Can't Work Without this App

Just a brilliant, useful app. I would struggle to work without it now, as I'm so used to hitting a shortcut, and finding files that I've just saved. HIGHLY recommended.

Just fantastic..

I rarely write reviews, but Trickster is a lifesaver. I'm not even using filters yet … but just seeing the last few items i've saved / edited / opened from anywhere is hugely helpful. I can even click/drag from trickster, over to drag and drop upload web form, which is even more fantastic. In the past 4 months, Trickster has definitely saved me a few hours of looking/searching in finder. Just a great little app!

Great productivity app

Very helpful on a daily bases. Does as it says, the only thing is sometimes it does not record all used applications, however it is not that significant comparing to the usability.

Developer Response ,

Hello,

Trickster should be much more stable with version 2.6 now.
