FilePop app icon

FilePop

A file browser in your menu bar.

Every folder on your Mac, right in the menu bar. Summon it with a keystroke, grab a file, and get back to work.

Or pick it up in a bundle with over twenty other apps. Also available on Setapp.

What it does

⌘

Always a keystroke away

A global hotkey pops the picker over whatever you're doing. Press it again to tuck it away. Grab a file and get back to work.

▢

Full browser, or a tiny one

Expand to a full three-column window when you're exploring, or collapse to a one-column mini browser when you just need a file fast.

↕

Drag files in and out

Drop files into Mail, Slack, anywhere. Drag files (or Safari images, text clippings, links) onto a folder to drop them there. Hover a folder mid-drag and it springs open so you can keep going.

⧉

Popover or floating window

Keep it tucked under the menu bar icon, or set it free as a floating window that stays above your work wherever you park it.

★

Finder favorites, in sync

The sidebar mirrors your Finder favorites, or pin your own. Drop a file onto any sidebar folder to send it straight there.

>_

A filepop command

Type filepop in any terminal to open the picker right where you are, or filepop ~/Downloads to jump to a folder.
