Automation , Programs

Description

Hazel is a streamlined alternative to the Automator application that comes built into macOS. This hazel app is specifically designed for automating file-related actions based on user-defined conditions. When one or all of the specified conditions are met, the program automatically carries out the designated actions on your Mac.

For example, if you regularly hazel download clipart images for your design projects and audio files for editing video productions, this application can automatically move them out of the "Downloads" folder and sort them into dedicated themed folders such as "Cliparts" and "Sounds" without any manual effort.

The hazel mac program will also suggest removing files that you haven't accessed or used in a long time, create backup copies of important documents with a special tag added to the file name, and clean up your desktop at a scheduled time — and all of this represents only a small fraction of everything this powerful automation tool is capable of doing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Hazel free?
Please check the developer's website for current pricing information.
The program is damaged or the file isn't working? Are there other problems?
Please read the installation instructions on the Download page carefully before proceeding. Additional help can be found in our article: Errors when installing applications on a Mac.
How do I update the app? Will my activation be affected?
Official updates can break activation unless the installation guide states otherwise. Download the latest version and install it over the existing one — this typically preserves your settings and activation.
How do I get the file? The download link isn't working. What does a .torrent file mean?
For large files, using a dedicated download manager like FDM is strongly advised. Chrome or a download manager handles file hosts much better than Safari. If the file ends in .torrent, you will need a torrent client such as Transmission. Some hosting sites may be blocked in your region, so a VPN could be required.
A newer version is out. When will the site be updated?
The site administration does not create or patch software. Updates are submitted by independent contributors when ready. How soon a new build appears depends on when someone prepares and uploads it.
Can I request an application? Where do I submit requests?
Neither the administration nor the editors build or patch software themselves. You can support the project and submit app requests through donation comments.
How can I switch the interface language?
Go to System Settings → General → Language & Region → Applications → "+", pick the app, then choose your preferred language. For Adobe products, language is typically selected during installation. Most games have a language option inside their own settings menu.
What is the right way to remove an app?
Use a dedicated tool such as App Cleaner & Uninstaller for a thorough cleanup. For Adobe software, the Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool ensures a fully complete removal.
Looking for assistance?
Paid remote support is available on the site (through AnyDesk, Zoom, or Skype) to guide you through installing apps on Mac or PC.
