SpotLook GUI for Mac Spotlight
SpotLook is a graphical user interface (GUI) designed for Mac's Spotlight tool. This free application enhances the search experience by presenting results as tracks categorized by file type. Users can organize and group tracks, customize searches by date, scope, UTI, or name, and open results in Finder or Quick Look. The tool offers advanced search features such as searching through time using date boxes or a slider bar, providing detailed information on Spotlight searches.
SpotLook's multiple search options and organizational features make it a valuable tool for managing and exploring Spotlight search results. However, some users may find it slightly complex to navigate initially, lacking clear explanations on track browsing. With patience and familiarity, SpotLook can significantly enhance the usability of Apple's search function.
