A new MacBook Air or MacBook Pro is fast out of the box. The first week is when you notice the small things: the notch eats your menu bar icons, windows pile up on a 13 inch screen, the SSD fills up faster than you expected.
This page picks apps for those first-week jobs, up to two per job, from what MacPip lists. Every pick runs natively on Apple silicon or is built with Apple's own tools, by its maker's word, and apps a person checked come first. 12 apps made it.
