TripMode is a handy little app for your Mac that lives in the status bar. It helps you manage your internet connection, especially when you're using mobile hotspots. You know how mobile data can get expensive? This app helps keep your bill in check by blocking internet access for certain apps when you're connected to a mobile network.
The cool thing about TripMode is that it's not just for mobile networks. You can activate it anytime, no matter what type of internet you're on. If you've got a monthly data limit, this tool is perfect for making sure you don't accidentally go over.
Once you turn on TripMode, it will automatically block internet access for apps that you haven't approved yet. In the main menu of TripMode, you'll see a list of all the apps trying to connect to the internet. You just check the boxes next to the ones that you want to use while blocking the rest.
If you're dealing with high mobile data costs, it's best to download big files or update apps when you're on a cheaper network. The same goes for backing up your files online or syncing with Cloud services. With TripMode, it makes it easier because it blocks both uploads and downloads for those unapproved apps.
If there's an app you need access to temporarily, no worries! You can give it permission with just a click of your mouse.
If managing limited monthly data sounds like something you'd like help with, then TripMode is definitely worth checking out. It automatically kicks in when you're connecting to a mobile hotspot but works great with any kind of network too!
