Project Summary


WidgetWorx Utilities is a collection of small, free, and (hopefully) useful tools that reside in your Mac’s menu bar. The current collection contains three (3) applications: Menu Snappr, a screen capture utility, Menu Spot, a Spotify player controller, and Menu Swauncher, a combination app switcher / launcher and tool to quickly terminate running applications.

Although the genesis for creating a collection of small utility programs stems from my admiration of sites like DonationCoder and the legendary Double-Click Software team, WidgetWorx Utilities was actually created to address my own needs and desire to learn how to hack together some simple apps. While far from commercial-quality, these programs probably offer about 70 to 80% of the functionality that equivalent tools do, which is good enough for me and hopefully, is good enough for you too.

NOTE: I have tested these programs on several of my machines running El Capitan, Sierra, and High Sierra and they all worked fine. Your mileage may vary, however, since I can't possibly test every system configuration.
