CloseAll for macOS

The 1-Click "Quit All Applications" Utility for Mac

Overview & Architecture

CloseAll for macOS gives power users, developers, and creative professionals a blazing-fast, single-click solution to close all running applications at once. Instead of right-clicking every individual Dock icon or cycling through Cmd+Tab dozens of times, CloseAll terminates all running user applications in under 200ms. It features smart system protection (Finder and macOS system daemons are safe), flexible app whitelisting with shields, a floating feedback HUD, multi-stage safe exit with SIGTERM/SIGKILL fallback, an instant Undo/Reopen feature to restore apps closed by mistake, and a native command-line interface for Raycast, Alfred, and Automator shortcuts.
