You can only take one Mac app to a desert island. Which one is it?

[WorksOnMyComputer]

I'm totally over subscription based apps. As soon as I see that is the only option its off the list.

[dannewton]

What’s the benefit of roboform over apple Keychain?

[konrad]

8:30 You forgot to mention, that beeper is in a closed beta. I applied months ago, but still wasn't granted access yet.

[hardik]

This is great information. Keep sharing. Thank you.

[adamburke]

I did use Spark for awhile, but I’m a student and it wouldn’t let me sign into my student email while Apple Mail did.

[mileusna]

I use Word to write blog posts 😭 Never thought ther might be an app for that.

[TommyDuncann]

I love your videos, however the cuts to the camera behind the camera are always jarring for me completely takes me out of the focus of the video. Not sure why but thought I'd mention it.

[SteinarS]

I use almost all of the Mac apps you listed, but also Drafts, Raycast, Paste, Cleanshot among others.

MacWhisper - Privately transcribe text from video and audio files. Supports multiple languages. If needed, it will also very quickly translate the transcribed text from one language to another. There is a free version and an inexpensive pro version.

Hi Mark. Have a question, do you know how power hungry is Beeper? Are even more compared to Sidkick? Don't know if. You know that one? Thank you.

It’s Marks view on writing apps which interests me most in this video as this seems to be a bit more of a category than a specific app. First he tells us to use word, then he says don’t use it. I get that people have too much of a reliance on word when there are often cheaper and better alternatives available. I get that Ulysses has its appeal to certain audiences because of its clean interface, but it’s pointless for me to use since it’s subscription based and I wouldn’t get value for money from using it. But my question then is if he isn’t recommending word, why isn’t he discussing apples own pages or another even another alternative? There’s more functionality in pages than some people realise while overall having a relatively clean look

[ctjh]

Great video. Would love to use Fantastical but refuse to pay a subscription. Where do you get those grey and black squares you have in the background and on desk??

[arnharchik]

I am intrigued by Beeper. Will check it out. Thank you. Luv your vids.

[johnleune]

Hi Mark, thanks for another great video. I’ve used (or still use) most of the apps you mentioned. Beeper I didn’t know, sounds interesting. Craft is my favourite note taking app. It looks great, is easy to use and offers a ton of options to create a great PKM system.

[immiandsaffi]

Love the video! But I love the t shirt more!! Old school rave🙂. RIP Keith 😔

[MoreChannelNoise]

at the beginning of each app intro you should say if they are a paid app and how much

[ThatMarkGilroy]

I’ve been using Spark for a while now and it’s a beast. The baked-in AI is getting really good too.

[TheEmrickman]

I use pdf editors and pdf scanning apps all the time. Different ones on my iPad than my iMac since I bought the apps at different times.

[marcyboy]

I love Morgen. It's Things 3 + Fantastical combined in one app
