4,837 apps, checked live, and 97 more in the Tide.

3,316 of them come from Homebrew: each has a normal app bundle, an unambiguous cask match and a current download, verified against Homebrew's checksum or, where the vendor publishes none, against the developer signature already on the installed copy. That half was regenerated on 2026-10-18. The other 1,521 are covered only through Floodtide's own signed catalog, which is researched by hand and reads each developer's release source directly; each app's page says how its download is checked. That catalog holds 2,003 apps in all. Its other 482 are 89 apps already on this list under the same name and 393 it names as kept up to date by another app or no longer updated. Apps with their own Sparkle feed, GitHub releases, an Electron feed or a source you set yourself are detected on your Mac on top of this list, and an installed Homebrew gets a pane of its own for formulae and taps. The 97 in the Tide are the apps researched and added since it opened, for subscribers; see the Tide.
