Read the full description
Zap is a tiny menu bar app for macOS that quits every open app in one click. Your windows spiral into the ⚡ button and each app quits the moment it gets there, exactly like pressing ⌘Q, so unsaved documents still ask to save. Finder, the Dock and system processes are never touched, and you can lock any app you want to keep (music, terminal…). 1 MB, no account, no network code, no tracking. Perfect before a screen share, at the end of the day or to start a focus session. 2$ one-time payment.
