Apps a person checked come first, newest check first. Never ordered by payment.
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.

Mac screen recorder that turns a raw recording into a finished product demo
Feito por ScreenToast. Built in SwiftSiteOn XScreenToast turns a raw recording into a finished product demo: automatic zooms, a smoothed cursor, captions and a spoken voiceover. The detail that stands out is that it hides secrets automatically, by its maker's description. That matters if your demo shows a dashboard with real data or a key on screen.
Editing is free. Pro is a subscription from $4.92 a month, which suits people who record demos every week more than people who need one video. It is built in Swift and needs macOS 14 or later.
