McSync
Drag a folder in
From the Finder onto the surface. It sits there as a tile with a name and a colour — and you can tell at a glance which one it is.
For the Mac
Nothing gets
Nothing gets
lost.
And you watch it happen.
Twenty years of photos sit on a single disk. McSync puts them down a second time — on the external SSD, on the NAS, wherever you like. Drag a folder in, draw a line, let go. No expertise required.

How it works
- Drag and drop
- Nothing is deleted unasked
- No account, no cloud
Dead simple
If you can drag a folder,
If you can drag a folder,
you can use McSync.
No wizards, no command line, no jargon. Three moves, and it runs.
Draw a line
From one tile to another. The line is the instruction: “take this over there.” As many lines as you need.
Let go
One click, and McSync tells you first what it would do. Nothing moves a single file until you say yes.
Your pictures
A disk doesn't last forever.
A disk doesn't last forever.
Your photos should.
Hard drives fail, usually without warning. The only thing that helps is a second copy — and it has to be current, otherwise it is just an old promise.
- New pictures are added without overwriting what is already there.
- At the destination a file is either fully there or not at all — never half.
- Whatever should go lands in the Trash, not in nowhere.
- And weeks later, when the question comes: the log says what happened.
One more thing, openly said: a sync is not a backup, and we accept no liability for lost data. Keep a real backup as well — that holds for any tool of this kind. More in the terms of use.
Watch it
Copying you actually enjoy watching.
Not a bar that sits still for ten minutes and tells you nothing. You see which file is running, how fast it goes and what is still to come.
- For a big file, a second bar runs just for that one.
- Every finished file gets its tick — you see the work grow.
- While something is running, your Mac stays awake.
- A notification at the end, even when you have long moved on.
Connect
One board. As many routes
One board. As many routes
as you need.
Laptop, external SSD, NAS, the archive in the basement: every place is a tile, and you connect them however suits you. Each line has its own job — one keeps two folders equal, another only fills up.
One look tells you where you stand
After checking, the line takes on a colour. That is all you need to read:
- All equal
- Differences
- Have a look
- Several boards: one for home, one for the office, one per client.
- Every tile can tell you how much lies in it.
- Related places can be grouped and moved together.
Keep them equal
Both sides on the same state — one way or both ways.
Only fill up
What is missing is added. What exists stays untouched. The harmless choice.
No knot in your stomach
Nothing happens behind your back.
A program that can delete files owes you an explanation before it does.
Show first, then act
Beforehand it says what will happen — counted out. Only then may it run.
Trash, not gone
Deleted files sit in your Mac's Trash. That is where you get them back.
Undo
Mis-clicked? The previous state is one move away.
All on record
Every run is written down: when, how long, which file.
Stays with you
No cloud, no account, no server. McSync is not even allowed online.
A real Mac app
Windows, keyboard shortcuts, dark mode — all where you expect them.
Price
Starting costs nothing.
