Does it work with every app?

Current works with apps that sign their own updates with Sparkle, Electron apps, and apps that Homebrew tracks. Apps without a compatible update source show as own updater only and can still update themselves normally. App Store apps are updated through the App Store.

What if an update goes wrong?

If a new version fails Current's last verification check, the old version is automatically restored. Because every update is checked before installation, bad downloads never get installed in the first place.

Does it send my app list anywhere?

No. Your app list stays on your Mac. License activation only sends your purchase email and a random device identifier. The app collects no usage analytics.

Will it close my apps?

Only an app you are updating while it is open, and only the normal way so it can ask you to save your work. Current reopens it afterwards. Automatic installs skip apps that are open.

How do I get a refund?

Email hello@currentmac.com within 14 days of purchase and you will receive a full refund with no questions asked.

Current checks your Mac apps and command-line tools, verifies each update, and installs it in one click with developer, notarization and compatibility checks.

Overview

Screenshot of the Current homepage — What currentmac.com looks like

Current is a macOS app that centralizes updates for Mac applications and command-line tools including Homebrew and npm packages. It verifies each update against four safety checks before installation: confirming the developer signature matches, checking Apple notarization status, validating compatibility with your Mac and macOS version, and rolling back the old version if the final check fails. The app checks each app's own update source daily rather than relying on a stale database, so new versions appear the day they ship. Current handles Sparkle, Electron, App Store, and Homebrew updates in a single interface, with options for manual or automatic installs that skip open applications.
