## Seven apps for Mac and iPhone
Rahul Chowdhury, who finds and builds apps for his Hulry newsletter, recommends seven iOS and macOS apps including one he made himself for weekly planning.
## Dia: a clean browser with optional AI
Chowdhury switched to Dia after his previous browser Brave started glitching and lagging. Dia is a well-made everyday browser with optional AI features.
## Dia's AI and smart features
You can get a morning briefing from connected apps or ask questions about the page you are reading. Dia automatically groups tabs opened from the current page with Command-click and names the group.
## Dia pricing and availability
Dia is available on macOS for free, with an optional ten dollar per month plan. It is clean, looks great, and is regularly updated with useful features.
## Dia's evolution since 2025
When Chowdhury first tried Dia in twenty twenty-five, he was not a fan because it was AI-first. It has since become a well-made everyday browser with optional AI features.
## CleanShot: screenshots and recordings
Chowdhury has used CleanShot as his screenshot tool for more than seven years. He uses it for blog posts, tutorials, and capturing payment confirmations in case of later disputes.
## CleanShot's smooth zoom feature
CleanShot offers screenshots and recordings with smooth zooms. This feature makes it useful for creating visual content and documentation.
## Privacy-focused writing assistant
The article mentions a privacy-focused writing assistant among the seven recommended apps, though specific details about this tool are not provided in the available text.
