Ammonite 1.23.1 for Mac
Mac UtilitiesAmmonite 1.23.1 for Mac is a tag visualiser and search utility from Soma-Zone, the German developer also known for BackupLoupe. macOS tags are useful only if you can find things with them again, and Ammonite turns all the tags on your system into a cloud where the most-used tags appear biggest and are clickable.
Clicking a tag instantly narrows the results to matching documents, and you can combine several tags, exclude others, or filter by date. Ammonite reads tags from Finder files and also works directly with DEVONthink databases and Obsidian vaults. It is shareware: you can download and try it from the maker, then buy a licence if it earns a place in your workflow.
Key Features
- Tag cloud view for Finder, DEVONthink and Obsidian, sized by tag usage
- Left-click to include a tag, right-click to exclude it, with instant results
- Tag hierarchies using names like Publisher>Manning, nested without limits
- Search by creation or modification date and date range
- Quick Look previews, document details, and support for OpenMeta and native macOS tags
How to Download
- Download from the official site
- Use the Download link on the Soma-Zone page to get the trial, or the Buy link for a licence.
- Install Ammonite, let it index your tags, and click through the cloud to find your documents.
Does Ammonite replace DEVONthink?
No. It is a companion tool. It searches and visualises tags inside DEVONthink databases, Finder folders and Obsidian vaults, but your documents still live in those apps.
Is Ammonite free?
It is shareware rather than a free full version. The download lets you try it out first, and ongoing use requires buying a licence from Soma-Zone.
