What to look for

Native here means the maker says it runs on Apple silicon without Rosetta, or our check found that. It says nothing about speed on your Mac, so try it.

Vragen

MacPip lists 76: Droppy, Seedlore, ByeCtrlClick, Cuewake, Slap Alert, Linger, LaunchHome, Attic, Espresso, Tidymint, uRSS 2.0, CatPod |⁠ Pixel Cat Companion and 64 more. If you want it free, look at Seedlore. If you would rather pay once than subscribe, look at Droppy. If you want it to run natively on Apple silicon, look at Cuewake.
