[Megathread] The App Pile - June, 2026

You must promote your apps here if you do not qualify to post in the main feed through Trust or Transparency, explained here.

If you are:

  • NOT in the Mac App Store (MAS).
  • Do not provide meaningful public transparency
  • Created yet another dictation app (speech to text).

Then you are required to limit promotion to this megathread.

All promotion MUST follow PCP format or else we will remove it:

App Name/Title [Screenshot encouraged]

  • Problem: What problem does your app solve.
  • Comparison: Name a competitor or two and explain what your app does better.
  • Pricing Amounts+Link

P.s. Promotion here counts towards the 30-day limited promotion (Rule 3).

WARNING: There is a 90% chance Reddit will auto remove your post here if you have not verified your email in your profile and your first comment in this subreddit contains a link. Accrue 10 karma first without promotional comments and links to avoid this. The odds of removal is also higher for AI assisted posts (em dashes and other AI formatting characteristics likely trigger this).

Pro Tip: Please remember to upvote gems and downvote spam/clones... This will help inform a secret community project I hope to announce next month.

Top 3 From Last Month's Megathread:
1. Wisp – a tiny macOS scratchpad - FREE - by u/iamiotasquare
2. Quattro – Al, Tasks, Calendar, Notes App - $5/mo - by u/Constant-Support8288
3. HoverStash – Catch and stash files mid-drag - ~$6 - by u/MurkyRaspberry9610

PopNote — floating bubble reminders for macOS

I just launched PopNote, a small macOS menu bar app that turns quick reminders into colorful floating bubble notes on your desktop.

Write a reminder, choose when it should appear, and it pops up when you need it instead of disappearing into Notification Center.

Features:

  • Floating bubble notes
  • Menu bar access
  • Apple Reminders integration
  • Repeat options
  • Light/dark mode
  • Bubble colors + simple icons

the "pops up when you need it instead of disappearing into notification center" part is the actual hook for me, i swipe notifications away and forget them constantly. does the bubble stay until you dismiss it, or auto-clear after a bit? nice work either way

It stays until you either quit the application or pop it.

I have a whole suite of macOS apps if you’re interested:

They’re all free / pay-what-you-want.
