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.
Library
Coherence's new application library allows you to easily manage your created apps and change their settings. You can even change the app's window mode or browser engine after the fact.
Choice, not just Google
You can use the most popular chromium-based browsers as the backend for your Coherence X4 apps, not just Chrome.
