If you are one of those who use many applications, for pleasure or for work, application macupdater it will keep you up to date with the latest versions of the applications installed on your Mac. This application is not related to any application download platform, and therefore, it should not obtain more information from your Mac than the one related to the version of your apps, to check if you have the latest version.
MacUpdater has more than 3.000 references available for consultation, and can reach up to 4.500 if you help him locate applications that he will then add to his list of apps to review. 
The operation is quite simple. MacUpdater analyzes the applications folder of our Mac. Then verifies in its database the version of our equipment, with the version provided by the developer. If there is a difference, you will inform us about it and enable us a button to make the change in a single click.
The downside to this app is that, for the moment at least, you do not have access to applications found only in the Mac Apple Store. As is well known, Apple restricts access for the sake of security, perhaps in some cases excessively. Another negative part is that the process does not do it with all the applications at the same time, which would save us time and we cannot update an application that is open.
The databases where you access are the following:
- Sparkle Framework: It is the most popular database. It has around 600 applications and is constantly updated.
- Homebrew Cask: here the figure rises to 2.500 applications. But this database is not as accurate as the old one and is updated less frequently.
One of the actions that I value the most from this type of application is the implementation of databases by users. Therefore, each time we will obtain better results with macupdater. For the rest, add that the updates are carried out correctly and easily and quickly.
