#2My top 3 lesser known mac apps:
Itsycal - a mini calendar app that will show upcoming events
Finicky - control which URL schemas open in which browser. Development stuff in chrome, everything else in Safari
Rectangle - Window management shortcuts

#3I blogged about using a private Android device for work [1]
The apps:
NetGuard: firewall that controls app network access
Shelter: separate private from work apps
Gboard: swiping keyboard
Shortcut creator: quick desktop shortcuts to things like SIM management and network mode selector
wifi manager: useful when roaming between multiple co-located WIFIs
widgets: I use widgets a lot (outlook mail, outlook calendar)

#5Not an app per se, but rather a platform
I use TranscribeMe (https://transcribeme.app) to transcribe my college classes, the transcriber is excellent and doesn't have any mistakes

Interesting. FYI, Wechat has inbuilt feature that transcribes voice messages but only in Chinese. I was expecting it to come to Whatsapp, but seems they are slow on this. Thanks for this suggestion.

Just downloaded Itsycal. Thanks for this gem.
We need finicky automation in mobile OS. it is brilliant to automate which URL to open which app/browser. Thanks for this suggestion.
I use magnet instead of rectangle. you might give it a try
