Hello PH neighborhood! 👋
PlugTalk was once born from an actual annoyance: my cat assists in keeping pulling USB cables out, and I by no means spotted till issues stopped operating.
What it’s:
A small menu bar app that performs a customized sound each and every time one thing is plugged or unplugged by way of USB or Thunderbolt. 18 sound packs (unfashionable arcade, fashionable UI clicks, bizarre lovely noises) plus your individual MP3s. Additionally doubles as a are living USB diagnostic: velocity and gear badges according to machine, 8-segment garage utilization bars, per-device mute/rename, hub-aware grouping.
Tech:
Local Swift, Apple Silicon most effective (macOS 14+). IOKit event-driven, so idle CPU is 0%. Sparkle handles auto-updates with EdDSA signatures. License lives in Keychain. No day-to-day phone-home, no telemetry.
Pricing:
$6.99 one-time, 3 Macs according to license, lifetime updates. Unfastened 7-day trial first, no card. 7-day refund window after.
Glad to respond to anything else concerning the tech stack, the pricing choice, or take function requests.
If PlugTalk made you smile, an upvote or a remark would imply so much lately 🙏
