Very few Mac apps make any effort to understand or throttle how much data they use, and TripMode fills that gap. The idea in this version is the same as with the previous two releases: TripMode tracks data usage by app and lets you create lists of blocked and allowed apps, as well as set an overall limits of bytes transferred to and from the internet. TripMode isn’t about security, but it can be used in addition to bandwidth control as an effective way to cut off apps from communicating over the internet on specific networks or at certain times. To monitor your usage, TripMode 3 provides a simple tool that tames your Mac’s galloping consumption. That’s a problem when you have an internet connection plan with monthly limits, overage fees, or simple capacity issues. It’s easy for a Mac to swallow oceans of data given the speed and ubiquity of internet connections. Price comparison from over 24,000 stores worldwide
