Product Description:
We've all felt that drop in workflow when we've had to locate a file in the Finder. Even if you know exactly where something is, it can take many clicks to navigate to that place in the hierarchy. It always seems like work to remember where you left things. Why after 20 plus years are we still having to navigate folders in order to find something on a hard drive?
What's new in this version:
- Fixed file type group problem
- Fixed problem with some extension based file types

I've been spoiled by Yojimbo and the ease with which it lets me tag, store, organize, and find documents. I've been wishing for something that would work with the rest of my files the way Yojimbo does, and the developers of Leap have made my wish come true. I can tag all of my files, and find by almost any criteria. The searches are much faster than plain old spotlight searches, and leap makes it easy for me to just search the documents I want.
Some reviewers here have complained that you can do what Leap does with the tools built into OS X. Possibly true, but you can also use an axe instead of a chainsaw to cut down a tree. Which tool does the job more quickly and easily?
I think complaints about the price are fair. It took me a long time to decide to cough up $59. If it had been $29, I would have bought Leap a long time ago. Judging by the number of downloads here, I think the price is scaring people away. That's too bad, because this is a great product. If the developers lowered the price, they'd sell many more copies.

Personally I have always found Spotlight searches to be time-consuming and poor. Leap has literally changed the way I file and find things. Have dumped all my registered note-collecting apps (DevonThink, EagleFiler, Yojimbo, and the list goes on) and am running with Leap + tags + Finder. Absolutely wonderful application, well worth the money.
The lads are still polishing off the sharp edges and communicate really well.
