Productive Mac Apps

Edit: Updated on 28-10-2023

I have been using a MacBook pro since the end of 2019. These are the different apps I use which are super productive for me:

• Krisp
  • Krisp’s AI-powered solution removes background noise and echoes from meetings, leaving only a human voice.
  • Every day you get 60 minutes of free noise cancellation from your microphone and speaker.
  • It really does noise cancellation well, very well.
• RayCast
  • RayCast is your Mac’s personal assistant. It is a spotlight on steroids.
  • Earlier I was using Alfred. However, the RayCast personal free version provides many more features than the free version of Alfred.
• Shottr
  • The feature-rich, fast, and free best screenshot tool ever.
  • It can annotate, pixelate, measure pixel distance scroll screenshots, and many more.
  • You won’t regret installing it.
• Thunderbird
  • I use Thunderbird as my all-in-one email client.
• LanguageTool - Online Grammar, Style & Spell Checker
  • Alternative to Grammarly: almost all features and cheaper.
• f.lux: software to make your life better (justgetflux.com)
  • Screen color changer for betterment of eyes
• Espanso - A Privacy-first, Cross-platform Text Expander
  • An ultimate productivity tool to save typing characters.
• AppCleaner (freemacsoft.net)
  • Deletes all residual files from Apps.
