Automator is an automation application for macOS, which enables users to create custom workflows for automating tedious and repetitive actions. It works by providing a graphical user interface for creating and stringing together "actions" from the library of available actions, which can include tasks such as opening applications, copying files, archiving documents, and more. Automator also allows users to easily create custom scripts and applications, which can be saved and reused. Automator is useful for reducing the time and effort involved in tasks that are completed regularly, allowing users to focus on other areas of their work.
Discontinued Since November 2013, the program is no longer supported. The latest version, 1.1.8, released in December 2011, can still be downloaded from the official website.
