Updatest

Utility that shows the latest app updates

Visit

Updatest scans the applications installed on a macOS system and aggregates the latest version information from a variety of sources, including Homebrew, the Mac App Store, Sparkle, Electron, and GitHub Releases. It presents this data in a visual interface that shows version numbers, bundle identifiers, file sizes, developer details, download URLs, and security attributes such as code‑signing and notarization. Users can also add manual sources or enable the optional Updatest Network to discover updates reported by other users.

The tool is aimed at macOS users who want a single place to monitor and update their software without manually checking each source. It simplifies the Homebrew workflow by exposing the “--adopt” feature in a GUI, allowing one‑click upgrades of casks and command‑line tools. The application runs on macOS 15.0 or later and is distributed via Homebrew as a cask.

Privacy is emphasized: no personal data is collected by default, and any shared information is anonymous and optional. The software is marked as stable and positioned as a utility for keeping Mac applications current.
