3 MacOs Apps I Can’t Live Without

3 min readMar 18, 2025

MacOS is a great operating system if you install these three apps, check them out

Some of you may be surprised but actually I own both a laptop with Windows and another one with MacOS. On both I have some apps I can’t live without, and today I wanted to share with you three apps that may not be so popular, but are really useful if you happen to own a MacBook.

1. Rectangle — Manage Windows Position Like A Pro

Rectangle is this small, cute app for MacOS that offers a way to manage windows like a pro. When I started to work with MacOS I was devastated how much time I’ve spent arranging windows, moving them, etc. It’s so annoying. Rectangle offers a way to snap window to left half of the screen, right side, and even to two-thirds. There are other options to customize snap areas and behaviour. It really makes my life easier, especially since I have three displays and have to arrange windows and just keep them in place. Without worrying all the time where’s what.
