Many of the apps we cover deserve a place on every Mac. We’ll introduce you to some of our favorites, as well as apps that come highly recommended by people we trust. In this review, we’ll look at what it takes for an app to make you more productive. Some prefer easy-to-use tools that smooth your workflow, while others favor complex tools that take time to set up but save time in the long run. The apps that make me productive may frustrate you. The work you do varies from person to person, and so does the way you approach it. But it doesn’t have to be that way! The best path to productivity is to put together a suite of apps that meet your needs, work together, and fit you like a glove. Unfortunately, we don’t always get the most of them - they can be frustrating, distracting, and even create additional work. Computers are meant to make our work more productive, saving us time and effort.
