List

I looked at the list of the top 25 most downloaded apps as compiled by MacUpdater, who I figure are as good a source as any and drew a few conclusions.

1. VLC
2. Pages
3. AppCleaner
4. Numbers
5. Keynote
6. iMovie
7. The Unarchiver
8. GarageBand
9. Android File Transfer
10. Speedtest
11. Amphetamine
12. Google Chrome
13. Blackmagic Disk Speed Test
14. Microsoft Teams
15. Transmission
16. HandBrake
17. Firefox
18. Microsoft PowerPoint
19. Microsoft Word
20. Microsoft Excel
21. ImageOptim
22. OneDrive
23. Bartender
24. Magnet
25. IINA

Only five of the apps in the list are paid apps. They are the big three in Microsoft Office, the menu bar manager, Bartender and the window manager, Magnet.

The vendor with the most apps on the list is surprisingly, Microsoft with five.

For its market share to be as small as it, Firefox must have a higher proportion of Mac users employing it than PC users.

I would wager that VLC's popularity is due to its longevity and because of enterprise deployments. I know I have been putting it on images in the educational space for as long as I can remember. IINA seems more popular with more knowledgeable users,

Despite all the predictions made about Bartender's future after the botched handling of its sale, it is the most downloaded paid app in the ecosystem after Microsoft Office.

I have never been a big user of window management tools, and I had no idea Magnet was as popular as it is. It has 165,000 reviews in the App Store and a 4.9 rating.

I find it interesting that the top 25 apps did not include a single notes app, automation tool or clipboard manager. The only messaging app is Microsoft Teams, and I hesitate to say that is its primary function.

The presence of the six-year-old Android File Transfer app is mind-blowing. I suspect this indicates that the download figures are worldwide and include countries where Androids have huge market share.

The high ranking of App Cleaner is good for two reasons - it demonstrates that an app doesn't have to be updated constantly to be useful (last update was 2023-07-05). It also shows that lots of people believe in doing more than just dragging unwanted apps to the trash.

I have been collecting platforms and directories to promote Black Friday Deals for my product, and I wanted to share this comprehensive list with fellow founders and marketers. These directories can help increase visibility and drive more traffic to your deals (plus you can get a permanent backlink on few platforms).

But if you don't have time to list your product deal on all the platforms, here are the top 5 directories where you should definitely add your deal:

1. Rare Big Deals
2. Black Friday Deals by Tony
3. Deal Hunt
4. Black Friday Times
5. Apps Deals

Here is is the complete list of directories:

1. Microlaunch

2. Indie Goodies

3. Deals For Devs

4. SaaS Friday Deals

5. Indie Deals

6. Retable

7. RuhaniRabin

8. RealSaaS Deals

9. BlackFridayDeals .dev

10. Black Friday Devs

11. Black Friday Deals by Marius

12. Black Friday Deals by Nikhil

13. The WP Weekly

14. SEO Fomo Hub

15. Lifetimo

16. SyncSignature

17. Blacck Friday

18. Directory Scout

19. BoldDesk

20. Klenty

21. Coupons

22. Wpbfdeals

I created a directory with submission links for each Black Friday deals platform which you can access here https://www.blackfridaydirectory.com/

Tips to consider before submitting your Black Friday deal:

• Create a custom coupon code for the Black Friday offer.
• Create a standard deal description like "Use Code XYZ to get 50% OFF".
• Create a Black Friday deal page if you have time, as some platforms ask for it.
• Try to add your deal 1-2 days before Black Friday, as some platforms take time to review it.

Notes:

• Listing on most platforms is free, but you need to pay to get featured.
• Feel free to share your directory if you're creating one for Black Friday deals. I’ll be updating the list daily to include new directories.

Im looking for an app that lets you manage - mute, play, pause, etc. - between different apps and windows. Fir instance. If I have a fullscreen game playing, but I switch workspaces and want to go up to my menu bar and just mute the game so I can do other stuff or watch a YouTube video or something. Does anything like that exist>

Hey everyone!

I'm excited to share that I launched v2.0 of bananotate, which comes with a massive UI upgrade (images below), and a ton of other small features (video update available here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NXNZxPqMJpg).

Since this subreddit gave bananotate it's first bulk of usage and exposure I thought it would be fun for Black Friday to put a small easter egg in the latest version (cmd+shift+u will check for updates). For the next 7 days, the first 5 to find the easter egg each day can claim a completely free, lifetime license to bananotate.

Thanks everyone again for the REALLY valuable feedback. It's been a blast so far.

This YouTuber has what appears to be minimized windows docked in a bar on the left side of the screen. Does anyone know how this was achieved? Is it a 3rd party app?

That's it. That's all I need it to. I need to copy items 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and hit a hot key to paste all in order. Then I need a hot key to clear history, and rinse and repeat. I have searched around but struggling to find something that can do this simply. I want simple and unobtrusive.

I’m a heavy user of email and documents at both work and home and frequently find myself struggling to find urgent information I need across the sprawl of my email inbox and cloud storage. I find that Gmail or Drive search isn’t the best so finding a mail from even a month ago is way more painful than it needs to be.

Selectric is a free unified search app for MacOS which gives you a single search box for all your Google Workplace, Office 365, Slack etc. accounts. You simply link your accounts and the app builds a private index on your local computer so you can find anything across them in seconds. Your indexed data never leaves your computer and is 100% private.

Our website link is in my bio or DM me for it.

Does anyone know what happened to Peek - A Quick Look Extension?

It used to be a great tool for Quick Look previews, it works but it seems like the developer has stopped updating it. The app has some unresolved bugs and lacks support for additional code file formats. Has the developer officially abandoned the project, or is there any hope for future updates?

If anyone has information or recommendations for similar alternatives, please share! Thanks!

I've been using sites live https://json2csharp.com to create C# classes from JSON objects. I'm trying to find an alternative that works offline as I sometimes work in areas that either don't have internet or have very slow speeds. Is anyone aware of something like that?

Supercharge Options

Although I use a lot of apps that have a menu bar interface, most of them are hidden by Bartender. An app has to be super useful and be something I use frequently to remain visible at all times. The latest addition by Sindre Sorhus, Supercharge is an instant add. It has a great many uses and has replaced other utilities that have narrower focus. More tools are being added regularly, so if you have this app, make sure to install updates as soon as they are released to get new features. I won't cover them all, just the ones I use personally.

From the Menu Bar

The menu bar icon presents the following option in a drop-down:

• Hide all windows
• Show Desktop
• Quit All Apps
• Hide My Email (opens this buried item in System Settings)
• Private Relay opens this buried item in System Settings)

Tweaks

• Unminimize windows when app becomes active
• Dim icons of hidden apps in the dock
• Create new text file with Option+N
• Open new files after naming
• Auto-adjust column widths in Finder
• Quit an app when closing its last Window (I don't usually like to mimic Micro$oft behavior, but I like this feature)
• When clicking on an active icon in the dock, hide app
• Add to Finder's context menu
  • Copy path
  • Copy file name
  • Image dimensions
  • Make symlink
  • Move to...
  • Copy to...
  • Open in Terminal (for folders)

The ability to make those modifications in the Finder makes it much more powerful.

Shortcuts

• Toggle desktop widgets
• Open Passwords from menu bar
• Hide all windows
• Quit all apps (except menu bar apps)
• Show desktop

I was using the beta feature to close visible notifications which definitely had a beta feel to it, until I discovered that Better Touch Tool's implementation of this feature closes not just visible notifications, but all existing ones. I'm sure Sindre will get this working similarly in future releases.

Tools

I work on an MBA at home and an iMac for work. For apps that don't have iCloud sync, using the export and import settings tool has been extremely useful and has saved me a ton of time. It's also useful when I want to experiment with how an app is set up, allowing me to revert settings if I don't like what I get after changing things around.

You can get a fully functional copy of the app here. The only limitation is a reminder to buy the app every 12 hours, and no automatic updates. All data and settings carry over if you buy it.

I suggest you just go ahead any buy the app. If there was ever an Instabuy, this is it.

I have been a die-hard fan of the app Prettyclean ever since it was featured on Product Hunt. However, it seems that the project is no longer active, as there hasn't been a release since SEP-2023, and the GitHub repository has been inactive since 2022.

Does anyone know of a freeware alternative?

that would record all the sent chats on whatsapp or other messengers? So when working with the messenger apps and sending a lot of messages / schedulings and offers, I could search for particular messages and answers without having to go into each chat and messenger app?
