“The unofficial companion app for Nintendo Switch” SwitchBuddy is a companion app specifically for the Nintendo Switch. You can easily transfer captured screenshots to your iPhone, stay informed about new releases, get an overview of the latest news, follow sales, and, of course, track your own game collection along with a wishlist, etc. It may not be the most beautiful app, but it is very functional. I use it daily.switchbuddy.app/
“Festivitas brings the holiday spirit to your Mac with festive lights for the dock and menu bar 🎄” "Festivitas automatically adds festive lights to your menu bar and dock upon launch and you can tweak their appearance to match your preferences ✨" - nothing to add here. As written on my blog, it just makes me smile.www.festivitas.app/
“Make Screenshot Stitching Easy with Picsew!” Picsew is IMHO a truly underrated app whose potential is not immediately apparent. Among scrollshot stitching and other things, you can e.g. effortlessly add device frames to screenshots and pay less for its full version than you pay for other apps in a single month. Highly recommended.apps.apple.com/us/app/picsew-scrollshot-collage
“Tap. Record. Share. The easiest way to record anything, by far.” It’s actually just that simple. At first, I wasn’t sure if I needed an app like this or what I’d use it for. However, it turns out to be really handy for capturing a few moments over the course of the day and exporting them as a short movie to your photo roll at the end of the day. And, of course, it can be used for many other much more creative ideas as well.https://okvideo.app/
“"It's a weather app. How much is there to say?" - Malin from Triple Glazed Studios' crack product marketing team” The usefulness of additional weather apps besides the native Apple one is certainly debatable, but in addition to Looks Like Rain I really enjoy using Mercury Weather. Mercury Weather was (one of) the first to offer a trip feature, to see what the weather will be like at the destination at a given time. It also has great interactive widgets and, more recently, a weather notifications for rain, snow, etc., that works quite well even here in Europe. apps.apple.com/
“Quickly and easily transcribe audio files into text with OpenAI's state-of-the-art transcription technology Whisper. Whether you're recording a meeting, lecture, or other important audio, MacWhisper quickly and accurately transcribes your audio files into text.” MacWhisper is probably one of, if not the best Whisper client for macOS. The free version is already useful, while the Pro version is just great. You can do anything with it that involves spoken text and needs to end up as written text. (For example, I dictated this in my native language and it directly produced this text in the text field.) goodsnooze.gumroad.com/l/macwhisper
“Organize anything. Collections is a personal database to organize anything.” Collections is a truly great database application that is easy to use and does not have an underlying subscription model. It's available on iOS and macOS, and all data is quickly and seamlessly synchronized via iCloud. What more could one want? collectionsdb.com/
“Watch Later Queue for YouTube” Untwatched is a great and free alternative to Play: "No autoplay, no alorithmic bottomless feed. Just the Videos queued up in the order you want to." I would suggest just downloading it and trying it out. And if you like it, sponsor the project on GitHub. apps.apple.com/us/app/unwatched-rss-video-player/id6477287463
“A screenshot is just a screenshot. Until you use ScreenFloat.” Not everyone wants to subscribe to a Screenshot utility like CleanShot X, but may be looking for more than Apple's built-in tool can do. Then (and not only then) ScreenFloat is a great choice: "With ScreenFloat, you can capture and record your screen in various ways, and re-capture previous areas effortlessly."eternalstorms.at/ScreenFloat/
“ It doesn’t suck.®” Actually, one hopefully doesn't have to write much about BBEdit. It is THE text editor for macOS that can do everything. I'm not a programmer, but I constantly use its powerful search & replace functions with regex support, all the other text manipulation features, and text factories. Everything that is plaintext is primarily edited in BBEdit by me. Sure, there might be prettier apps, etc. You can buy and use all of them, but you still have to own BBEdit 😎. www.barebones.com/products/bbedit/
“The Ultimate Backup And File Sync App For Your Mac” If you want to sync your files and not only back them up, ChronoSync is a great choice. It's a one-time purchase with a lifetime upgrade policy. Of course, you can just back up data as well, but then SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner might be something to look into, too. www.econtechnologies.com/chronosync/overview.html
“Alle Bankkonten im Blick mit MoneyMoney.” Money Money is the one and only banking app for all users with German bank accounts. Go buy it! 😎 (It works with some European banks as well.) moneymoney-app.com/
“For writing. And writing. And writing.” Scrivener is certainly not for everyone, but if you write long-form texts and need a place where you can outline, collect thoughts, organize, reorganize, and publish your writing in various ways, it might be the text editor you have been looking for. Its development has slowed down quite a bit, but it's a really mature product. www.literatureandlatte.com/scrivener/
“Quick access to your files and folders in every app.” Default Folder X has been around for ages now and is a really great piece of software if you often have to save files to a lot of different (project) folders. It's highly customizable and even automatable to some extend. www.stclairsoft.com/DefaultFolderX/
“MIND MAPPING & OUTLINING What's On Your Mind?” MindNode is, for me, the best mind mapping tool by far and a great outliner as well. Highly recommended if you like to visually organize your thoughts. mindnode.com/ PS: It's on Setapp as well.
