Hold Alt to bring up the character wheel, then flick your mouse toward the one you want and release, that’s the fastest way once you get used to it, I spam it all the time

yeah alt is definitely the standard way to do it. takes a bit of practice to get that quick flick right but once it clicks it's super smooth. good luck with the rest of the game, it's a wild ride lol.

Press and hold the Alt key on your keyboard to open the character wheel in Grand Theft Auto V. Move your mouse or right stick to select Michael, Franklin, or Trevor, then release Alt to switch characters instantly during free roam gameplay.

In Grand Theft Auto V on PC, you can switch between the three main characters — Michael, Franklin, and Trevor — using these steps:

• Hold the Left Alt key on your keyboard.
• A character selection wheel will appear on the screen.
• Move your mouse or use the directional keys to select the character you want.
• Release the Left Alt key to switch instantly.

You can also switch characters during free roam mode, but some story missions temporarily lock character switching. Each character has unique skills and locations, which makes gameplay more interesting.

On PC, you can switch characters in GTA 5 Story Mode by holding the Left Alt key to open the character wheel, then use your mouse or arrow keys to select Michael, Franklin, or Trevor and release Alt to switch. If it’s not working, make sure you’re in Story Mode and not during a mission where character switching is temporarily disabled.
