Why Is Twitter Discontinuing App For Mac

Posted By admin On 15.02.20

Looking to make the most of the robust? We’ve got you covered.

There are literally hundreds of thousands of great software programs compatible with MacOS in the App Store — not to mention the thousands more that are scattered across the web. Because of this, we’ve compiled some of the best Mac apps available.

Since there are so many apps, we pared our list down to only include programs that are most likely to be useful to the average Mac user, whether you’re looking to quickly access an abundance of RSS feeds or automatically upload your photos to the proverbial cloud. Interface Alfred 3 Think of Alfred as Spotlight with a dash of Siri. It’s an application launcher, but it can do a lot more than just that. With Alfred, you can quickly perform calculations, execute web searches, and quickly find word definitions, among many other functions.

It fills the gap between Siri and your Spotlight search, by allowing you to automate tasks and perform advanced functions that, frankly, Siri should be able to handle without voice input. Download now: Bartender 3 ($15) Bartender 3 is an app made for when you’re utilizing too many apps. It’s a subtle tool that’s specifically designed with organization in mind, and as such, it lets you better systematize various aspects of your interface. With Bartender 3, you choose which apps appear in the menu bar and rearrange their position to your liking. You can also search for specific items, or move them into the optional Bartender Bar if you’re in dire need of additional space.

The latest version added support for MacOS, an interface that leverages the new operating system, and the ability to navigate via your keyboard. You can choose a 4-week free trial before purchasing if you want. Purchase now: Amphetamine Always a favorite, Amphetamine keeps your computer from going into sleep mode, starting the screensaver, or performing the auto-dim function. It’s ideal for watching streams, videos, or any other activity in which you don’t touch the keyboard or mouse for an extended period of time. Download now from: Dropzone 3 ($10) Once installed, Dropzone 3 feels like an integral part of MacOS.

Why

The bare-bones application functions as a shortcut tool, meaning you can use it to quickly copy and move files, launch applications, and share content through popular services such as Facebook and Flickr. You can also upload files via FTP and Amazon S3, or shorten URLs using the newly-added Goo.gl shortener.

It’s all housed within a tiny icon that sits in the menu bar. Purchase now from: Google Chrome Safari will never boast the kind of intuitive integration afforded by Google’s proprietary browser. Chrome is for desktop platforms, one that also features the ability to automatically sync all your information — bookmarks, open tabs, recent searches, etc. — across multiple computers and mobile devices. That, combined with its robust customization and instant search capabilities, make it worthwhile.

Download now from: Magnet ($1) It’s not always easy to view multiple windows side by side, at least, not without Magnet. The app is made for the multitasker inside all of us, and thus presents a quick way to arrange your desktop. With Magnet, you can drag and snap windows to the edges and corners of your screen, which will then lock into place. It’s a terrific tool, complete with predefined keyboard shortcuts, if you want to copy content from one app to another.

Purchase now from: Unclutter ($10) Unclutter is a basic piece of software that suits its name. The app is accessible with a quick swipe from the top of your screen, and, better yet, functions as a convenient place for storing quick notes, recent files, and clipboard information. Recent updates also allow for a light or dark theme (although MacOS Mojave now has a native dark mode), and include an option for dragging cards on top of other desktop windows.

Files and notes even automatically sync across your devices via Dropbox, a suitable addition that adds to the app’s lasting appeal. Purchase now from.

SEE: In a post, program manager Sabrina Mohamed said that the iOS app will no longer be available to download from the Apple App Store as of October 19, and the app will stop working altogether as of December 17. Customers will get notifications within the app to remind them of the changes and to try out.

Since Sway presentations have always been stored on Microsoft servers, the removal of the app won't have any effect on the presentations that you've made so far - it'll just affect how you access them. Granted, a dedicated mobile app tends to be preferable for services like this, because of the tighter integration of tools, menus, and other components. But if Microsoft detects a lack of interest in a particular version of Sway, they have to weigh that against the cost of continued development. FOLLOW to keep up with the latest app news. Of course, Microsoft does not acknowledge defeat. Mohamed says in the forum post, 'With this change, we're consolidating our Sway experience.'

But given how every other major component of Microsoft Office has spread to and apparently flourished on iOS and Android as a standalone app, cutting Sway out of that picture looks like a retreat, rather than a desire to streamline. Given that Sway's lack of a price tag creates a low barrier to entry, its apparent lack of engagement on iOS may spell trouble for the app on other platforms. Either way, Sway apps soldier on in Android, MacOS, and Windows for now, and all of your Sway presentations will remain available at, no matter what operating system you're using at the moment.

The takeaways. Microsoft has announced on its product forums that the iOS version of its Sway interactive presentation app will leave the App Store in October and be shut down in December. iOS users who want to maintain access to their Sway presentations can access them in a mobile browser at.
