Like the app but there is NO way to change the Ai provider, sort this and you have a winner amigo!

I appreciate the appreciation Simon! That's a good point about the AI. I've added a drop down which now lets you pick the model. It'll be available in the next update, around tomorrow. Currently it's only AI models by Claude as Sidekick works best with it. Will be adding other providers once we get them to give the best possible results for users.

I don’t think it’s fair to assign percentages yet because 67% looks bad. I have had a great experience with the app. It’s fast, responsive and genuinely helpful. My only gripe is having it accidentally show up when I go near the notch. But it’s fantastic. Genuinely - I think you’ve done a great job so far.

Thanks so much for the kind words Roger! I greatly appreciate it. We're trying to reimagine the next generation of user interfaces, and positive feedback helps us do better and pushes us to keep going further. Btw, the notch UI can be switched off in the settings tab. Hope that helps.

A powerful agent for Macs. Form filling is best in class.

Honestly, looks like an app with so much potential, easy to use and with a great design. Unfortunately, it spent my entire monthly quota of AI Credits in 4-5 things I asked it for while testing and trying it out. It wasn’t anything overly long or complicated. Check battery health, ran once the “Clean Mac” shortcut and so on. And it seems to be almost useless without the AI Credits, there’s no option to use my own models, so, sadly, after only a couple of hours I’m uninstalling it…

Thank you for giving Sidekick a proper try. We're sorry about this. Until now, every task ran on Setapp's most capable AI model, even the quick ones. The latest update adds an AI Mode menu, right next to where you type. Choose Balanced and Sidekick uses a lighter model for simple jobs like battery health, saving the stronger one for harder tasks. Choose Fast and it always uses the light model with a super low credit usage. Do come back and try out our latest "Control your Mac via Telegram" feature. Message Sidekick from your phone, wherever you are, and it does the job on your Mac. Connecting takes about ten seconds. I'd love for you to give it another go. Tell me how it works for you. You can always email me at [email protected].

Seems cool, but Ive given it all the requested permissions and then some, hwoever the UI box/window is stuck and cannot be dragged or moving with or withou holding a modifier key and I am not sure if the command box is supposed to move, but the app is unfortuantely unusable for me - really strange and unfortunatel it stays parked above my desktop folders.

Hi, sorry about that. We've fixed the bug, and in the next update you'll be able to drag the bubble anywhere. Thanks for the heads-up, it really helps. Apologies again.

I downloaded the app because it looked good but the privacy policy is too opaque. For an AI app to say content may be sent to AI third parties but not give any further information is reckless.

Thanks for raising this. The privacy section on our home page is only a short summary. The full policy is here: https://sidekick-os.online/privacy.html It names exactly who handles your data. Requests go through Setapp AI (run by MacPaw) to Anthropic's Claude models. Anthropic doesn't train on them and deletes them within 30 days. It also lists what each kind of task sends, what never leaves your Mac, and what we keep and for how long. Your requests aren't stored on our servers, and Sidekick never reads password fields. Any questions, email me at [email protected].

Nice app! What’s funny is that the dev rated his own app :))
