Reviews of Apps I Have Personally Tested
- TextSniper - Better Than Native OCR | AppAddict ($7.99- On Sale For $1.99 -%75) Hit a hotkey, drag a box over anything on screen (a locked PDF, a video frame, a screenshot someone sent you), and the text lands on your clipboard; it also reads QR codes and barcodes and can speak the captured text aloud. OCR runs entirely on your Mac. textsniper.app, App Store

MacPilot Tweaks Some Hard to Get To Settings in macOS ($29.95 -On Sale For $3.50 -88%) - A GUI over roughly 1,200 hidden macOS settings and
defaults writetweaks: show hidden Finder files, kill the startup chime, add Dock spacers, change the screenshot format, run maintenance scripts, all without opening Terminal. koingosw.com - Unite 5 - Site Specific Browser ($39.99 - On Sale For $5.00 -%87 off) Turns any website into an isolated, native Mac app that runs as a normal window, a menu bar dropdown, or a sidebar; you get per-app cookies, custom icons, ad blocking, userscripts and CSS, keyboard shortcut remapping, and link routing between apps. Extras like Dock badges, Google/Outlook meeting alerts, and a floating AI companion overlay are the part Safari's "Add to Dock" can't touch. bzgapps.com/unite
The two I haven't tried (yet) are:
VideoPaw ($69.99 - On Sale For $6.50 -%91) - Cisdem's all-in-one media utility: batch convert video and audio across 600+ formats, download clips from supported sites, rip DVD and Blu-ray, compress files, and record screen/webcam with live annotation. Basic editing (trim, crop, merge, watermark, subtitles) is included, so it replaces three or four single-purpose downloads.
PDF Squeezer ($19.99 - On Sale For $3.98 -%80)-- Drag in a bloated PDF and it shrinks by recompressing images and stripping unused fonts and resources, with a side-by-side preview so you can see what quality you're giving up. Batch processing, saved presets, and hooks into Finder, Automator, Shortcuts, and the command line make it a good buy IMHO.
