Features
A shared network-file workflow for Mac and iPad, with platform-specific capabilities where the operating systems differ.
Mirrored Locations
Folders that should hold the same data, kept that way — two of them, or a dozen. Group them in Settings and choose how they stay in step: one location can be the source of truth that the others are brought to match, or the most recent copy of each file can win everywhere. Scan first and you get a folder-by-folder picture of what already matches and what has drifted, without writing anything. When you do sync, every deletion and every file whose copy at the destination is newer is listed for you first — and removals go to the Trash unless you say otherwise. Run it by hand or on a schedule.
Not every location has to hold everything. Tick folders and files in or out per location: a drive for one side of a family can carry only those albums, while the others keep the whole collection. Anything a location opts out of is left completely alone there — never copied to it, and never removed from it, even by an exact sync. When you do want something gone, one button removes it from every location at once, after showing you exactly what it found and where.
Verifying also speeds things up. Once a scan has confirmed a folder matches, a large transfer out of it reads from every matching copy at once — two locations, or five — with each part claimed by whichever copy is free, so a slower drive simply carries less and never holds up the finish. A copy that has drifted since the scan is dropped from the read rather than trusted.
Swarm P2P Distribution
Push one file to Macs, iPads, and browser clients on your local network. MultiSourcery divides the file into SHA-256 verified chunks, tracks which peers hold each part, and lets participants fetch from more than one available source. The host page shows the participating machines and live transfers.
Visual Network Topology Map
Scan your network and see nearby Macs, iPads, Apple services, storage, routers, extenders, printers, and other local devices laid out visually. Both editions combine advertised services with direct reachability and port evidence; macOS also saves and reloads network maps.
Native Network Protocols
Connect through SMB, SFTP, NFS, WebDAV, FTP, FTPS, rsync over SSH, and HTTP(S) on Mac or iPad. The Mac edition also provides AFP, SCP, FXP, Direct Copy, and desktop-specific authentication paths.
Mirrored Locations
Group two or more folders that should hold the same data. Either pick one as the source of truth, or keep the most recent copy of each file everywhere. Per folder and per file, choose which locations take part — so one drive can hold one side of a family and another the rest. Scanning changes nothing; syncing shows you every deletion and every overwrite before it happens.
Swarm P2P Distribution
Distribute large files across Macs, iPads, and browser clients on the local network. Files are split into individually verified chunks, peers advertise the parts they hold, and clients can fetch from more than one available source. The coordinator reports machines, holdings, and live transfers.
Distribution Queue
Queue files from multiple sources to multiple destinations. Switch between Copy and Sync modes, choose your packet size, and hit Go. Track per-file chunk progress in real time. Each destination reports independently so one slow host never stalls the rest.
Saved Workflows and History
Keep saved connections, queue choices, transfer receipts, and reusable network maps inside the app. Resume interrupted work, retry failures, and review what reached each destination without maintaining external files or command-line launchers.
Secure Credential Storage
Credentials and identities are stored in the Apple Keychain — never in transfer profiles as plaintext. Both editions support protocol-appropriate passwords and keys; macOS adds Kerberos, Active Directory, and other desktop authentication workflows.
Apple Platform Discovery
Use Bonjour, bounded local probes, service fingerprints, offline vendor data, and web-console evidence to distinguish Macs, iPads, storage, routers, and wireless extenders. Discovery runs in the app using public Apple APIs.
Choose the platform for the job
The workflow is familiar on both devices; the operating system sets the boundaries.
Mac
Best for deeper network inspection, saved map documents, mirrored folder pairs, multi-window file work, and long-running hosts.
Mac availability →iPad
Best for a portable touch workspace with Files and external-drive access, native network clients, foreground hosting, verified queues, and Swarm participation.
