Licensed - A Nice Single Purpose App for Keeping Track of Your Software
One of the reasons that I go to r/MacApps every single day
is the prospect of discovering news apps and developers. This week I
found out that an ancient app (well, 17 years), Licensed, has been updated
and is compatible with macOS 15. Licensed is a simple database to keep
track of your software purchases. It has fields for:
- Maker
- Product
- Version
- Owner
- Code
- Date
- Notes
The database is searchable. From the app's file menu, you can identify the data file for easy backups, and you can export your data as a CSV file so that you can be assured you aren't locked into any proprietary format.
Licensed is a free app from developer Amar Sagoo. You can download it on his website.
