Is there an image viewer that can browse images in a folder using the sort order of Icon view of Finder automatically?

Basically something like the Windows Photo Viewer in Windows 7. User opens an image, all the images in the folder are added to the list and sorted by the order in Icon view in Finder automatically.

I am aware that Pixea has a similar function but that app can only sort in the order of List view automatically. Kind of awkward viewing images.......

AI photo editor for photographers?

Is there any ai, offline photo editors for photographers? Which does automatic logarithmic selection of facial features such as eyes, eyebrows, pupils, lips for adding makeups, and beautification..

Be careful with a recent increase in fake apps with malware

Recently there’s been a big surge in fake apps spreading malware.
I even saw a fake version of AirPosture that looks identical but installs malware.
Yesterday I noticed there’s also a fake “DynamicLake” app doing the same thing

I strongly recommend:
If you’re not 100% sure an app is legit, always contact the real developers to confirm.

Black Friday Sale: CopyMagic, the smartest clipboard manager.

I'm the developer of CopyMagic, a clipboard manager I built because I kept losing stuff I'd copied.

The key feature is semantic search – you can search naturally like "flight info" or "URL from Slack yesterday" and it understands what you mean, not just keywords.

Everything is local-first (no accounts, no servers, works offline), keyboard-centric (⇧⌘Space to summon), and has features like secret masking for passwords and organization by type/app/time.

For r/macapps, I'm offering lifetime access at 50% off.

Includes unlimited clipboard history, all future updates, and priority email support.

Happy to answer questions about how it works!

Keyboard Maestro 50% Off For the First Time. Here are Some Use Cases if You are interested.

The folks at Bundlehunt have managed to get the developer of Keyboard Maestro to offer the app at half price for seven days only.


Keyboard Maestro by Stairways Software is the preeminent automation application for macOS. It acts on nearly 30 triggers to perform almost any Mac function you can think of. It can launch tasks, control applications and manipulate text and images. It's easier to demonstrate its powers than to explain them, so I'll share my top 10 macros.

## 1. Add Today's Task

This is an example of a macro that runs an iOS shortcut, in this case one that adds my most important task of the day to my Obsidian daily note. I launch it with a keyboard shortcut.

## 2. Sync Obsidian Vault

This macro uses a time of day trigger to launch Sync Folders Pro every morning at 2am. That application then runs an automated sync of my Obsidian vault to my Google Drive folder where it gets uploaded automatically into the cloud. Keyboard Maestro shuts the program down five minutes later.

## 3. Create Daily Checklist in Drafts and Copy to Things 3

Every evening I trigger a macro from my menubar to use a template in Drafts to create my daily checklist in Things 3, complete with the due date, tags and areas. Mike Burke wrote a great piece on how to create the template for Things in Drafts.

## 4. Eject Backup

My daily driver at home is a M2 MacBook Air. Every night before I go to ned, I plug in a backup drive so that Time Machine can do its thing while I sleep. Every morning, 30 minutes before my alarm goes off, a time of day trigger causes a macro to execute that runs an AppleScript to eject the drive, so that when I start work in the morning, all I have to do is physically disconnect it.

## 5. Morning Apps

Every morning, right before I wake up, Keyboard Maestro launches my browser, Obsidian, Fantastical and the Photos app. That way I'm ready to start my daily note, keep up with my appointments and post a picture to Pixelfed, a daily habit.

## 6. Various App Launching Hotkeys

I use a hyperkey (CAPS LOCK) mapped as shift+control+option+command with Karabiner-Elements in combination with a hotkey to launch a variety of my most used apps, Edge, Drafts, Things, Bartender, Path Finder etc. All of that runs through small Keyboard Maestro macros.

## 7. Quit All Applications

At the end of a work session on my computer, I hit control+shift+Q and it quits all my open apps. That way everything can back up properly and I don't have to worry about open files.

## 8. Uninstall Apps

When I launch App Cleaner, it serves as a macro that arranges the windows on my computer automatically so that App cleaner takes up the right of the display and Path Finder, opened to the Applications folder, takes up the left half. Then it's just a matter of dragging over the app I want to remove.

## 9. Hide on Unlock

For privacy reasons, unlocking my computer triggers an Apple Script that hides all open applications. That way I don't have to remember what's on my screen nor do I have to worry about any prying eyes from nosy neighbors.

## 10. Window Management

I have mapped control-shift and the arrow keys to control window positions for top, bottom, left and right. I get more granular control using Raycast but for most cases Keyboard Maestro does just fine.

If you've ever considered getting this app, now is the time. Keyboard Maestro at Bundlehunt.

I have a collection of 800 macros

that I'm happy to share with anyone who PMS me.

How I use BetterTouchTool

[RCMD Configuration Example](https://preview.redd.it/1cf582rq8u1g1.png?width=2424&format=png&auto=webp&s=2111d1eab5e86f520215ff956159997deefc45ab)

[BetterTouchTool](https://folivora.ai/) (BTT) by u/fifafu is a complex yet versatile masterpiece of an app, eliminating the need for numerous single‑purpose utilities. It manages windows and pinning, customizes mouse and touch‑pad behavior, expands text, runs advanced macros and noscripts, creates custom context windows and menu bars, launches and switches applications, and much more.

I don’t claim to use even a fraction of its capabilities, but here are a few ideas from my own use for those who find it daunting. Also,>!**If you use BTT, please share your top use case(s) below!**!<

**Global, Browser or App Management:**

* TipTap Left (1 Finger Fix) = CTRL+Tab | Switch forward one tab
* TipTap Right (1 Finger Fix) = CTRL+Shift+Tab | Switch backward one tab
* TipTap Left (2 Fingers Fix) = CMD+W | Closes the active tab or window.
* TipTap Right (2 Fingers Fix) = CMD+Shift+T | UNDO Closes the active tab or window.

* FN+Q | Trigger Quit All with Alfred + Kill Wifi \[Useful for when you send an email, realize you forgot something, and hope it didn’t get out yet\] 

**Window Management:**

* 3 Finger Double-Tap = CMD+Tab | Switches to the most recent app.
* Caps Lock = Act as Hyperkey | I actually have this disabled and use Karabiner to set this instead, as it did not always work 100% of the time for me.
* HyperKey+Tab | Show Window Switcher for All Open Apps
* HyperKey+D | Hide All Windows
* HyperKey+O | Pin/Unpin Window Float on Top

* A+D+D+R+Space | Fills in my address in a single line.
* *I use* [Alfred](https://www.alfredapp.com/) *more for text expansion.*

**App Specific Examples:**

* F1 through F5 | Highlight selected text in DevonThink, or remove highlight macro.\*
* HyperKey+1–8 | Color text in UpNote
* F1 through F7 | Set text styles in Scrivener
* F12, F11 | 20–40 action macros to reformat DevonThink source links in Scrivener to a specific format that makes citation easier for me later.

\*Used in tandem with the free [CustomShortcuts](https://www.houdah.com/customShortcuts/) by Houdah Software

**Logitech G604:**

* I set my Logitech Mouse so that each button functions as CMD+F1 through F18, and then use BTT to remap them to whatever I want on a per-app basis. Actions vary between Browser, Finder, and Media tools.
