Show HN: I create an app to tweak various secret settings on Mac
Hi everyone let me tell you a story: Back 2 years ago I made Almighty https://www.producthunt.com/posts/almighty as a way to tweak some secrets settings like Showing Finder file extension or simply clear system clipboard quickly. Although the app had poor icon and no landing page, many have found it useful. Since then I've been working on an improvements for it, and when SwiftUI came out I decided to rewrite it from scratch to better leverage SwiftUI
The result is Almighty 2 https://onmyway133.com/almighty/ with a nicer looking, both in main window and the menu bar. There are many tweaks categorized by apps. You can also organize into workflows to run all tweaks. There's also possible to set up a keyboard shortcut for each tweak. And voice command is in the work
The plan is to provide more tweaks, like hiding status menu items, detect camera usage, obscure keyboard, ...
The app is free to download and use, hope you find it useful. And suggestions for more tweaks are welcome
- skoskie 5y agoI don’t think showing file extensions is a secret setting. But I’ll definitely check out the app.
- Th3dud3 5y agoTook me a while to figure it out but CMD+Shift+. is what you’re looking for if you want to quickly toggle hidden files.
- Th3dud3 5y agoOh oops were talking extensions, not hidden files. My bad.
- onmyway133 5y agoVery cool, but what with the app you can assign your own keyboard shortcut
- onmyway133 5y agoThanks for checking, those are just examples. The idea of this app is to provide more tweaks with workflow and keyboard shortcuts and voice commands
- tobylane 5y agoCan you build it for Catalina?
