It supports multiple domain constraints, source app filtering, Focus mode integration, and time-based routing. The tool addresses the challenge of managing multiple browser profiles across different projects and clients, eliminating manual profile switching and link copying. Features include VoiceOver support, privacy-first design with no data collection, browser extensions for Chromium/Firefox/Safari, and support for seven languages. Available as a one-time purchase without subscriptions, with a 7-day trial period. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
