Productivity tips

Hold Ctrl while taking a Mac screenshot to copy it straight to the clipboard, then paste it wherever you need it.

Let Finder automatically show invoices, warranties, or travel documents without moving files: a Smart Folder is a saved search.

Paste as plain text (no fonts/links): press Shift+Option+Cmd+V in most Mac apps.

Select a file in Finder, hit Space – instant preview for images, PDFs, videos, code. No app launch needed.

Clean up your Mac menu bar by hiding rarely used icons and keeping only the status indicators you truly need every day.

Make your bookmarks bar useful again: keep only daily tools visible and move old reading links into folders or notes.

If you copy three things in a row on your Mac, the first one is usually gone. Raycast's Clipboard History lets you bring back older snippets, links, and copied text in seconds.

Safari profiles let you split bookmarks, cookies, tab groups, and favorites without installing a second browser. Less clutter, fewer mix-ups.

Switch between apps faster with simple keyboard shortcuts.
