Radial 4.2 released [What's new](/content/changelog/index.html)

## Core Features

# Everything at your cursor.

One gesture opens a circular menu at your cursor. Launch apps, switch apps with window previews, paste saved text, trigger shortcuts, open websites, run automations. Everything you reach for throughout your day, always one click away.

[**App Launcher**  
Launch any app with a single gesture. No searching, no looking through the Dock.

[**App Switcher**

## How it works

### Three steps. Under a second.

01  
### Press your hotkey  
A circular menu appears right where your cursor is. No window switching, no searching, no typing.

02  
### Pick an action  
Each slice of the menu holds something you set up — an app, a shortcut, a saved reply, a workflow. Click the one you want.

03  
### Back to work  
The action runs, the menu closes, and you are exactly where you were. Your focus never left.

## Ready to get started?

### Save 150+ hours every year.

A few well-built shortcuts in Radial saves most people 15 to 30 minutes a day. Try it free for 7 days and feel the difference before you spend a cent.
