Making Contacts Work with Android phone and MacBook

I’m using an Android phone and a MacBook. Syncing contacts between Google and Apple is easy enough. The problem is that labels I create in Google Contacts on my phone don’t carry over to Apple Contacts on my Mac. Doing it the other way around is even worse. I downloaded BusyContacts and Cardhop but I’m not really sure what they’re supposed to do here. Neither seems to actually sync labels/groups between Google and Ap

A local Mac app that reads your iMessage history to surface who you've lost touch with - no cloud, no account, one-time

Trust first, since this reads your messages: it runs 100% on your Mac. You point it at the one Messages folder it needs (no Full Disk Access), it indexes locally, nothing is ever uploaded, no account, no cloud - and you can wipe the index anytime. The story: a friend built a small tool for himself that read his iMessage history and surfaced the people he'd quietly drifted from. One night we loaded it with our own thr

[OS] I built Steno to protect your most sensitive conversations. AI notetaker & notepad. 1200+ GitHub stars, 1000s of downloads

Hey folks, I'm the lead developer of steno and wanted to share our latest update. Steno is a privacy first AI notepad & notetaker for your most sensitive conversations. Problem: Most AI note taking solutions have bots joining your calls, send your data to a third party, working only with one provider (Zoom AI for Zoom) and have usage limits/charge $$ for their service. If you are in government, healthcare, finance or

Tunebar 2.0 – Mini player, lyrics, playlists. The Winamp spirit lives in your menu bar.

[Problem] I wanted an app that was very simple, like Winamp used to be, an easy way to play all my local songs. I feel like streaming made music more of a commodity instead of something you care about, curate, and appreciate. I have my own collection of songs that has followed me around for almost 30 years now and I wanted an app that treats it like the library it is. Simple, local, always within reach from the menu

AutoMailSender — drop a file and it's emailed automatically to preset people (native macOS)

I'm the developer. I kept emailing the same files to the same people every day (receipts to my accountant, shoots to clients, docs to family) and got tired of opening Mail and re-addressing every time. So I built AutoMailSender. You set up your email + recipients once, then: Drop a file → it's emailed to whoever you pick. No compose window. Folder routing: drop into a watched folder → it auto-sends to the linked pers

Mailway — Route email links to any email app or webmail (e.g Gmail)

https://apps.apple.com/app/id6766044904 Problem macOS only lets you pick one default email app. That breaks down fast if you use Gmail for work, Apple Mail for personal mail, Outlook for certain domains, or Fastmail for another account.
