MouseBoost Pro 5.2.0

MouseBoost Pro

A Finder Sync extension for macOS that replaces a sparse system context menu with a configurable stack of file, image, PDF, terminal, and automation actions reachable from a single right-click.

Typical Mac workflow

Install from the Mac App Store, enable the extension under System Settings → General → Login Items & Extensions → Finder Extensions, and relaunch Finder if items do not appear—a troubleshooting step the developer documents for macOS extension caching. Control-click files or folders to create templated documents (.txt, .md, .docx, .gitignore), batch-rename with regex rules, cut-and-paste moves with Command+X, open Terminal or iTerm2 (plus Warp, Ghostty, WezTerm, Kitty, and others) at the current path, run Shell or AppleScript snippets, or pin favorite directories and apps on the menu. Clipboard history (Cmd+Shift+V by default) recalls text, images, and colors with optional iCloud sync and allowlists.

Media and document tools

Image actions cover format conversion, resizing, AI background removal, cropping presets, rotation, compression, batch icon recolor, stitching, and text watermarks. A conversion toolbox adds OCR from PDFs and scans, PDF merge and split, and Office-to-PDF export. Version 5.2.0 extends that line with PDF split by page range, image/PDF watermark tiling, and multi-image stitching with drag-to-reorder preview—useful when preparing assets or documents without opening separate apps.

Customization and third-party Finder apps

Every menu entry can be reordered, renamed, disabled, or pinned to the top level; custom keyboard shortcuts cover main actions. Settings now include Cmd+F global search to locate features quickly in a long list. Quick Access can also hook into third-party file managers such as QSpace and Path Finder when enabled in preferences, which matters if you do not live in Apple’s Finder full time.

Licensing and version 5.2.0

MouseBoost Pro is a one-time Mac App Store purchase (about $9.99 in US pricing) with Family Sharing; a separate free MouseBoost app exists with in-app upgrades. The developer reports no data collection. macOS 10.11 or later is listed, though recent features assume current Finder and OCR APIs on newer releases. Release 5.2.0 adds LAN file sharing with QR codes, richer “copy file as” formats (path, Markdown link, directory tree), Otty terminal support, and general bug fixes alongside the media and settings improvements above.
