The free, open-source toolkit that replaces several paid Mac utilities.

If Vorssaint is useful to you, a quick ⭐ means a lot and helps others find the project. It is, and always will be, 100% free with no subscription; community support is what keeps it alive, so if you'd like to chip in you can buy me a coffee ☕.

One small menu bar app that does the jobs you'd otherwise buy a handful of separate utilities for: keep your Mac awake, see what's slowing it down, set the volume per app, switch windows, carry files between apps, remove leftovers and fix a few everyday annoyances.

Free. Open source. Local. No account, no subscription, no telemetry. Nothing leaves your Mac except an update check you can turn off. It's built with native macOS frameworks, so it stays small and quick.

Install with Homebrew:

brew install --cask vorssaint/tap/vorssaint

Already have Vorssaint installed? Adopt your copy into Homebrew with no reinstall: brew install --cask --adopt vorssaint/tap/vorssaint. You can also download the .dmg.

Features are configurable from Settings or directly from the panel.

CPU, GPU and battery temperatures, live CPU/GPU load, memory pressure, uptime, battery health and cycles, network speed and totals, power draw and history graphs. Pin CPU, GPU, RAM, Network, Power or Battery right in the menu bar.

Turn one app down without changing the rest of your Mac. The per-app mixer macOS never shipped, with a live dot on whatever is playing. (macOS 14.4 and later.)

Replace ⌘Tab with a grid of live window thumbnails, including multiple windows of the same app, and a quick flick that toggles straight back to the last one you used.

For a download, a build or a presentation: on a timer or until you stop it, even with the lid closed. Battery protection switches it off when the charge runs low.

A floating tray, summoned at the cursor, that holds files, images, text and links so you can drag them between apps, windows and Spaces. Drop several files at once to keep them as a batch, or add loose items into an existing stack.

Switch between the full list and a section-based panel with one click. Sections stay at the top, the panel grows only as much as the active section needs, and Cleaning Mode lives in its own Utilities section.

Cleaning Mode locks the keyboard for a quick wipe-down, then unlocks from the overlay, a repeated-key gesture, or automatically after a short timeout.

Invert the mouse wheel without touching the trackpad's natural scrolling.

Cut files and folders and paste them into another folder: the move Finder leaves out. Text fields keep their normal shortcuts.

When an app's last window closes, it quits and frees its memory, with a per-app exception list for the apps you'd rather keep running.

Drop an app onto Settings to find its caches, preferences, logs and other leftovers, review the list, and send it all to the Trash.

A beta Fan Control entry is available for testing. Manual controls stay disabled until Mac models are validated safely.

• Free and open source, under GPL-3.0-or-later. No paywalled tiers.
• Local by default. No account, no sign-in, no telemetry. The only network call checks GitHub for a new version, and you can turn it off.
• Native and light. Plain SwiftUI + AppKit, no external dependencies, a single small app instead of several.
• Optional by design. Features can be adjusted or disabled, ask for a permission only when they need one, and degrade gracefully without it.

brew install --cask vorssaint/tap/vorssaint

Already have Vorssaint installed and don't want to reinstall it? Adopt your existing copy into Homebrew instead:

brew install --cask --adopt vorssaint/tap/vorssaint

After that, updates arrive with brew upgrade --cask vorssaint.

Grab the latest DMG from Releases, open it and drag Vorssaint into Applications.

Vorssaint is signed with a Developer ID and notarized by Apple, so it opens normally with no security warning. The stable signing identity also keeps your granted permissions across updates.

Official Vorssaint builds are distributed only by the project maintainer. Unofficial forks must use a different name, icon, bundle identifier and signing identity. The GPL license covers the source code only and does not grant permission to use the Vorssaint name, logo, icon, bundle identity, trade dress or official branding. See TRADEMARKS.md.

git clone https://github.com/vorssaint/vorssaint-utils.git
cd vorssaint-utils
./build.sh            # compile, generate the icon, assemble the signed bundle
./build.sh --install  # same, then install into /Applications and launch

• macOS 14 (Sonoma) or newer
• Apple Silicon
• Xcode Command Line Tools (to build from source)

Everything is optional: features degrade gracefully and the onboarding walks you through each grant.

Cut & paste and the uninstaller also ask macOS for Automation consent the first time they talk to Finder. The shelf needs no permissions.

The first launch opens a short, guided onboarding (language, permissions and an opt-in page per feature). Revisit it anytime from Settings › About.

./Tools/uninstall.sh   # from a clone, or download it from the repo

It quits the app, unregisters the login item, resets its Accessibility and Screen Recording permissions, deletes the app, preferences and saved state, and removes the optional closed-lid sudoers rule, leaving nothing behind. Or drag the app to the Trash and run tccutil reset All com.vorssaint.utils to clear its permissions.

Strict separation: UI observes services. Every user-facing string lives in Core/Localization.swift, compiler-checked for every supported language.
