Submission requirements

All apps are manually reviewed before being added to the directory. To qualify, your app must meet these requirements:

  • 1

    A functioning Mac app

    Your app must be available to use or download and work on macOS. Unreleased apps are not eligible.

  • 2

    Not an information product

    Ebooks, courses, newsletters, communities, and other products primarily offering information are not eligible.

  • 3

    Relevant to Mac users

    Your app must run on macOS or provide a meaningful Mac-specific utility. Websites without an actual Mac app are not eligible.

  • 4

    A legitimate app website

    Your website must clearly explain what the app does and provide a way to download, purchase, or access it.

Meeting these requirements does not guarantee acceptance. MacTools reviews every submission before publication.

Free submissions are reviewed before publication. Listings must remain relevant to Mac users and follow our submission guidelines.
