Sindre's Apps on My Mac

Subscribe to the AppAddict Newsletter


Whether you know who Sindre Sorhus is or not you still may be using one of his many popular and mostly free apps. Sindre is a full-time open-source developer currently based in Thailand who is responsible for more than 1,000 packages at npm, the world's largest software directory. In his spare time (LOL) he creates wonderful macOS and iOS apps.

He's recently been on a tear with updates, adding new features and dealing with bugs. A couple of apps that used to be free are now paid because of the support demands, according to Sorhus. Most of his recent updates require macOS, but older versions are still available for users who have not upgraded.

Actions for Shortcuts

  • New actions added:
  • Get System Color
  • Get All System Colors
  • Format Text List
  • Is Location Services Enabled
  • Is Screen Saver Active
  • Send Distributed Notification
  • Wait for Distributed Notification

Shareful

Shareful makes the system share menu even more useful by providing some commonly needed share services. The latest release requires macOS 15.

  • Copy - Copy the shared item to the clipboard and so you can quickly paste it into another app.
  • Save As - Choose a directory to save the shared item to.
  • Open In - Open the shared item in any app.

Pandan

Pandan is a time awareness tool, not a traditional time tracker or break reminder. It shows you how long you have been actively using your computer, to make you aware and let you decide when it's time to take a break.

Folder Peek

Folder Peek  is the GOAT of menu bar access apps. I liked XMenu from Devon Technologies, but Folder Peek has more features and is just as rock solid in performance. Folder Peek lets you put folders full of whatever you want on your menu bar. You can make a folder with app aliases for your most used apps or add your entire applications folder. Give your documents folder its own menu bar icon or add an alias of it to another folder. My personal setup is a single folder with aliases for:

  • Home folder
  • Documents
  • Downloads
  • Screenshots
  • Approximately 20 apps


Amazing AI

Generate images from text using Stable Diffusion 1.5. Simply describe the image you desire, and the app will generate it for you

Color Picker

  • Quickly copy, paste, and convert colors in Hex, HSL, and RGB format
  • Show as a normal app or in the menu bar
  • Toggle it from anywhere with a global keyboard shortcut
  • Make the window stay on top of all other windows
