Supercharge your Mac file searches with HoudahSpot 4, only $19 for a family license

For those of us who have worked on the Mac for decades, we know that one of the more frustrating aspects can be finding files. Sure, Spotlight is supposed to do that for you, but it often returns either empty or incorrect search results. The best tool for the job of finding files on your Mac is HoudahSpot 4, now available in the Apple World Today Deals Shop for $19. 

That $19 buys you a family license for HoudahSpot 4 that covers all Macs in a household. With HoudahSpot 4, you’ll:

  • Find files by name, text, content kind, file extension, author, recipient, pixel count, & more
  • Combine hundreds of criteria to zero in on files & customize columns in the search results list
  • Preview files & text matches before opening them
  • Set up templates for recurring searches
  • Search several locations at once & specify which subfolders to include & which to exclude
  • Create snippets to hold sets of criteria you use frequently

HoudahSpot is a perennial favorite of the Mac cognescenti; make sure you get it while it’s available for 56% off.
