These are some of the apps I can't live without. Running on a MacBook Air M5 and iPhone 17. Last updated January 27, 2026.
What I actually use every day.

SideNotes (quick notes to capture thoughts on MacOS)
- This is one of my favorite apps! It allows you to use a keyboard shortcut to quickly capture a note anywhere, anytime. It helps me offload mental tasks to try and remember everything going on.

Keyboard Maestro (automations/text shortcuts)
CleanClip (clipboard manager)
CleanShot X (screenshot tool)
Clop (image size optimizer)
Swish (window size adjustment)

GCal (pop up google calendar that activates w/ keyboard shortcut)
Weatherly (weather menubar icon)
BatFi (battery app/stats)
Some links above are referral links - if you sign up through one, we both get a free month or two. I only list tools I already pay for and use.
