Reviewers consistently describe Tower as an unusually polished, easy-to-use Git GUI that many rely on daily for years. They praise its clear visual history for complex branching, fast native feel, strong keyboard shortcuts, and especially the “undo anything” Cmd+Z feature. Several say it gives them the overview they miss in the terminal while still fitting CLI-style workflows. Founders of
Schedulist and
LocaleData echo that view. The only notable criticism is licensing: one reviewer liked the app but passed because it lacks a perpetual license.
