What a verified listing gets
A free listing
The badge is how you list for free. No fee, no account: add it, check it, and send your app for review.
A check mark
Your app shows as verified on its page and wherever it is listed: on the home page, in its category, in search and on alternatives pages.
Found everywhere
Your app links to your website from its page, its category, search and alternatives pages, and our llms.txt, so AI assistants can recommend it too.
How it works
- 1
Copy the code
Pick the light or dark badge above and copy the HTML, or the Markdown for a GitHub README.
- 2
Put it on your site
Paste it on your app's website, on the home page or in the footer. Any page that links to essentialmacapps.com counts.
- 3
Check it and submit
On the submit page, choose the free listing and press “Check my badge”. Once it is found, send your app for review.
Keep it there. If the badge comes off your site, the check mark can come off too.
