It doesn’t work on the desktop which makes it pretty useless for my work flow. Synched folders (icloud) also look like a no go.Looked in their documentation and I’m just seeing a bunch of references to older menus that were in previous versions of macos. Looks like it might not be developed any more? Either that or they’ve never updated their documentation to reflect the changes.

Like the title says, this doesn’t work on Sequoia and tryin to reach support isn’t gonna happen. They clearly don’t care. At least it was cheap enough to ay I didn’t lose out to much money for this piece of garbage.

The app no longer functions on MacOS 15.1 dev beta 3. When Right Click in Finder > New File > Text File/Rich Text Document/Word File etc., it results in the error code “Unable to create file! [¶] No suitable file template found.” And you can only “OK” it. ***UPDATE*** I managed to debug the issue, and found that the fact that MacOS allows for the different character set allowed in directory/folder names including, MacOS allowing the use of “?” (and likely “!” would cause the same issue) trips up New File Menu (and likely New File Menu Lite as well). Once I removed the “?” from a directory, I was able to create any new files, of any new format in any of the subdirectories/subfolders of the folder/directory that previously had a “?” in it. Once I reentered the question mark in the folder/directory name, it resulted in the same error; however, anywhere else where no directory path included a question mark (‘?’), using the right click > new file function worked. It is clear, that a Windows approach here caused the issue. I will revise this review upon any patch issued to this—unfortunately, this in the interim, needs me to rename folders, and be cognizant to use the Mac as if it was a PC. I***OUTDATE ATTEMPTS*** Some fidgeting about with it in its Settings, trying to create a new template, etc. yielded no resolution. Please fix, I had loved this app for years. Thank you for your work!

When open one file, second last edited file automatically gets opened (Two files get opening when opening one file). Please fix the issue. Also "New file" option comes slow when clicking right button. Please fix issues. Thanks.

This doesn't work on my laptop running Sonoma.

Works good in local folders. Useless for cloud folders. Instructions say to use Quick Actions for cloud folders. Ok great, but an existing file or folder must be highlighted to get the Quick Actions to appear in the right click menu. Then once the Quick Action New File commands appear in the right click menu, it is still necessary to navigate through the folder structure to the location of the current folder. This is no easier for cloud folders than creating a new file from within an application. IMHO, this app needs work. Definitely not worth the money or effort.

Great little utility

I gave the app a bad review sahying that it stopped working in Sonoma. The developer contacted me and a workaround. This problem occurs in many cloud storage folders.

As far as I can tell (at least on Sonoma 14.1) this doesn't work if the folder you're in is already contained within Dropbox. I tried adding Dropbox/etc as external volumes to the list but still don't have the menu showing up (but it DOES show up if I'm in something not with a Dropbox folder). Since I do a LOT of work in Dropbox folders this is basically useless to me. And I did try emailing the developer, twice, about this issue but never saw a reply.

This app is a great example of "Do one thing, but do it well." It lets you create a file in the folder you're in. And in the app's prefs, you can choose which kinds of files you want to be able to create. This keeps the new file menu simple and tailored to your needs. So simple. So good.
