Sometimes you need to install multiple apps on a Mac. For example, if you buy a new Mac or a second-hand model, you want to put all your favourite apps on it. If you erase a Mac, perhaps to solve a problem or you want a fresh install of the latest version of macOS, you need to spend time afterwards installing all the apps you need. This can be a long and tedious process: finding the apps you want, downloading them, installing them, and then deleting the download. Fortunately, there is a quick way to install your favourite apps on a Mac. Enter just one command in Terminal and then go and have a break while your apps install.
