The record

Purpose: Floodtide checks Mac applications for updates and lets users update supported apps in one place.
Supported macOS: Floodtide runs on macOS 13 Ventura or later.
CPU support: Floodtide supports Apple silicon and Intel Macs.
Update sources: Floodtide checks Sparkle feeds, its signed catalog, Electron feeds, Homebrew Cask, GitHub Releases and the Mac App Store.
Automatic updates: Floodtide can check on a schedule, show a menu-bar count and install updates that the user has allowed.
Backups and undo: Floodtide can retain replaced app versions for three days, a week, two weeks or a month and restore a retained backup with Undo Last Update.
Coverage: The coverage page lists 4,795 apps, including 3,263 matched through Homebrew and 1,532 covered through Floodtide's signed catalog.
Security checks: Before replacement, Floodtide verifies downloads by checksum or code signature and requires the new build to carry the same Apple developer identity as the installed app.
Apple notarization: The app is signed and notarised by Apple.
Privacy: Installed-app inventory stays local by default, optional usage analytics are off until enabled, and Floodtide says it does not sell or share data for advertising.
Trial behavior: The 14-day trial has all features unlocked without a card or account; afterward scanning remains free while installing requires a license.
Support: Support is available by email or Discord, and both channels connect users with the person who wrote the code.
Notable limits: Floodtide leaves apps requiring administrator approval, vendor installers or newer macOS versions for the user to handle and does not automatically close open apps.
