🧵 My favorite Apps for macOS

I'm always looking for new apps to make my work easier, more productive or to write down my thoughts. Here is a list of my most popular and most-used apps.

👇👇👇
1️⃣ Alfred 4 for Mac

The features of Apple's Spotlight are nothing compared to what Alfred can offer. Built-in snippet manager, copy history, and workflows for all sorts of tasks are just a few of the conveniences I couldn't work without.

2️⃣ Bartender 4 - Take control of your menu bar

If you've a variety of apps installed, the menu bar quickly becomes cluttered & crowded. With Bartender, that's a thing of the past. Reduce the menu bar to the most important apps with a few clicks.

3️⃣ Yoink

With Yoink you can put as many files as you want on a clipboard before dropping them at the desired location. Moving and organizing has never been easier with this drag and drop tool.

4️⃣ TextSniper

"Extract text from anywhere." This is the USP of TextSniper and I must say the app is fantastic. With one shortcut I get the text extracted from videos, presentations, photos, and much more and can use the text immediately. Great! https://textsniper.app/ 
5️⃣ Irvue

How often do you change your background on your Mac? I change mine every hour, thanks to Irvue. The app downloads random - or defined - images from Unsplash and sets them as backgrounds. I've found a lot of fascinating images that way. https://irvue.tumblr.com/ 
6️⃣ Hocus Focus

Inactive applications are distracting and clutter the desktop. With Hocus Focus, I automatically minimize apps when they are no longer active. This happens automatically when they lose focus or after a certain time.

7️⃣ Droplr

I create, share and manage screenshots, files, screen recordings, and more with Droplr. For several years, Droplr has been my go-to app for screenshot annotations and bug reports. https://droplr.com/ 
8️⃣ Twizzle & TweetDeck

I can't stress enough how lucky I'm to be connected with several of the most helpful, & inspiring Twitter legends. I use Twizzle & Tweetdeck to keep up with all the exciting conversations. Love u all. 💛

9️⃣ FeedHive

I've used various Twitter schedulers and management tools in the past, BUT @SimonHoiberg's FeedHive is unique and just fantastic, and @feedhive_io is still in private beta. I'm excited to see where this journey takes you, my friend!

🔟 DeepL & Grammarly

If English is not your native language and you write a lot of texts, sooner or later you should take a look at these two tools. I use Grammarly Premium and DeepL Free and couldn't be happier.
