it sooner. The more we dug into customer feedback, the more we realized how much more pronounced the problems we're solving on desktop are on mweb and native…
