Can You Rename Spaces in macOS?

No, macOS doesn't support renaming Spaces natively. Apple has never added this feature despite years of user requests.

SpaceJump is a free menu bar app that adds this missing feature. Name your Spaces "Work", "Code", "Music" — whatever you want. Names persist across restarts.

How SpaceJump Works

  1. 1.Install SpaceJump — it appears in your menu bar
  2. 2.Click the menu bar icon to see your Spaces
  3. 3.Click to rename any Space
  4. 4.Use +ß to quickly switch by name

More Than Just Renaming

SpaceJump isn't just about naming your Spaces — it's about working faster.

  • Always know where you are — current Space name in menu bar
  • Switch instantly — global hotkey to jump to any Space by name
  • Type to filter — find the right workspace in milliseconds
  • Keyboard-first — press 1-9 to jump directly to any Space

Why SpaceJump?

  • Free and lightweight (~15MB)
  • No SIP disable required
  • Native Swift app — not Electron
  • Works on macOS 13+
