How often do you perform routine processes when working with OS X? I think everyone can remember more than one little thing, for the sake of which you have to open one menu, then another. It seems that it does not take much time, and the actions are simple, but routine is routine. And sooner or later, even restarting the computer causes bewilderment: why press several items, if everything can be solved with one click? The Fast Toggles utility is designed to simplify such operations, which was recently updated to the second version and received not only a new design, but also expanded functionality.
The application is a set of shortcuts with which you can control various elements of the system: emptying the trash in one click, access to Bluetooth and Wi-Fi with one click of a button. And also more specific things: hiding all desktop icons, turning on and off the display of hidden files, rebooting the system and other things in just one click.
Conveniently, each of these shortcuts can be separately displayed on the Dock to have quick access to a particular action. In addition, you can put the entire folder there as a whole, but in this case, as you understand, you already have to make two clicks.
In the new version, the developers have expanded the number of shortcuts, now there are 24 of them. In my opinion, they cover most of the actions that users perform over and over again.
It is clear that you can do without Fast Toggles completely safely, performing operations as before, or by setting up actions in Automator. But not everyone will want to understand the latter, and not everyone will refuse the rather convenient opportunity of the former.
In honor of the release of the new version of the application, the developers have made an 80% discount and temporarily the application can be purchased for $ 3.99 instead of $ 19.99, which may well be a good help for those who still have doubts about their choice.
