Download the .zip file from our website, extract it, and drag InputSwitcher.app to your Applications folder. Double-click to launch. On first run, you'll be guided through granting necessary permissions.

Go to System Settings > Privacy & Security > Accessibility, then find InputSwitcher in the list and toggle it ON. If you don't see it, click the '+' button and add it manually from your Applications folder. You may need to restart the app after granting permissions.

Accessibility permissions are required by macOS for any app that needs to detect which window is active and to switch input sources programmatically. InputSwitcher only uses these permissions for its core functionality and does not access any content within your applications.

Click the InputSwitcher icon in the menu bar → Settings → Rule Management → Click the '+' button → Select an app from the list → Choose your preferred input source → Click Save. The rule will take effect immediately.

Several reasons can cause this: 1) Make sure you've added a rule for that app in Settings > Rule Management. 2) The app might be sandboxed with a different bundle ID — try removing and re-adding the rule. 3) Some apps (like Electron apps) may report different window info. 4) Ensure InputSwitcher has Accessibility permissions enabled.

First, check if the app is running in Activity Monitor. If not, try launching it again. If you have many menu bar apps, InputSwitcher's icon might be hidden — try closing some menu bar apps or use Bartender/Hidden Bar to manage them. You can also check System Settings > Control Center to see if it's been hidden.

Make sure the Visual Indicator feature is enabled in Settings (Pro feature). Also, check that you haven't disabled the overlay in System Settings > Privacy & Security > Screen Recording. The indicator requires screen overlay permissions on newer macOS versions.

This might be caused by: 1) A conflicting system setting — check System Settings > Keyboard > Input Sources and disable 'Automatically switch to a document's input source'. 2) Another input method app conflicting with InputSwitcher. 3) The Fallback Input Source setting in InputSwitcher — check Settings > General.

macOS updates sometimes reset privacy permissions. Go to System Settings > Privacy & Security > Accessibility, remove InputSwitcher from the list, then add it again. Restart the app after doing this.
