Description
Run multiple instances of your favorite Mac apps - natively, cleanly, and without workarounds.
Parall lets you create independent app shortcuts that behave like standalone apps - each with its own Dock icon, name, configuration, and optional data container.
Parall is the first and only macOS app of its kind, delivering true multi-instance app launching through a fully native design - no hacks, scripts, or background daemons.
Key Features
- Run apps in parallel - Launch multiple instances of the same app side by side.
- Custom Dock shortcuts - Each shortcut looks and behaves like a separate app.
- Automatic updates - Shortcuts always stay in sync when the original app updates.
- Custom icons per shortcut - Assign unique icons to easily distinguish profiles in the Dock.
- Custom launch arguments - Add command-line parameters or flags per shortcut.
- HOME override - Point the shortcut's HOME to a folder you choose.
- Environment variables - Define per-instance variables for flexible control and behavior separation.
- Dedicated data folders - Fully supported for Chrome-based apps browsers (Chrome, Edge, Brave, Vivaldi, Opera) and now Firefox-based apps and browsers.
- Newly supported apps - Slack, Notion, Visual Studio Code, Cursor, Evernote, Arduino IDE, and all ToDesktop-based apps.
- Zero hacks or scripts - 100% native macOS integration.
- No background processes - Parall runs only when you use it.
- Offline & private - Operates entirely offline, never transmits any data.
Data Control & Storage Flexibility
Parall also lets you control exactly where apps store their data.
You can redirect storage to any location - for example:
- A Dropbox or iCloud Drive folder to keep app data synced across devices.
- An external SSD or network drive to save space on your internal disk.
- A project-specific folder to isolate sessions or environments for testing.
This gives you complete freedom to organize, back up, and share app profiles the way you prefer.
Each shortcut Parall creates is a lightweight .app bundle that directly launches your chosen app's executable.
You can pin them to the Dock, rename them, and assign custom icons - making each instance truly feel like an independent application.
Shortcuts automatically adapt when the original app updates - no maintenance required.
Parall itself is fully sandboxed, private, and Mac App Store approved.
Shortcuts you create are not sandboxed (by macOS design) but are completely safe - they simply launch your existing apps with isolated environments.
Compatibility & Support
Not every app supports multiple simultaneous instances - some are designed to prevent it.
For the current compatibility list, visit parall.app/compatibility.
If your app isn't listed or you'd like confirmation before purchase, contact support@parall.app - I'll personally test and, if possible, add support for it.
System Requirements
- macOS 10.10 or newer
- Works on both Apple Silicon and Intel Macs
Apple system apps (like Safari, Mail, or Notes) are not supported.
More third-party app support will continue to expand in upcoming releases.
