Overview

Turn any website into an app on your Mac in seconds

Coherence X4 is a powerful tool that allows you to turn any website into a chromium-based, isolated, native application on your Mac. 

App Creation

Creating an app in Coherence is simple. Simply enter a URL, choose an icon, and give it a name. You can even use custom settings or create multiple apps at once.

Extensions & Profiles

Coherence is the only SSB tool that allows you to import extensions and profiles from your browser and use them within your created apps.

Standard Apps

Standard apps isolate the web into a single-window, native-esque application. While these windows look native, they still maintain all the power of a browser, including extensions.

Intelligent Whitelisting

Intelligent Whitelisting lets you create rules for which links should open in your created app, and sends all others to your default browser. It even automatically detects which URLs to whitelist.

Tabbed apps

Tabbed apps combine the customization abilities of Coherence with the design of a typical browser. These apps behave as a normal Chrome browser but with isolation and custom assets.

The best gets better

Coherence X4 features a number of major new updates that makes Coherence better than all other Chrome-based SSB tools.

Quick Resume

Coherence is the only Chrome-based SSB that behaves like a Mac app. New in X4, when you close an app window, it'll reopen to it's previous state without relaunching.

1. Chromeless and WebCatalog do allow tabbed styled apps, but do not allow you to set a series of tabs that always launch.

2. Chromeless and WebCatalog do allow you to edit created apps after the fact, however, you can not edit icons retrieved from the app catalog. Additionally, you can not change browser engines or app mode after creation.
