+
+## How To Use
+
+1. While focused on an open window (like a browser or editor), hit the "record" hotkey (default: `win+ctrl+shift+?`) to add an app to the focus cycle list. Tooltips will pop up notifying you of recorded apps, or if there's an issue recording.
+
+2. To cycle forward through recorded apps, use the "cycle forward" hotkey (default: `win+ctrl+shift+>`), or click the system-tray icon, or click the menu Item "Cycle Apps" menu item.
+
+3. To cycle backward, use the "cycle backward" hotkey (default: `win+ctrl+shift+<`).
+
+## To Compile
+
+```cmd
+Ahk2Exe.exe /in "SwitchAppFocus.ahk" /icon "main.ico"
+```
