New in Offloader v1.3 — Scan your Mac, find wasted space, and auto-offload to iCloud
Offloader v1.3 just released today and brings a highly requested feature from r/macapps -> Scan & Report! See a breakdown of where the most space is being taken up on your Mac that can be offloaded to iCloud Drive -- then tell Offloader to send it up to the cloud and save space immediately.
I've also bunched in a number of bug fixes and general quality of life improvements.
I'll be handing out free Offloader promo codes to the best feature ideas below, cheers!
Problem: macOS can leave large iCloud Drive files stored locally for days or weeks, even when “Optimize Mac Storage” is enabled, causing your disk to fill up unexpectedly. Offloader solves this by proactively offloading unused files from your Mac while keeping them safely in iCloud, freeing space automatically without deleting anything.
Comparison: Top alternatives include macOS built-in “Optimize Storage” and Terminal-based approaches like using brctl evict. These either run slowly, require manual steps, or offer limited control. Offloader is better because it adds scheduled scans, customizable delays, and drag-and-drop instant offloading — all in a lightweight background utility with no manual intervention.
Price: $1.99 lifetime purchase.
