This isn’t true! In my more clear-headed testing, it is accessible. I tested Find Any File for accessibility in far too much of a hurry and my original assessment was that it is not accessible. I think this is worth a chat with the developer because the inaccessible fields are just like some of the accessible ones so I bet it wouldn’t be too much work. Parts of it are but it fails on some of the most fundamental items. Before I get started, I need to tell you that the app isn’t accessible. I downloaded Find Any File, and gave it a whirl and I found another really interesting use for it, so I’m going to go a bit deeper to explain the interface and what it can do. But you can donate more if you like.Īllison and Steve, thank you for all the work you are doing publishing our beloved podcasts over all those years! Merry Christmas to you and your family and to all Nosillacastaways! So, what does this app set you back if you decide to “buy” it? $6. Macworld back in 2011: the “biggest drawback (…) is (…) that it doesn’t search inside files”. It has been around quite some time – here is a review from Macworld that was published back in 2011. You can download and use it for free, but you are expected to pay the developer. It is shareware like in the good old times. (…) FAF lets you search precisely for many file properties such as name, extension, date range, size, kind etc. It can even search in other user’s folders if you use FAF’s unique root search mode. on network (NAS) and other external volumes, hidden ones inside bundles and packages, and those in folders that are usually excluded from Spotlight search, such as the System and Library folders. Yes, I still do miss Tim Verpoorten.įAF can find files that Spotlight doesn’t, e.g. It truly does one thing and it does it well. It is a shareware app by Thomas Tempelmann. This is when I stumbled upon Find Any File or abbreviated FAF. Spotlight did not find anything related to the app or its developer. It may be a quirk of mine, but I cannot stand having stuff left on my Mac that I want to get rid off, but just cannot. The app still was listed under “Allow in the Background” and at other places. Although I have Hazel’s App Sweep activated, I ended up with some app crud left on my Mac. Yesterday I had to delete an app because it did not work any longer for me. Christian’s review is short and to the point and Find Any File sounds like a lovely app. I find it sounds odd to hear someone else’s words coming from me, but I’m going to make an exception here. Have a very merry Christmas and thank you for everything!Ĭhristian sent along his review, and I love that he pre-empted my request to have him record the review himself. It is absolutely fine with me if you do not have any use for this review. It occurred to me that it might be an idea to send a little review as I could not find one on ~~ (and no, I really do not feel comfortable recording the review). Today I stumbled upon a little app that is called Find Any File. This week I got an email with a review from Christian:
