5 Free macOS Utilities to Make Your Work Easier and Save Time

1. Session Pal

You have to keep many tabs open while you work and change them frequently throughout the day depending on your tasks. The Session Pal application will help you not to litter your bookmarks and not waste time sorting and searching for the pages you need at the moment.

It allows you to save the sites currently open in Safari in one click by clicking on Save Session and quickly restore them at any time. Saved sessions are displayed in the extension menu listing the number of tabs and page names. They can also be shared by mail.

Sessions are automatically added with the save time as a name, which is easy to change for convenience. Settings allow you to export saved collections so that you can return them or transfer them to another computer if necessary. There is a useful feature to automatically save inactive tabs in the last 24 hours.

If you often don't close any programs you don't need at the moment because you have to waste time loading them later, then you'll like Later.

With this utility, you can clear your workspace by closing running applications with one touch and restore them at any time. This will be useful, for example, before a call, a break, or to save battery power.

In the menu, you can customize the behavior of Later. Specify whether to quit apps completely or just minimize windows (Quit apps instead of hiding), whether already running programs will be closed before resuming the session (Close all apps when restoring). In addition, the automatic recovery function is available after a specified time (from 15 minutes to 5 hours).

5. spaced

In macOS, unfortunately, there is no function for organizing icons in the menu bar and sometimes it can be difficult to find the right one. Especially for owners of large laptops and external displays, where there is enough space for a couple dozen icons.

With the Spaced utility, it becomes possible to clean up the mess by organizing icons into groups using various separator characters. You can add several of these and move them around by moving the cursor while holding down the Cmd key.

Both spaces and signs are available to choose from hyphens, dots and straight lines. If desired, in the settings, you can reduce the transparency of the separators so that they are not so conspicuous.
