The important thing to note is that taking photos allows you to import images to your Mac, and not vice versa. If you want to import photos to your iPhone / iPad, you have to use iTunes or any similar alternatives.

5. Grapher


Grapher is one of the most underrated on Mac utilities. Grapher lets you enter an equation and plots the drawing appropriate explanations for it. It can draw complex 2D and 3D graphs. To open it, type in "Grapher" in the search light.


It also has a lot of 2D and 3D charts, for example to get you started. On the front customization, you can change the graph style, arrow style and colors. Grapher is a power-packed tool can be really helpful to all amateur mathematician colleague there!

6. On-screen Keyboard


Most Mac users do not know that they have a Mac comes with a keyboard on the screen, although I would not blame them because it is tucked away in the settings. To enable the keyboard that appears on the screen, go to "System Preferences" > "Keyboard" and check the box where you say, "Show keyboard symbols and graphical viewer in the menu bar."


An icon similar to as shown below should be added to your menu bar. Click on "Show Keyboard Viewer" here.


A virtual on-screen should pop-out now. It can be resized to fit on any screen and it always stays on top, so you can type within any application window.


This can come really handy when any of your hardware keyboard buttons don’t work anymore or you are just wary of hardware keyloggers stealing your sensitive data.

7. Automator


Automator is a powerful tool that is included with the Mac, which allows you to automate everyday tasks on your Mac, such as renaming multiple files or convert one video format to another. Type in "automatic" in the search light and then press Enter. In the first round, and we will provide you with the option to choose the type of document.


There are "working" document that allows you to build custom work (instructions) that can be executed from the automatic. The document "application" allows you to build the same work, but can be run from anywhere outside the automatic.

You can select the files / folders you wish to receive as input and then trigger certain actions on them, such as - Batch rename them. "Library" provides access to dozens of procedures to be run option.


You can also click on the "Record" button on the top right-hand side to record a series of mouse/key-presses, so that you can "Run" it later for repetitive tasks.


Of course, these are just the tip of the iceberg. Automation is a vast and powerful application. You may want to search the Internet for workflow automation or just poke around the application to make some really fantastic workflow.
