Is there a non-subscription version of Drafts?

CleanShot is only 1 year of updates for the fee - otherwise it’s extra ££
Love the app and happily pay for the updates :slight_smile:

Yes, the non-pro version.

A lot of great apps mentioned so far. One I use on the regular not mentioned yet is Gui Rambo’s wonderful AirBuddy. Highly recommended if you use AirPods with your Mac, makes connecting and managing them way easier!

Better Touch Tool. It is $2.99!

Where did you see that?

I see $8.50 for 2 years: folivora.ai - Great Tools for your Mac!

(I bought the lifetime license, which currently is $20.50)

I use v2 for getting notifications on my MacBook Pro when my iPhone, iPad, or Apple Watch is fully charged.

Super useful (to me)!

Hi, Rob!

I just bought it in the Mac App Store.

I just bought it in the Mac App Store.

BetterTouchTool is not available in the App Store (in my country).

Did you mean BetterSnapTool?

Rob, You’re right! LOL!!.

Better Touch Tool is not in the App Store.

I actually started with BST myself.

Using that purchase I could (also) use BTT for free for a while (promo from the author) and then I purchased the lifetime license.

Both great Apps! (BTT includes BST functionality; you don’t need to buy both)

Does BBEdit count? I’ve paid for this “one time” app about a dozen times over the years, starting with version 4.5.1 on CD.

Is that red one PDF expert? They really need to just use the iPad icon on the Mac. The Mac icon looks massive!

Yes, it is PDF Expert. I always have the Dock auto hide on the Mac as I always use Aflred to launch apps. I hide it on the iPad if that was an option. :slight_smile:

Dang, I’ve got to mention Pixelmator Pro just because no one else has (regular Pixelmator doesn’t count.) I use Affinity at work and Pixelmator Pro at home. I think Affinity may be the more productive piece of software as far as requirements-meeting output over time goes, but Pixelmator Pro is just a pleasure to use and more creative for me. I hope it’s selling well…

ThanksI I saw the price on it and grabbed it!

But I am unable to hide windows and the windows are too small… even though I quit the application! I tried rebooting and that didn’t work.

I also bought Magnet last week maybe.

Both apps pretty much do the same thing.

Terrific topic, btw!

iPad
Procreate- I just love it! It’s for photos, art. I think the price is up to a grand total of $10.

iPad and Mac
Agenda (at least I can use it on a Mac.) I need to upgrade but “All in good time!” Works great as is.
