macOS 14+ Sonoma

One URL in,
the right browser out

Browseway sits in your menu bar and silently routes every link to the right browser — based on which app sent it and where it points.

How it works

Open every link in the right browser

A single URL enters Browseway. Rules match the source app and URL pattern. The right browser opens — your links, automatically routed.

Features

Everything you need,
nothing you don't

Set your rules once. Browseway handles the rest — quietly, from your menu bar.

Source App Rules

Links from Slack open in Chrome. Links from Telegram open in Safari. Each app gets its own browser — automatically.

Per-App

URL Pattern Matching

Route github.com to one browser, google.com to another. Bare domains, wildcards, and substring matching.

Wildcards

URL Cleaning

Strips utm_*, fbclid, gclid and other tracking junk. Expands bit.ly and t.co short links before routing.

Privacy

Auto Updates

Built-in Sparkle updater checks for new versions automatically. Always stay current, zero effort.

Sparkle

Pause Rules

One click to pause all rules from the menu bar. Every link goes straight to your fallback browser until you resume.

Quick Toggle

Shortcuts Integration

Create rules, route URLs, and manage browsers through Apple Shortcuts. Automate your workflow.

App Intents

CLI Tool

Full command-line interface for rules, browsers, and routing. JSON output for scripting, perfect for AI agents and automation.

Terminal

Browser Profiles

Route to specific Chrome, Edge, or Firefox profiles. Send work links to your work profile, personal links to personal.

Multi-Profile

Localization

Full English and Chinese Simplified support. Switch languages from the menu bar — the UI adapts instantly.
