Looking for feedback on a macOS focus & productivity app I built
Hey folks 👋I’ve been building a focus & productivity app for macOS (Pomodoro, timer, Kanban-style tasks) and recently published it on the App Store. This started as a personal project to solve my own focus problems, and now I’m trying to understand how real users experience it.I’m not here to hard-sell anything, I’m genuinely looking for feedback:What feels intuitive vs confusing?What would you expect from a focus app that’s missing?What would make you not use it after a week?If you’re into productivity tools or have strong opinions about Pomodoro / focus workflows, I’d love to hear your thoughts. Happy to answer questions or share more context if helpful.👉 Focuz – Productivity (macOS App Store)

Best way to get a transcript from a Teams/Google Meet call?
Hey all!I am currently job hunting and have been doing a lot of interviews. One thing I’d like to do is get a transcript from these interviews so I can analyze them with AI and learn from them. Ideally, this would be using an app that is free. I have tried an app called trilla, but had a ton of issues with it and couldn’t get the transcription to work. I have also tried using cleanshot to record the entire call, but then wasn’t sure how to extract the transcript from it. I also don’t like that cleanshot grays out the rest of the screen outside of what is being recorded. I know there’s an app called granola, but it’s not free. Any suggestions?

Why zero decent email apps!?
My requirements are pretty simple: (1) native Gmail API (not IMAP) so there is two-way sync with labels, out of office, etc. (I’m on Workspace); and (2) a UI with some actual color and depth so I can differentiate emails and not look at white/black blobs of undifferentiated text. The two I’ve tried that meet the first requirement: Mailbird and Mimestream, but I hate the colorless, flat, minimalist walls of text. I need emails, attachments and other items to stand out so I can quickly get a quick sense of what’s going on at a glance. Why is it so hard? I just want something similar to Outlook for Windows ten years ago - with a lot of color, depth and 2-way sync. Customization (eg filters, rules) is a bonus. Would pay top dollar for this.

A local app that summarizes your emails, calendar, reminders, and messages using MLX or Apple Intelligence
I've been seeing a lot of apps like this pop up lately, but they all send your data to cloud LLMs
This is an open-source web app that does everything locally. Extracts emails from Apple Mail, calendar events, reminders, and iMessages. ( Mail app must be in use) Summarizes everything using local models (MLX or Apple Intelligence)One-click "Daily Overview" that combines all sources into a single digest for quick glanceQ&A chat - ask follow-up questions about any email, calendar appointments or messagesWorks with MLX models or Apple Intelligence on macOS 26+.If you already have MLX models downloaded (from LM Studio, Hugging Face, etc.), you can point the app to them directly. Otherwise it'll download models automatically.GitHub: https://github.com/Joaov41/local-digest

New to macOS - how dangerous is it to bypass the Apple security warning and install an app from GitHub?
Hi allNew to macOS and really enjoying the whole discovery mode I'm in. Quite the rabbit hole for me and I'm definitely still in the honeymoon phase with my MacBook Air M4 lol.I was looking at an app I found over at MacMenuBar: https://macmenubar.com/thock/ As a complete layman, I obviously went to the app's GitHub page and downloaded the .zip file with the actual application in it - have done this a dozen of times since buying my new toy.When trying to open the app I got for the very first time a warning message saying that "Apple could not verify “Thock” is free of malware that may harm your Mac or compromise your privacy." After doing some research, I was rather surprised to see it's actually genuinely not recommended to open apps which cannot be verified, even if they're coming from GitHub.Shall I just put it in the bin? Thanks for your tips & tricks!

Built a landing page for Lever, and assistant that extracts context (launching Q1, looking for feedback)
hey y'all! I just pulled an all-nighter finishing the landing page for Lever (AI context engine) and wanted to share before I start building the actual product.so I got pretty tired of the ChatGPT/Claude back and forth loop. like every single time it goes smth like:me: "Write an email to..."chat: "What tone?"me: "Professional but friendly"chat: "Who's the recipient?"me: "My manager"chat: "What's the context?"and so on. this genuinely got frustrating after a while (but more importantly, time consuming), so I'm building Lever. You press a hotkey, speak what you needLever sees your screen context (Gmail thread, Google Doc, code file)Asks smart questions based on what you said + what it seesYou answer with voiceGet the output or a prompt right at your cursorthere's two modes, a generate output mode, where you get the final result like an email, a document, some code, whatever AND, a generate prompt mode, which crafts a prompt for you to send to whatever LLM you wanna use. as of today, i'm done with the landing page and i'm also currently building the app. should have an mvp ready in the next 2-3 weeks.but before i go all in i'd love some feedback on:Does this solve a real problem for you?Would you pay $10-20/month for this?Is the landing page clear or confusing?or anything else really. i'd even be willing to hop on call anytime to listen to your feedback. check it out: https://lever.sh :)also happy to answer questions if anything's unclear. this is my first real macOS app so I'm learning as I go lol

Tip of my tongue. Art/Design App
Hey All - I came across a post like, early December? It was for an art/design app that combined the functionality of three of the app developer's previous apps. It could take images and make them look like they were on a game boy screen (bit crush? I guess is the term) or make pretty intense vector repeating patterns etc. I might have seen it as part of the Black Friday posts. Just wondering if this is tracking with anyone and if you could share the name of the app, apps or developer. I'll keep looking tho.

Alternative to Cotypist?
Is there any viable alternative to Cotypist that will not turn into a subscription model?While I think Cotypist is good, I don't think a subscription is meaningful for something that does all processing locallyI'm more than happy to pay for something that has major new releases every 2-3 years, for which a nominal upgrade fee for existing users would be fineAny ideas would be welcome

For those who regularly ask 'what apps would you be interested in?'
Make a polished reliable Menu bar app that won't break with future macOS updates.I've made a previous post on this on the buggy Ice menu bar app.The most frequent issue I face is mostly that I click twice or thrice then the second bar appears below the menu bar, often with a lag. Ice is still in Beta for their Tahoe release and have still not solved the Tahoe issue out.Most comments recommended Barbee. But even that is buggy. Some menu bar items are not visible yet they are present in the menu bar. There's also gaps in the menu bar. And the worse is an unresponsive dev who has never responded to any of my emails or support tickets.This hot mess should be fixed by Apple because they created this issue. But if you're a new dev and want to build an app that people desperately need, I’d recommend you to build a menu bar app.
