[In-app feedback]

[alt-tab-macos-bot]

This issue was opened by a bot after a user submitted feedback through the in-app form.

Message:

On Sequoia, it looks like sometimes using Alttab to apps doesn't activate the newly selected window, whereas there was no issue in the previous OS version. I have to revert to using Mission Control.

I keep checking for updates, but I don't think there has been a new one since Sequoia was released. Should I try reinstalling, or are you working on a new version?

Thanks, let me know.

Maybe focus doesn't work because they are trying to focus a "dead window"? See #3589
