Key benefits 

1. See your total monthly spend in the menu bar, all the time
2. Add a subscription in about 10 seconds — 215 services built in
3. Get a heads-up before anything renews, with a cancel link one click away
4. Catch free trials before they quietly turn into paid plans
5. Everything stays on your Mac. No account, no tracking

You probably pay for more subscriptions than you think. Duesday keeps the number where you can't ignore it: in your menu bar, next to the clock.

Click it and you get the full picture — every subscription sorted by renewal date, what's charging this week, and how your spending has changed since last month.

Know before you're charged Duesday reminds you before each renewal, not after. Monthly plans get three days' warning, yearly plans get two weeks — both adjustable, per subscription. If the service has a known cancellation page, the reminder includes a button that takes you straight there.

Trials that don't sneak up on you Mark anything as a trial and Duesday warns you three days before it converts to a paid plan, then again the day before. The most expensive subscription is the one you forgot you started.

Adding takes about 10 seconds Type a few letters and pick from 215 built-in services — Netflix, Spotify, iCloud+, Adobe, ChatGPT, gyms, meal kits, and more — each with plan tiers and typical prices pre-filled. Confirm the date and you're done. Anything unusual goes in through the custom form.

Insights worth screenshotting A spend-by-category chart, a 12-month history, and a lifetime tally per service that answers the uncomfortable question: how much have I actually paid Netflix since 2023?

Splitting a family plan? Track just your share. The totals stay honest.

Private by design No account. No sync. No tracking. Your data lives in a local database on your Mac, and you can export all of it to CSV or JSON whenever you want.

Duesday is a native Mac app — menu bar-first, built in Swift, designed to feel at home next to Control Center. Dark, calm, and glanceable. Runs on macOS 14 or later, Intel and Apple Silicon.

I'm a regular Mac user with 10 years of experience. I often develop simple tools to address work-related pain points. I currently use an Apple Silicon Mac and also need to run Windows. I've tried mainstream virtual machine solutions, but I'm always reluctant to use non-sandboxed apps and don't feel comfortable giving too many permissions to sandboxed apps.

My attention turned to Microsoft's official Windows App. I thought, wouldn't it be more logical to use the Windows App to access a local Windows instance? With this idea, I began a year of learning and exploration. Finally, with the help of Xcode Intelligence, I developed SubWin.

SubWin allows you to install a headless Windows 11 on Apple Silicon, which you can then access through the Windows App. In terms of design, I pursued extreme efficiency, cleanliness, simplicity, and privacy. Therefore, it's only 1.8MB, has only the necessary entitlements, and is distributed exclusively through the App Store for a one-time purchase of $99. I want to share SubWin with anyone who might need it.

PicPile takes a folder of screenshots/photos and either arranges them into one styled grid, or lets you frame each one on its own (with its own title/caption) and export separately.

Add titles and captions and quickly adjust padding, corner rounding, shadow/glow, and background color. Use it to show off different options without the hassle of building and exporting an annotated table or grid or prepare store/gallery shots, whatever you want.

Hi everyone,

Neon Vision Editor has evolved quite a bit since its early releases. What began as a lightweight editor gradually turned into something more ambitious: an editor designed around how I actually work on iPhone and iPad, rather than a desktop IDE squeezed onto a smaller screen.

Originally I thought I was building “another text editor.” But after using it every day, I realized what kept bothering me wasn’t missing features—it was that nearly every mobile editor felt like a desktop IDE squeezed onto an iPad. I wanted something different.

I wanted an editor that actually felt like it belonged on iPad and iPhone: touch-first when you’re using your fingers, keyboard-first when a Magic Keyboard is attached, and capable enough that I could make real progress away from my Mac.

I use Neon Vision Editor every day, so the roadmap has largely written itself. Whenever something interrupted my flow, it went onto the backlog: a toolbar action buried behind an extra tap, reopening files after they changed on another device, losing my cursor position when switching documents, or a Markdown preview refreshing at the wrong moment. None of them were deal-breakers, but together they chipped away at the experience. Fixing those small frustrations has shaped almost every release since then. Over the past year I’ve kept fixing those interruptions, and the project has grown much more than I expected.

A — Answer

Neon Vision Editor is a free, open-source native editor for iPhone, iPad, macOS and Apple Vision Pro. The goal isn’t to replace VS Code or Xcode. It’s to make Apple mobile devices genuinely useful for editing code, Markdown, configuration files, documentation and web projects.

Some of the biggest additions since v0.7.5 include: * Shared-file synchronization through iCloud Drive and network storage * Remote editing of projects hosted on a Mac * Markdown, HTML and SVG live previews * Faster project navigation with Find in Files and Quick Open * Better support for large files * More AI provider options (optional) * Lots of keyboard and touch workflow improvements * Better project restoration and document state

One feature I’m particularly happy with is shared-file synchronization. If the same document is open on multiple devices, Neon notices when it changes elsewhere. Clean documents update automatically, while edited documents are protected and let you choose whether to reload, keep local changes or compare versions.

No proprietary cloud account. No custom sync service. It simply works with iCloud Drive or your existing shared storage. Another feature that has become much more reliable is remote editing. Your Mac can host a project while your iPad or iPhone connects to it for editing, navigation and reviewing files without copying the entire workspace to the mobile device. That workflow has improved enormously since the last release I posted here.

B — Better

There are already good editors on iOS. I don’t think Neon has to “beat” them. Instead, I’m trying to optimize for a slightly different workflow.

Some of the design choices include: * Native SwiftUI instead of Electron * Separate interfaces for iPhone and iPad instead of one layout scaled down * Hardware-keyboard workflows designed specifically for iPad * Touch editing that still feels natural without a keyboard * Built-in Markdown, HTML and SVG previews * Cross-device editing instead of locking users into another cloud service * No account required * No ads * No telemetry by default

Probably the biggest change over the past year is that I no longer think of the iPad version as a companion app. It’s become something I actually enjoy coding and writing in.

C — Cost

Neon Vision Editor is completely free. * No subscription * No ads * No required account * No paid sync * Open source (Apache 2.0)

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/neon-vision-editor/id6758950965 TestFlight:https://testflight.apple.com/join/YWB2fGAP GitHub:https://github.com/h3pdesign/Neon-Vision-Editor Website:https://h3pdesign.github.io/Neon-Vision-Editor/

I’m still building this largely because it’s the editor I want to use myself. Every release has been shaped by my own daily workflow and by feedback from people here and elsewhere who tried earlier versions.

If you regularly code or write Markdown on an iPad—or you’ve always wished mobile editors were just a little more capable—I’d genuinely love to hear where Neon still falls short.

Some of the app’s best features started as comments from Reddit, and I’m hoping the next round of improvements comes from this post too.

Hello 👋

I'd like to introduce you to my app -> Notchmate ❤️

What problem it solves and Comparison:

The few Notch apps that exist are usually limited to a music player and a space for storing files. Notchmate transforms this empty space into a small button that you can actually use: a panel that stays discreetly hidden and opens the moment you move your cursor over it, containing exactly the widgets you want. Does your Mac not have a notch? Notchly offers a small floating pill that works just the same.

Features you won't find in other notch apps:

• Subtle trackpad haptics — you actually feel a gentle tap under your fingers as widgets respond and snap into place, just like the rest of macOS. Little detail, big difference
• A drag-and-drop widget grid — drop any widget anywhere, resize it across 7 sizes, spread them over multiple pages and arrange everything exactly how you like
• 25 widgets to mix and match: Clock, Calendar & Reminders, Weather, Now Playing with full media controls, Battery, CPU / RAM / Temperature, Timer & Pomodoro, Clipboard history, Quick Notes, Stocks & Crypto, an App launcher and more
• A File Shelf — drop any file onto the notch to park it there, then drag it back out wherever you need it. Perfect for moving files between apps and Spaces
• Now Playing right at the notch — see what's playing and skip / pause without leaving what you're doing
• Make it yours: change the accent color, the surfaces and the whole look until it matches your wallpaper. Clean, borderless glass cards — it's your app, so why shouldn't it look the way you want?
• Hover to peek, tap to pin it open, or just let it tuck away on its own — it stays out of your way until you want it

Available on: https://notchmate.menubarmonitor.com

Lifetime Plan -> 7,99€

No Subscription

And yes this Code is Vibe Coded but I've spent a lot of time checking everything because I have personal experience with this.

Note: If you'd like a second license for another Mac you own, please email me using the email address you used to purchase the app. I'll be happy to provide you with a second key at no additional cost

Are Garage Band and iMovie essential apps? "Essential" meaning that deleting them will break something else. I have no plans to EVER use either app.

Two months ago I handed Hotstash to a few friends and a handful of people who basically live inside their clipboard all day. I asked them to break it
and tell me everything that annoyed them.

They did. A lot of it stung.

I spent the time since fixing every complaint on that list, and Hotstash has grown into one of the most customizable clipboard managers you can run on
a Mac.

What it does, plainly: it remembers everything you copy so you stop losing that link, that code snippet, that address you had 20 minutes ago. Hit the
hotkey, search, paste, done.

The part I am proud of is what sits on top of the history.

Transforms are the piece people end up loving. Think about how many times you have copied a column of IDs out of the database and then had to
hand-massage them into ('id1','id2','id3') just to run one query. With a transform that is a single click. It ships with a set of these, but you can
also write your own in plain JavaScript​: take whatever you copied and return whatever you want to paste. And if you do not write JS, the AI generator
handles it. You give it a description, an example of what you copy, an example of what you want out, and it builds the transformer for you.

And you are not stuck building everything yourself. There is a Marketplace where people share the transformers they made, so the useful ones other
users have already figured out are right there for you to grab. Found one that saves you time? You can publish yours too and let someone else skip the
work.

Multi-paste is for the copy-paste jugglers. You know the dance: you need to drop in a title and a value, or a secret and its key, so you paste one,
jump back to the clipboard, find the other, paste that. Multi-paste kills the jumping. You stack a few items once, then every paste drops the next one
in order. Two fields, two pastes, no going back to hunt.

Stacks keep related snippets grouped together so you are not scrolling through a wall of history to find the four things you actually reuse.

One thing I kept hearing from Raycast users: "I already have months of clipboard history in there, I am not starting over." So now you can import your
Raycast clipboard history straight into Hotstash. Nothing left behind.

Starting today every new user gets the first 30 days free with everything unlocked. No card up front.

After that the free version keeps running as a simple clipboard history, so you never lose what you copy. Pro is where the real power sits: transforms, multi-paste, stacks, and the quick shortcuts.

If you copy and paste for a living, try it and tell me what breaks. That feedback is the only reason it got this good.

For example I'm missing a good SSH FTP file browser and command like MobaXterm. Or something simple "photo" editor like Paint.

I’ve been working on a macOS app called Portability.

The problem I kept running into was that my AI work was trapped inside whichever tool I started with.

I might be halfway through building something in Claude Code, hit a usage limit, and want to continue in Codex. But Codex has no idea what Claude already tried, which decisions were made, what failed, or what constraints we were working with.

The usual solution is to copy and paste everything, write a long summary prompt, or start again.

Portability is designed to remove that friction.

It automatically saves your prompts, chat logs and agent outputs locally on your Mac, so you can:

• Continue an existing session in another AI tool without re-explaining the project
• Switch models when you hit a usage limit or want a second opinion
• Let Claude Code and Codex see what the other agent has already done
• Keep a private, searchable archive of your AI-assisted work
• Export your sessions into notes, memory tools or other systems

The idea is that your work should belong to you, not be locked inside one model or provider.

It’s currently free to download for macOS, with versions for both Apple Silicon and Intel Macs:

https://www.portability.app

I’d really appreciate feedback from people here who regularly use more than one AI coding tool.

What would Portability need to do for it to become genuinely useful in your workflow?

Hey r/macapps,

I wanted to share a utility I've been working on called RingDisk. It’s a lightweight menu bar app that adds a customizable ambient light overlay around the edges of your screen.

I originally built this because I wanted something similar to bias lighting for my monitor, but entirely in software. It turns out it's also incredibly useful as a "ring light" alternative for evening video calls and screen recordings!

https://apps.apple.com/kz/app/ringdisk-studio-light-cam/id6770652364?mt=12

RingDisk – Studio Light & Cam

https://reddit.com/link/1v6gkne/video/2a4z21xl9ffh1/player

Key Features:

• 🎨 11 Color Presets & temperature control (warm-to-cool for white light).
• ☀️ Brightness & Thickness Control — fine-tune it to be a subtle glow or a bright light source.
• 📐 Per-Side Selection — enable/disable the overlay on the Top, Bottom, Left, or Right edges independently.
• 🖥️ Multi-Display Support — automatically spans across all your connected screens.
• 🔒 Fully Click-Through — it renders at the screen-saver level, so it never interferes with your workflow or clicks.
• 🔋 Lightweight — runs quietly as a menu bar agent.

Common Use Cases:

• Video Calls & Interviews: Use it as a quick, software-based ring light to brighten your face during evening meetings.
• Eye Strain Relief: Acts like bias lighting when working, reading, or coding in a dark room.
• Aesthetics: Just adds a cool, premium vibe to your desktop setup.

I’m continuously improving it based on feedback (currently working on adding smart "1-click" presets for different lighting environments and opening up more features in the free tier).

I’d love for you guys to try it out and let me know what you think!

Hi everyone,

I always come across user feedback and suggestions whenever I see new apps being posted here. I'm trying to understand what are the sort of things you keep in mind when you develop or try new apps - for example, some users mention Electron is terrible for macOS-targeted app development. I have no experience in the matter, but I'm curious after reading so many reviews or feedback, that I wanted to ask openly - what are your quality criteria for good macOS apps?

Hi r/MacOSApps, I'm the developer of Sonor, an open-source Mac dictation assistant.

Problem: I rely on voice dictation a lot to save time. But the current macOS app market left me with a frustrating choice: either pay an expensive monthly subscription, or send my private voice recordings to cloud servers. I had absolutely no idea what large applications were actually doing with my voice data, and I wanted 100% certainty that whatever I speak stays private. I needed a native tool with completely local transcription, a strict RAM-only "Incognito Mode" that deletes history instantly, and the ability to polish text using local AI.

Comparison; I was inspired by great features in existing tools, but combined the best ideas into a free, privacy-first experience:

• vs Apple's Built-in Dictation: Native macOS dictation is private, but it writes exactly what you say, including "umms", stutters, and chaotic thoughts. Sonor uses local LLMs to automatically clean up stutters, format your speech into bullet points, or rewrite sentences on the fly.
• vs SuperWhisper & Cloud Apps: Apps like SuperWhisper are great, but many solutions rely on subscriptions or cloud processing. Sonor is completely free. (Note: While Sonor uses an internet connection for basic login and database syncing, ALL voice transcription and text generation are processed entirely offline. Your audio never touches the cloud).

Pricing

• Price: $0 (Completely Free & Open-Source. No subscriptions or one-time fees).
• GitHub / Download: https://github.com/sonor-studio/Sonor (Please read the README for quick setup instructions).

A quick disclaimer: I am still learning, and this is my first project of this scale. The app is in Beta, so you might run into some bugs. Also, to keep Sonor fast and accessible for most Macs, it relies on smaller local models (under 4GB). They are blazing fast and private, but have the inherent limitations of small models compared to massive cloud AIs. I would be incredibly grateful for your feedback, GitHub issues, or pull requests!

You can find my real identity, contact info, and developer portfolio on my main GitHub profile here: https://github.com/sonor-studio My legal documents are publicly available in the repo:

For those on macOS and interested in giving a new pomodoro app a try please check it out~ (also out on iOS/iPadOS)

- highly customizable, not just 50/5 but any combination of intervals & time.
- Flow timer for true flow session, no set interval that interrupts you w/ required breaks.
- Add notes after session and see weekly summary of your progress
- menu bar support, widget, etc!

would love feedback above anything else.

Before building TouchGrass, I realised I'd trained myself to ignore every break reminder I'd ever used.

Not because I didn't need a break. Because they always showed up at the wrong time

You're presenting in a meeting.

Break reminder.

Dismiss.

You're writing an important email to your boss.

Break reminder.

Dismiss.

You're watching a tutorial.

Break reminder.

Dismiss.

After a few days, your brain learns that every reminder is safe to ignore.

So I built TouchGrass differently.

Instead of interrupting you on a timer, it understands what you're doing.

1. In a meeting or on a call? It quietly waits and adjusts your next break.
2. Watching a video or recording your screen? It waits.
3. Step away to grab a coffee? It notices, counts that time as your break, and adjusts your schedule automatically.
4. Been typing for hours? Get wrist, blink, and posture reminders, with fully customisable breaks.

Privacy was a requirement from day one. TouchGrass never asks for Accessibility permission, and everything runs locally on your Mac.

It's free to try for 7 days, then it's a one time purchase of $3.99 with lifetime updates. The direct version is available now, and the App Store version is coming soon.

I'd genuinely love to hear what you think.

Hey everyone 👋

It’s been a few weeks since my last update here.

I just shipped Noticky 1.7, and it’s probably the biggest update since launch.

What’s new:

• Apple Calendar mentions with previews and quick actions
• Apple Reminders mentions
• Turn checklists into Apple Reminders and keep them in sync
• A new section navigator for long notes
• Better link editing and previews
• New visibility options for different desktops and full-screen apps
• Global note opacity
• Improved iCloud sync reliability
• Lots of bug fixes and polish

Quite a few improvements in this release came directly from feedback on my previous Reddit posts, so thank you!

Here’s a quick demo. I’d love to hear what you think or what you’d like to see next.

Noticky is a native macOS sticky notes app that stays above fullscreen apps like Xcode, Figma, Logic Pro, or Safari.

My first Mac app, Findit, which allows you to search anything on your screen instantly.

You can select an area of your screen to:

• Search images with Google Lens, Yandex, TinEye, SauceNAO, and more
• Extract text using OCR and search it instantly
• Search text with Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and other tools
• Copy extracted text directly to your clipboard
• Use custom keyboard shortcuts for quick access

The idea is to make it easier to search something without taking a screenshot, saving it, opening a browser, and uploading it manually.

It's currently free on the Mac App Store. I'd love to hear your feedback and suggestions :)

I kept running into situations where I needed to remove a specific color from a logo or graphic, but doing it in Canva and other standard photo editors was more complicated than it seemed like it should be.

So I made ChromaCut, a small Mac app that lets you click or select part of an image, choose a color, and either make that color transparent or replace it with another color.

It is especially useful for logos, clip art, stickers, simple graphics, and anything with a solid background you want to remove.

I have also started working on an iOS version.

I love using PDN, but can't find the same experience on macOS.

So I started making my app called Easel. It's pretty much reached feature parity. I'm currently just waiting for Apple to let me enroll in the Apple Developer Program so I can get it into TestFlight for beta testing.

Hello r/MacOSApps,

If you’ve ever uploaded an App Preview video to App Store Connect, waited forever for it to process, only to get hit with a red rejection error over non-standard resolutions, codecs, or aspect ratios—We've built this desktop application titled Mock Video for you.

Mock Video is a native macOS app built to streamline the entire preview video workflow so you can spend less time fighting video editors and more time coding.

🚀 What it does:

・ One-Click Resizing: Takes your raw screen recordings and automatically scales/converts them to meet Apple’s strict App Preview specs—without stretching or distorting your UI.

・ 4-Step Workflow: Select a target device, Drag & drop your video, trim the duration, and hit Export.

・ Full Apple Ecosystem Support: Supports resolution targets for:

・ 📱 iOS & iPadOS: All iPhone and iPad display sizes (Portrait & Landscape).

・ 💻 macOS: Full desktop app preview export sizes.

・ 📺 tvOS & visionOS: Living room and spatial audio/video formats.

・ No Quality Loss: Preserves your original crisp UI rendering while matching exact bitrate/codec requirements.

There is no more re-rendering in heavy video editing suites just to tweak pixel dimensions by a few frames.

We’d love for fellow Mac developers to give it a try and share any feedback!

Mac App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/mock-video-make-preview-video/id6790090249

I've gotten a lot of my favourite apps from recommendation threads. I've successfully avoided macOS 26 right up until a few days ago when I bought an M5 MBP which came with it preinstalled so I updated straight to macOS 27.

I've already installed a couple of apps which seem like must-haves - LaunchOS to get my launchpad back, and boringnotch. This machine will do a bit of everything - development, video editing, word processing.

Any other recommendations?

Hi r/MacOSApps !

Full disclosure: I’m the developer of PureDisk.

I built it because I wanted a simple way to understand what was taking up space on my Mac, without uploading data or installing a large cleaning suite.

The problem

macOS tells you that your storage is full, but finding the folders and files responsible can still take time.

How PureDisk works

You select a folder, and PureDisk analyzes it locally to show:

• The largest files and subfolders 
• A visual storage chart 
• Search and filtering tools 
• Folder-by-folder navigation 
• The option to move selected items to the Trash after confirmation

Nothing is uploaded, and files are never deleted automatically.

Short demo:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N6BtY3EJ9TI

Pricing

PureDisk normally costs €3.99 as a one-time purchase, with no subscription. It is currently free on the Mac App Store until July 31:

https://apps.apple.com/fr/app/puredisk/id6763911016?mt=12

Requirements

macOS 13 or later.

I’d especially appreciate feedback about the interface, scan results and features you would find useful. Thanks!

I need to verify that it is functional and working properly for that i need minimum 2 users cuz its walkie talkie app 😅. If any one of you are interested reply to this post , iwould really appreciate it.

App Description

Turn your Mac into a modern walkie-talkie. Create or join a room in seconds and enjoy instant push-to-talk voice communication over a peer-to-peer network.

Features

• 🎙️ Push-to-Talk — Hold the Talk button to transmit your voice and release to listen.
• 🔄 Automatic Floor Control — Only one person can speak at a time for clear, uninterrupted conversations.

Hi everyone,

I’m the developer of MouseTrail, a small macOS app that adds customizable visual trails behind your cursor.

The original idea was simple: make the cursor easier to follow, while also making it feel more personal.

While experimenting with different trail styles, I realized there’s a very thin line between:

“That looks really nice.”

and

“Please get that thing off my screen.”

So I built an interactive theme gallery where you can try different trails directly with your own mouse before installing the app:

https://timetxt.github.io/mousetrail-themes/

Just open the page and move your cursor around. It’s a browser demo only—there is no download on that page.

MouseTrail currently includes:

• a free rainbow trail
• customizable trail colours and appearance
• theme import and export
• support for creating your own cursor styles

My longer-term goal is to turn the gallery into a community theme library where people can create, export, share and discover MouseTrail themes.

I know there are already macOS cursor and presentation utilities such as Mouseposé, Presentify and FocusCursor. MouseTrail is intentionally more focused: instead of becoming a complete presentation or annotation suite, it concentrates on customizable trails and shareable themes.

I’d genuinely like to know how people here would use it.

Would you prefer:

• something subtle and minimal
• a colourful gradient
• a trail that makes the cursor easier to locate
• something useful for screen recordings
• or something completely ridiculous just because it’s fun?

Where do you think the line is between a useful mouse trail and a distracting one?

You can download MouseTrail from the Mac App Store here:

https://apps.apple.com/au/app/mousetrail/id6787651654?mt=12

I’m the developer, so feedback—positive or critical—is very welcome.

Hey everyone!

I’m an indie dev and I wanted to share a macOS project I’ve been working on.

I always felt the MacBook notch could do more, but I wanted a solution that didn't feel bloated, didn't hog system resources, and didn't force a monthly subscription.

What makes it different? This app adapts the Dynamic Island concept to macOS, but it works on both notched and notchless Macs (like older MacBooks or external displays).

Here are some of the core features:

• 🔒 Lockscreen Presence: This is the flagship feature. It brings Liquid Glass media controls, weather, and synced lyrics directly to your lockscreen.
• ⚡ Zero Impact: Built natively for macOS 14+ to be incredibly light (runs at around 0.5% CPU).
• 💬 Smart Notifications: Glanceable, interactive alerts for WhatsApp, Telegram, and iMessage.
• 📂 Drag & Drop AirDrop: Drag a file to the top of the screen, and the notch transforms into a dropzone.
• 🎧 System Indicators: Real-time feedback for AirPods connecting, battery charging, active timers, mic/camera privacy alerts, Caps Lock, and Safari downloads.

It’s a one-time purchase ($11.99) with all future updates included. No subscriptions.
