I'm currently using TelemetryDeck, thinking of switching to PostHog's free tier to get finer grain data. What do you use and why?

VirtualProg Turns One Year Old 🎉 About a year ago I introduced VirtualProg to the macOS community. Since then, the app has grown significantly thanks to feedback from users and a lot of late-night development. For those unfamiliar with it, VirtualProg is a native virtual machine manager for macOS built on Apple’s Virtualization Framework. Since the initial release, some of the biggest additions include: 🖥️ Virtual Ma

I am looking for an app both free and paid(small amount) to format my device with ntfs and also need an app that allow me to write and read both on ftp (network) storage (mac only read) Disclaimer: Very new to this

Is there a macOS utility app specifically designed to identify which app or background process is "stealing" or hijacking global keyboard shortcuts? I came across ShortcutDetective, which is designed for this purpose, but it appears to be abandoned software. Are there any alternatives? Thanks!

Problem: The built-in Activity Monitor is solid, but once you need deeper insights or faster workflows, it quickly becomes limiting. ProcessSpy is designed to give power users richer data and more control without dropping into Terminal. Comparison: ProcessSpy vs. Activity Monitor: Compared to Activity Monitor, the free version of ProcessSpy includes: Menu bar popover More detailed process information such as Version,

I've built a macOS app for Google Search Console. Enjoy a native interface for viewing website performance (clicks/impressions), managing sites, adding sitemaps and more. The new macOS client provides a macOS interface for the existing iOS app and includes pop-out graphs. https://apps.apple.com/app/search-panel-search-console/id6745721627 Problem: Google's Search Console website has no dashboard, a clunky interface a

Hermes Desktop TL;DR at bottom I was scrolling through my GitHub feed a couple days ago and stumbled upon a cool-looking OSS tool called Hermes. It's marketed as "The agent that grows with you." Furthermore, I remembered seeing it mentioned in other places as well - Twitter, YouTube... First Impressions Anyways, I went ahead and downloaded the Hermes desktop app on my Mac. Initially, I had downloaded the wrong app. A

I have a powerful Windows desktop at home that I use for development and GPU-heavy work, and a MacBook Air that I take with me when travelling or going to meetings. Occasionally I need to use the full Windows machine remotely from the MacBook - not just access files, but work in Windows apps for a few hours. The home PC can stay powered on, and I have a decent internet connection at home. I am mainly looking for some

Hey! I've been working on this app for almost 4 years and my goal is to make network traffic analysis easier for everyone. Since my previous post last year in this sub was of interest for many, today I'm here to share that Sniffnet has been recently updated to version 1.5 and, among other new features, it now allows to see the list of apps and programs that are using your network bandwidth, making it a step closer to

The Problem McKinley is a vector graphics editor for creating and manipulating SF Symbols, made by Double & Thrice. Instead of having to manually flatten everything to filled paths, you can use fills, strokes, and knockouts, and export directly to SF Symbols format (for dropping into an asset catalog). McKinley supports swapping between the three required weights (ultralight, regular, black), so you can set different

Question from new Mac user: I downloaded a finder replacement app that I really like, but when I go to save a file or open a file from within another app I still get the original Mac Finder. Is there any way to change that to use the app I downloaded? TIA

Hey r/macapps, [Clarifying Note] I incorrectly used [OS] in the title and only realized after a comment asking where the source code was. I instantly noticed that [OS] here means Open Source. SoftVM is currently closed source and distributed through the Mac App Store only. That misunderstanding was completely my mistake, and I sincerely apologize for the confusion. With WWDC and the next macOS release coming soon, a

The Problem: As a developer and data security engineer, I regularly handle files from unknown or untrusted sources. My old workflow was messy and fragmented: separate tools for checksums, hex viewing, EXIF lookup, and document metadata review. It gets risky and time-consuming when you need to verify if a file extension is fake, inspect nested content inside Office/iWork/PDF files, uncover incomplete redactions, or au

I was wondering if anyone has experience using an app to monitor file system changes for the purpose of uninstalling applications, I found a tool called FSMonitor, which seems to do that. I'm not entirely sure how it works, but I assume it tracks which application created each file, allowing you to locate all files created by that app and completely uninstall it.
