@breed007 breed007 released this 12 Jun 20:49

First public release of Switchback — see and switch macOS network locations from the menu bar.

Signed with a Developer ID, notarized by Apple, and universal (Apple Silicon + Intel), so it opens with no Gatekeeper workaround.

What it does

  • Lists your network locations with the active one checked, one click to switch.
  • Reflects changes made anywhere (event-driven via SCDynamicStore).
  • Create, rename, and delete locations through the native macOS auth panel — no sudoers rule, no setup step. New locations are populated with default services so they work immediately.

Install

  1. Download Switchback-v0.1.0-universal.zip (or the .dmg) below.
  2. Move Switchback.app to /Applications (or drag it from the disk image).
  3. Launch it — it lives in the menu bar (no Dock icon). Requires macOS 14 (Sonoma) or later.

Sibling to Crossbar, which toggles network services.
