There are just too many free apps available for the Mac to include everything. Though this list is long, it is by no means complete. WeatherBug Lite is the perfect little at-a-glance weather app because it's always on. If you really want to get into the nitty-gritty, click on a stat to open WeatherBug on the web, where you can find out about windshield, sunrise, rainfall, and more. If you want more information, you can click on the Menu bar widget to get an hourly forecast and a current weather radar. It is a Menu bar app that always shows the current temperature and weather condition. If you just want a quick glance at the current temperature, WeatherBug Lite is just what you need. Since this is a list of apps, I'm not including services that only have websites without a dedicated app (there are two exceptions to this rule on the list, but they are totally worthy of rule-bending). You will see some apps that have premium content that can be unlocked with an in-app purchase, but I've included them on the list because I feel that the free content is noteworthy. If an app is on the Mac App Store, it is in one of the 21 categories that Apple has listed.īecause this is a 'free' app list, I tried to only include apps that are truly free or whose functionality is not diminished without an in-app purchase. This makes it easier to cover the wide variety of content available. In researching the best free apps for the Mac, I started by using Apple's category list.
