This is such an easy app for using GIFs and emoji anywhere. I have it set to launch at start-up and it's hidden in my menubar unless I need to add a cool new GIF. Once I figured out the best process for saving GIFs locally to then enter them into the app, I was settled on using Rocket for my everyday GIF sharing and emoji entry tool. Pros: Easy to enter emoji and GIFs anywhere you can enter text without needing a separate "character viewer" or any pop-up. Cons: It took a few attempts to determine a smooth workflow for adding new GIFs and archiving them effectively

I've been using this for a few weeks and finally have discovered where it fits into my daily workflow. When I have an idea that I know I will want to reference at a later time I will jot it in one of my notes. Then as I need it later I cut it out of the note and I free up one of the five again for later. The best feature of these notes is that the menu item will stay active even when I click out of it so I can use it as a reference and continually add new thoughts to it. Great for notetaking while reading an article, or creating a temporary to-do list whilst going through email. It has more than a few uses and will stay in my menu bar for a while.

I've been using Instant Translate for many months now answering support requests that are in a foreign language. Now I'm enjoying the new Mate Translate just as much. It is quick and easy enough for me to live chat in a user's native language with little to no miscommunications. I copy the text, hit the shortcut, and the menu item grabs it from my clipboard and translates it automatically. I would love another shortcut to stick the translated text into my clipboard, but even without that, it is streamlining my workflow in these cases. Best new feature (though maybe it was there before in IT but I just recently noticed it?) is the Pin to keep the menu item open if I need to click back and forth between windows. Thanks for the great work Alex!
