Hi everyone, is there any way to assign trackpad gesture for cmd+ tab with cmd keep pressing to keep App Switcher on the screen? Maybe i should configure it differently? Thank you for any help

You can use the action "Show Window Switcher for All Open Apps", which is BTT's window switcher with some nice features. You might want to give it a try.

Additionally you can try for example AltTab app and assign the following actions to your trigger:
- If you must use the macOS app switcher you can use apple script to do it, but it's not ideal:
this will show macOS app switcher for 4sec (you can adjust it). The first action will basically simulate pressing and holding the CMD key and the last action the release. However no matter what for these 4sec your CMD will be pressed - so not ideal. You can also check if action "Execute Action Sequence after Timeout / Delay (Cancellable)" could be used and configured to avoid this.

If you need to use the system app switcher you can also use the "Application Switcher" action in BTT, which does have a "gesture mode" that keeps tab pressed as long as you keep touching the trackpad:
Oh, there's "Application Switcher" action, which does exactly that. @Vladimir_Rumyantsev, please ignore point 3 (and possibly 2), from my post, in that case.
It seems I'm overthinking 
Solution of Andreas_Hegenberg worked for me, thank you
Thank you, that works with my 3rd party switcher - three fingers tab keep it on the screen even if released fingers from a trackpad
Do you have any way to use a four-finger swipe to switch apps in the native app switcher on Apple devices?
