Features

Everything a desktop app should be

🚀

One-click templates

A curated catalog of 50+ popular apps — Gmail, Teams, Spotify, WhatsApp and more — added in a single click.

🔑

Shared logins

Group apps to a single profile and sign in once. Pick from your existing browser profiles by name.

🪟

Native window & identity

Each app gets its own libadwaita window, dock icon and Alt-Tab entry — not a browser tab.

🔔

Sticky notifications

Desktop notifications show with the app's name and icon and stay in the GNOME notification list.

🔗

Default handlers

Make a web app your default for email, calendar or calls — even Teams/Zoom deep links that have no Linux app.

🎨

Automatic icons

Crisp logos from the manifest, an online icon search, or your own file. Always a clean icon.

Templates

Add your favourites in seconds

No need to hunt for URLs or icons. Open the template gallery, click an app, choose a login profile and you're done — perfect for the web-only services Linux desktops are missing.
