I have been a user of CommandTabPlus for years, but it is not working reliability anymore. I am unsure if this relates to Ventura or whatnot, but it was time to move on.

AltTab does everything in CommandTabPlus, but with more reliability (and it is free/open source).

The only feature it is missing is an option to group windows from the same apps, but for anyone who uses OS X spaces and wants to ensure CMD+Tab only shows windows in the current space, AltTab is a great tool.

In addition, I like the option of having multiple keyboard shortcuts to cycle through windows differently.

I am currently using three:

1. cmd+tab - windows in the current space
2. option +` - active app in the current space
3. option + tab - active app in all spaces
