By the way, the impact Acorn had on my workflow can’t be overstated, since it was the application that made me move away from Photoshop back then it’s currently installed on all my Macs, even old machines running Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger. None of these is a ‘new app’: Word has been around for a long time I don’t know when flickery first debuted, but the fact that its minimum system requirement is Mac OS X 10.6.6 suggests that the app has been around since Snow Leopard Pixelmator Pro is the newest of the three, but still, its first version was released in November 2017, more than four years ago.Īnd while Pixelmator has indeed become part of my essential tools, I tend to use Acorn more often, and Acorn has been around since 2007. The biggest apps in this short list are Microsoft Word, flickery, and Pixelmator Pro. Most are single-purpose utilities, social media clients, or Safari extensions. I was reflecting on this a few days ago as I was looking at the Purchased section of my account in the Mac App Store app.įirst, as you can see, the apps I’ve purchased or downloaded since 2019 are just a handful. In my case, it’s TextBuddy by Tyler Hall - but it’s truly an outlier in an otherwise flat landscape.
If you’ve been a Mac user for more than a few years, let me ask you a question: what is the newest application you have installed that turned out to be so useful and well-made it’s now part of your essential tools? An app that really got you excited and happy to be a Mac user? For the sake of argument, let’s leave out games (obviously) and single-purpose little utilities.
