What you get

You can organize files in Finder while checking changes before committing.

FinderCraft gives you a way to gather files from different Finder windows before moving them together. You place them on a staging Shelf, then send the batch to its destination, rather than juggling source and destination windows. You can also stage your current selection with a keystroke.

When you need to reconcile two folders, you can see which files are missing, identical, new, or changed before deciding what to copy or update. For bulk renaming, you see proposed filenames beside the originals before confirming. If your Desktop or another folder is cluttered, you can sort its files into folders by type in one action.

You stay in Finder throughout. Risky changes get a preview, files aren't silently overwritten, and an activity log lets you undo actions. Your files stay on your Mac, with no account, cloud processing, analytics, or trackers.

  • Move gathered files together

    You can collect files from several Finder windows on the Shelf, then move the batch to one destination.

  • Check differences before copying

    You can compare two folders side by side and decide what needs copying or updating before changing anything.

  • Catch filename mistakes early

    You see each proposed filename beside its original, so you can adjust your naming pattern before applying it.

  • Turn clutter into folders

    You can sort a mixed collection into folders by file type in one action.

  • Review and undo changes

    You get previews for risky changes, no silent overwrites, and a log that lets you undo actions.

Best for

  • You regularly move files between multiple folders
  • You need to compare folder contents before copying
  • You have cluttered folders or batches of files to rename

Skip it if

You probably don't need it if Finder already handles your occasional file moves and renames comfortably.

From the developer

FinderCraft — file manager for Mac. It adds a staging Shelf and a set of focused file tools right inside the Finder windows you already use, so moving, renaming, and organizing files feels calm instead of chaotic.
