HoudahSpot is an versatile desktop search application. It builds upon Spotlight, which comes preinstalled with macOS. It makes Spotlight both more powerful and easier to use.

HoudahSpot provides a clear and structured interface that focuses on file search.

It gets you to your files as quickly as possible.* Find files by name, text, content kind, author, pixel count, etc.* Combine criteria to narrow down search results

* Specify which folders to search and which ones to exclude

* Add any of the hundreds of columns available

* Apply filters to reduce search results to only the relevant items

  • Preview files and text matches

* Open files and, where the application supports it, continue searching for text matches by pressing command-G (Find Next)

HoudahSpot is indispensable to unearth hard-to-find files. It also works great as a replacement to the default Spotlight interface.

If you've ever had a hard time finding a file before, this is what you've been looking for.
