So for most of my life, I’ve been knee-deep (more than most) in the Microsoft world of Active Directory, SharePoint, Exchange, etc. In 2013 I received the Microsoft MVP Award in the Windows Expert-IT Pro category. I switched to Macs back in 2018 after using PCs exclusively for over 20 years. Hopefully, you’ll find an awesome new Mac app or setting in this list that will help make your life easier! I’ve also included some of the tweaks and settings I change whenever I get a new Mac or reinstall macOS. So to keep from repeating myself over and over, I’ve compiled a list of what I think are the best Mac apps. If an app saves me money or 20 clicks a day, I’m all for it! It’s also just fun trying new software to see how the developer approaches a problem.Īnother reason for this post is that visitors, friends, and even family are always asking me which apps I use for specific tasks. 🤓 I’ve spent hundreds of hours diving into betas, trials, etc. I’ll be the first to admit that I don’t usually like “list posts.” However, when it comes to different apps to streamline my productivity, I definitely nerd out a little bit.
