What it does
LaunchOS is the perfect Launchpad alternative for macOS 26 Tahoe. It almost replicates all the details of the system's native Launchpad (with some still in progress), looking almost identical to the native Launchpad in both appearance and user experience. It also supports the liquid glass effect and adds many improved features. You will definitely like it.

An open source Launchpad for macOS 262025 · github.com · ▲51An open sourced version of Launchpad that I enhanced, you can import from old system Launchpad (just one click), and most of things look same. There are also a lot of functions, like adjust / display / hide icon size and title, localize icons, game controller support, i18n, voice over, etc. Still updating, open an issue if there are any problems. Hope this could help if someone updated to MacOS26 and not happy with new Launchpad :) Thank you.
