⚠️ IMPORTANT: With the new macOS Sonoma update, there's a native Mac battery widget now - so there's not really a need for the Batteries app (03:58) anymore! Thought I'd let you know so you don't end up buying the app and discovering this afterward. I apologize!

One of the best Mac App channels out there. I love that you don't waffle on for 2 minutes beforehand but just get straight into it and deliver important information. Also love that you consistently show the prices of the apps. Keep it up!
Thank you for the positive feedback - means the most!
@Devan, I love that we find each other over the internet somehow at different places. Absolutely loved this channel and the quick and crisp way in which he gives value right away. Also the apps are genuine useful and not just filling content.
I feel very strongly that you are on your way to much international continued success. Great content . And for your marketing needs I’m sixty eight years old , St. Louis Missouri. Advanced university degrees and professor . Still working. Keep kicking arse.❤
Won't even lie, this was my favorite best app vid in awhile. Getting me to swap from Alfred is huge in itself but zero regrets.
Now that's a great thing to hear - I'm glad you found the video helpful. Thanks!
When you get big, remember me, your OG subscriber. Superb video
If that happens, I sure will! Thank you so much for your support!!
remember us
@@macvincesome big MrBeast moment here
f ! hes good !🙈
I’ve gone through like 6 of your videos in a row. Clever and insightful. I hardly ever comment and subscribe but yo you get everything 👍🏼
Great video. You've highlighted apps that are really useful. Thanks!
A lot of useful information and apps in this video. What I love the most is the creativity and effort you put into your videos. I had to blink twice to make sure this isn't a 4 million subscribers channel because of the thought and time put. I love what you did there with the quicktime player to have it play your camera footage. Brilliant! Keep it up
Wow, that's great to hear! Thank you so much for your kind words and positive feedback.
You are so helpful with these tips. I have to replay a lot, but catching up. New to Mac and there’s a lot to learn. Thank you for sharing!😊
Again, thank you so much for your kind words! 😊 Enjoy your new Mac - I'm sure it'll feel like home in no time!
Hello, Vince
I appreciate your presentation style, and the video editing is also excellent, specifically the transitions.
Thank you very much - that‘s a great motivation for me to keep producing videos like this one! Glad you enjoyed it.
ngl this is a pretty good video, there are probably hundreds of “cool mac apps” vids but they mostly repeat the same names over and over again, this has been the first in a long while that has actually shown fresh apps i didn’t know about
The best thing about raycast is their extension store, which can replace many of the other apps on this list. The emoji and color picker are two examples.
True, thanks for mentioning it!
Hey, thanks for this video, itj definitely expanding my horizons when it comes to using my mac :)
So useful! Thank you so much!!! 🙏
I’ve seen quite a lot of videos about useful Mac apps but this one is very well-thought-out. So glad this channel appeared on my feed!
Thank you for your kind words, made my day! :)
Damn, small channel with such a good content! I’m subscribing, thank you for the tips!
always a joy to watch the editing
Thank you so much, man! It really helped a lot. I didn't know about most of those tips before watching your video.
Glad to hear it! Thanks for letting me know :)
Subscribed bro👌after using Mac for 8 years, i feel like a beginner. But your videos are very helpful to get back on track.
Thanks man! Happy to help! Btw love your profile pic and username - big big bang theory fan here!
Great video! Honestly surprised that you only had a few subs. Keep it up!
Great video! Thanks for putting so much effort on this. Super detailed, concise, and helpful video.
Thank you! Glad you found it helpful! :)
Thank you for the informative video through your own unique creative lens.
Appreciate your kind words, thanks!
Thank you fir this video ! All your content is interesting because it goes directly to the point and it's very clear ! By the way, Mac GPT & Bing crash a lot in my Ventura (MacBook from 2015 with intel processor so no M) ^^
Interesting video as always - thanks again!
I have watched many videos for mac apps but yours are always the best, Keep up the good work! Nice editing too!
Thank you! That‘s so great to hear :)
awesome stuff man thanks for sharing
thanks bro!
I like the way you create your videos. Very concise and straight to the subject! Congrats!
Thanks for the great feedback, that‘s good to hear!
Image optimization I do on daily basis.. Love the app recommendation
Hello, The algorithm just proposed your video in my feed, I just finished watching and I enjoyed the quality and the edit, transitions are smooth, the sounds is clear and everything is well explained,
Appreciate your work and I just subscribed, I hope your channel gets the attention it deserves soon!
Thanks for watching and subscribing, Joseph! What a kind comment - hope to hear from you again soon. Welcome to the channel!
EXCELLENT video! My new mac is arriving today and I am definitely checking some of these out to configure it better. It’s a mini with an LG monitor and I’m thrilled to learn there is an app that can help control volume and brightness - something I was afraid I’d have to just deal with. As a designer I can’t believe I hadn’t known about that color picker, either. Definitely giving that a try as well!
Great!!! Big thanks - and enjoy your new Mac Mini with its new apps! 😊
New follower, just the content I signed up for, well put, love your vlog style, different and fresh.
Looking forward to more great content
Thanks for your kind words! That's great to hear.
No idea how I haven't seen your stuff earlier!
I already use most of these apps and know all of them but I still found your video incredibly engaging.
Keep it going mate :)
Wow, what a great thing to hear! Thank you so much for letting me know - made my day!
Geez thank you so much for this video, I work as an illustrator and I'm new to Mac, System Color picker is an absolute game changer for me, thank you!
Thanks for letting me know, it's great to hear about a real-life example where one of my recommended apps turned out to be useful! Have fun with it!
absolute legend. thanks a lot. never seen such a good tech tip vid
Wow, what an incredible compliment! Thank you!!!
Amazingly presented and thought out video! Would love to see a how I made it style video showing the animations and the tools you use.
A lot to learn from you! Keep it up!!
Thank you so much for the positive feedback, that‘s really motivating! I‘ll definitely consider making a how to video one day, right now I‘m still learning and trying to improve the editing of these screen recording videos :)
just surfing around recommend and found your video. I have to say that your video is better than most of macos's video I found in the internet cuz I use 6 of apps you're recommending and I fall in love with 2 others (Popclip + Sleeves) thank you for the video!
Really great to hear that you found the recommendations useful and they were in line with your needs! Thanks for watching!!

Thanks for the kind words! 😊
The editing on this video is excellent, great job
Much appreciated!
Thanks for the video! Nice tips for apps 🙂
Thanks for watching the video! Glad I could help :)
Another good episode with some surprising gems. Thanks! ... I see Alfred and Raycast recommended consistently by several UA-cam creators. I've tried both and have never been impressed. So many highlights from these utilities are available and work fine in Spotlight. Can you consider a presentation on scenarios where Raycast or Alfred are clearly superior over Spotlight? I suspect I would appreciate your thoughts and unique presentation style on this topic. Thanks, again!
You can literally do anything in Alfred. For example empty the trash instantly, start a FaceTime call much faster, scrape a website und show the result right in the Alfred search bar, translate text right in the search bar, change audio input output devices mich faster, share urls much faster, control windows. Literally everything you can imagine off, the only thing is if you don’t find a workflow in the internet you have to program/build it yourself.
Thanks again, Mike! That‘s great to hear! sure, good idea, I’ll definitely consider making a video about that. Maybe even some UA-cam shorts.
Raycast has a lot of extensions like clipboard history
Great video, thanks for making us aware of all these brilliant open source apps.
My pleasure! Thanks for your great feedback!
I just watched 3 videos and became a fan 💕
Your support means the world! Thanks and welcome to the channel!!!
Cool. Loved it.
Excellent video 🎉
Your video quality 👏🏽👏🏽
Instantly downloaded monitor control thank you, subed
Great that it's useful to you, thanks for the sub!
Genau das was ich gebraucht habe! Great content! I liked and subscribed
Freut mich! Danke dir and thank you! :D
Great job ❤
Thank you! 😄
Great video and great apps!
Love the selection of apps
Good to hear! Thank you!
Thank you so much!!! I love how many of the apps you recommended is free of charge - i would never have found them otherwise!
Monitor control, raycast, rocket and self control are my favourites on this list, i will definitely install them on my new mac (my current one is broken.)
i have a question though, do you know any apps that lets me customise keybinds on an external keyboard?
incredible editing by the way!! thank you for taking the time to help us and have a good day 😁
Thank you!! That's great to hear!! If you're looking specifically for more free apps, I've made a video with only free Mac apps - so feel free to check it out 😊 Glad to hear your kind words! And I'm sorry, I've never tried an app for that. You can remap some keys of your keyboard in the System Settings: > Keyboard > Shortcuts. Choose an item from the left pane, and then select the current key shortcut. Type the new command you want to use. However, you can't completely remap the keyboard. I've only heard of the app KeyboardMaestro, however, I don't know if that's what you're looking for. Sorry I couldn't be of more help and you too have a good day!! 😊
Great production quality
thanks for the video mate, great extensions🫰
Thanks mate! Glad you found some new apps!
It shows that you dedicate time to the edition of each little detail of the video. Keep it up!! 🎉
Thank you so much! That‘s really great to hear! Glad you enjoyed another one of my videos 😊
Thank you for not talking about Alfred. I'm just about tired of every Mac App video spending the entire watch time talking about that app. I just want to know about other apps!
That being said, amazing video. Love your channel. Subscribed!
Thank you so much for the great feedback! 😊
the editing is so cool
Nice video, style and visuals
New sub!
Thank you!! Welcome to the channel!
Hello Vince, is System Color Picker better than the preinstalled Digital Color Meter? What makes the SCP App better?
Also I wanted to say thank you so much for your videos. I just bought a new MacBook Pro Max M3 and I was a former Windows User. So I was firstly completely lost haha.
Bro, Weltklasse Video und tolle Tipps. Mach bitte weiter 😊
Danke dir!
I just found your channel, just subscribed. Great information. Thank you. I'm a hardcore Mac user.
That's great to hear - much appreciated!
Nice! I did research for color picker apps and NOBODY mentioned System Color Picker. It's free, it uses the built-in UI, and it shows a history. 🔥
GREAT! I use System Color Picker all the time and love it! Thanks for writing that comment 😊
thank u! for real
Top tier content, new sub🔥✅
Thanks a ton! Welcome to the channel!

Love your channel... How do you validate that these third party apps are safe to use?
For the quality of content you put out... you need more subscribers. Thanks a ton Vince.
Thanks for the high praise, much appreciated!
Thank you very much!
MacGPT ist denke ich mein absoluter Favorit! Klingt echt insane

Downloading every app, they're all so useful. The emoji one will save me and the new alfred for sure
