I’ve been doing so much late-night computer work lately that I realized… I basically live inside a handful of Mac apps. So in this video I’m sharing my tried-and-true favorites—the ones I use every single day, not the quirky “look what I found” stuff. If you’re on macOS and you’re not using a couple of these, you’re genuinely missing out. We start with CleanShot X, which is hands-down the best screenshot app I’ve ever used—same shortcuts you already know, but it stacks your screenshots in a little clipboard and gives you way better markup, blur, and gorgeous backgrounds (I use this constantly for video assets). Then there’s Paste, which finally makes clipboard history on Mac feel… normal, plus the Paste Stack feature for copying multiple snippets in a row. I also show how I use the ChatGPT Mac app (Option + Space is so clutch) for everything from replacing Google searches to organizing health lab work into CSVs. And the “small but mighty” picks: a simple Color Picker that auto-copies hex codes, Screen Studio for slick screen recordings with automatic zooms, and Camo for turning my iPhone into a stable, wired webcam for Zooms/streams. Simple tools, huge quality-of-life upgrade—stay peachy.
