Any Batfy app for android?

In every video I ask myself how is it possible to edit so well videos.

Awesome! Your videos about Mac apps are literally the best available, keep going)

[@macvince]

Thank you so much for the high praise! I‘ll try, but I‘m slowly running out of apps 🥲

[@Ukr_sunflower]

You could try out MultiTouch/Better Touch Tool/Swish for mouse/keyboard/trackpad gestures and windows snapping customization

[@MarioCRO]

IINA has been my go to video app since I got it on my Macbook Air M1 for the first time. VLC is also great, but HDR and related features are way more easy to control on IINA.

[@macvince]

Interesting! Very much agree, it‘s a great app (and very nicely designed)

[@igordantax]

Great video, Vince! You have an awesome production going on here! Everything is so well edited and put together! Your content is so unique!

[@macvince]

Thanks a ton for the kind words! Very motivational! :)

[@thehman2007]

Vince, you are incredible. Your recommendations are so useful. I’ve downloaded almost all of your recommendations and have found them extremely useful. Not only that, I’ve shown my coworkers your Finder tips, and your other productivity tips and now we are all more productive.

Thank you very much! Hope you'll enjoy the apps!

[@lorenzobenvenuto5146]

Hi Vince, sorry to bother you, how did you set up recent files in the Folder Hub app? It doesn't let me select smart folders...Thanks

[@macvince]

Fantastic, that‘s great to hear - happy to help :)

[@lucaphilfranze6922]

Unglaublich starke Videos. Nicht nur das Editing, sondern auch die Tipps. Meine Arbeit auf dem M3 Max hat sich dadurch so unglaublich potenziert. Ein paar Ideen, falls du keine Apps mehr findest, um neue Videos zu machen: 10 best Mac Terminal Commands (um Dateien zu kopieren finde ich Auto shutdown zum Beispiel extrem gut), How to clean up your Mac Drive, weitere Videos zu Handoff, MacOs Entwickler Preview mit ChatGPT Integration, how to use your IPad as 2nd Mac Screen (Handoff oder Duet), best Mac Accessoires (peripherals etc), best Mac Monitor, etc. Etc.

[@macvince]

Wow, danke dir bro! Echt gute Videoideen, werde auf jeden Fall ein paar davon umsetzen. Ein Video mit iPad UND Mac ist geplant, da erläutere ich dann auch das mit dem 2nd screen. :)

[@theparents23]

Amazing Video. All applications are really useful 🤩

[@macvince]

Will do!

[@robinrauber2264]

Great Video. There is also another great App for the Mac notch called notch nook. In addition to folder hub it acts like the Dynamic Island like on iPhone. So it expands when music plays, you can add widgets or use it as a Universal Clipboard just by dragging files on to the notch.

[@abhinandhsudharsan]

Love your videos. Can you tell me a solution for flickering touchbar in MacBook pro?

[@macvince]

Thank you! Sadly, that's only something the Apple Support can get into, because that might be a hardware issue... Sorry!

[@KhaledMoAdel]

man, i freakin love your videos, holy smokes, honestly, i did NOT think you will show me 5 apps I didn't know (the are you sure bit was me, that edit bit was spot on) :D but you were right! keep up the great work, much love and much success

[@macvince]

Hey man, thank you so much! Always appreciate your kind words about my videos - exceptionally glad you discovered five new apps!!! Here's a short explanation of the API key thing: An API key is like a password that lets the app connect to OpenAI's services. By adding your own OpenAI API key to the Voices app, you are allowing the app to use your access to OpenAI's services. This means the app can send your text to OpenAI, which then processes it and sends back the voice-over. OpenAI charges for the usage of its services. When the Voices app uses OpenAI to create voice-overs, it consumes some of OpenAI's resources (like computational power). OpenAI charges you based on how much you use these resources. Each time you want to connect a service like the Voices app to OpenAI, you need to create a new key (so basically password). You can do this by logging in to your OpenAI account (not the ChatGPT website, but same login). There, you also have to add a payment method. This one is separate from your ChatGPT subscription, this won't give you free API keys. But, as said in the video, it's insanely cheap, you'll need to create voice-overs of a lot of text to even reach a dollar. I know, it's a bit complicated, but if you google how to create API keys, you'll find good resources. Hope this helps - and thanks again for watching!

[@KhaledMoAdel]

@@macvince you are a legend for taking the time to explain all this, never lose this quality when you go hella big, and you will man :) much love

I got one a few months ago best decision. I think im getting more addicted using a mac than actually the task or video playing on my mac hahaha

[@sheshasain018]

I got M1 Air, 2 months back and the battery capacity has already dropped to 96% even with utmost care. As a first time Mac user, this definitely is worrying me.

[@oh-noe]

​@@sheshasain018 I got M2 air about a year ago and mine is at 95% 117 cycles. Just keep watching it and if it doesn't continue going down at a rapid pace then it's probably ok.

[@Mr.C0ffee]

Great video! Why would u run on battery whilst charging be helpful? 6:35
