I does not work in Contexts.app. The System version is 10.14.5.

Currently, windows like Launcher, Spotlight Search, Alfred, and Contexts are not supported. Such pop-up panels are "non activating", and will not take over user focus. With current window detection mechanism, SwitchKey cannot handle such pop-ups. This is a known issue, but hard to resolve with current mechanism.

I'm still looking for solutions and hope to support these windows in the following update.

You can force keyboard to Alfred without any third-party software.

But SwitchKey cannot handle apps besides Alfred. And I have no clue for solving it.

The System version is macos catalina 10.15.5, switchkey does not work. When i change the windows, it can not change the switch input method automatically. I test this problem in windows, wechat, iterm2,chrome and so on.
