Eternal Storms Software - ScreenFloat. Power up your Screenshots

#.blogit #app #macos #screenshot | Matthias Gansrigler has released v2 of ScreenFloat, one of my favorite apps years ago. A lot of its functionality was replaced by CleanShot X for me, but the shots browser, tagging, and smart folders set it apart. The basic idea is you can float a screenshot above all other windows and it follows you between spaces, but v2 goes a lot further. Check it out.

Pins

#.blogit #app #bookmarking #ios #macos #pinboard | "A modern Pinboard app for 2021." Mac and iOS. It's new and currently being developed, which sets it apart from every other Pinboard app available on macOS right now. I would be sold on it if I could find a URL handler for adding a new bookmark. Maybe it's there, but not documented...

Paletro — Command Palette in any applications

#.blogit #app #command #keyboard #macos #shortcut | A new app showed up on Setapp ([direct link](https://setapp.sjv.io/c/1198576/1011331/5114)) that has me pretty excited. Paletro adds a hotkey palette to any app for accessing all of the menu commands. It's superior to using Command-Shift-? (Help search) because it has full fuzzy matching and can access commands usually only exposed by holding down modifier keys.

AnyDrop for Mac

#.blogit #app #macos #productivity #utility | I like the idea of this: drag files to the menu bar and get a list of possible actions based on the type of file. But it doesn't appear to be user-extensible, so I'm personally happy sticking with Dropzone.

CheatSheet - Know your short cuts

#.blogit #app #macos #utility | I used to appreciate KeyCue when learning keyboard shortcuts for an app, but it hasn't worked for me for quite a while now. CheatSheet does the same thing flawlessly, and for free. Just hold the ⌘-Key down for a couple seconds to get a popup with a list of all active short cuts of the current application (including custom shortcuts assigned to Services and menu items).

CatchUp - Keep in Touch

#.blogit #app #ios | A free app with no ads, CatchUp simply reminds you to keep in touch with the people you want to. Add a contact, set an interval, and CatchUp reminds you to reach out. This is ideal for people like me who can go years without hearing from someone and still consider them great friends, but who learn in the harshest ways that not everyone else reacts the same way.
