   Simple UI, and does what is says very well!

   👍 Pros:    Works perfectly|Supports mac shortcuts

• Little macOS Apps That Make a Big Difference in 2024

  Adding my must haves: - DisplayBuddy: a more modern alternative to BetterDisplay to control monitors (https://displaybuddy.app) - Magnet: the simplest and best window manager (https://magnet.crowdcafe.com) - DaisyDisk: fantastic way to visualise your disk usage and free up space (https://daisydiskapp.com). - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

  Possibly battery (use Coconut Battery to check battery capacity). Source: over 1 year ago
