Orange is a free macOS menu-bar app for converting files through a drag-and-Shift gesture, with a browser demo and support advertised for 55 file types.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-21 issue.

For: Mac users who regularly convert files
Worth noticing: Its format wheel is designed to show only output formats relevant to the file being held.

Field notes

The site describes keyboard selection, batch conversion, a Finder shortcut, and a small panel for long-running jobs. Its implementation notes distinguish built-in macOS frameworks from optional helpers: ffmpeg is listed for additional audio and video formats, while LibreOffice and Keynote are shown for some document conversions.
