Notable apps and app updates for April 7, 2017

On a regular basis, Apple World Today posts a list of notable new apps or app updates that have been released. They may not necessarily be new, but they’re popular and deserve mention. Here are today’s picks.

macOS Apps/Updates

TunesKit Software has rolled out updates to three of its DRM removal products for the Mac, including DRM Media Converter ($44.95), DRM Audiobook Converter ($34.95) and Apple Music Converter ($34.95). All three solutions add support for iTunes 12.6. 

The apps allow Mac users to remove DRM from iTunes movies, TV shows, Apple Music and audiobooks. You can convert protected M4V files to unprotected videos, including MP4, MOV, M4V, AVI, MKV, FLV and more. Demos are available for all three TunesKit products.

B-Eng has updated their SSD Speeder app for the Mac. It allows anyone to create a RAM disk to speed up Safari and provide a longer life time for solid state drives.

A RAM disk can be used to store data that needs to live only until you shut down your computer. The SSD Speeder update mainly addresses mainly visual aspects of the app, as well as stability improvements under specific circumstances.

SSD Speeder costs $19.99 for new users. The update is free for existing users.

SecuritySpy 4.1.3 has been released with new features and bug fixes. The app allows you to easily monitor your SecuritySpy CCTV system from wherever you are. SecuritySpy 4.1.3 is a free update for registered users. For new users the cost is about $30.
