Folders File Manager

Press-release
February 21, 2023

Updated Oct 10, 2023

Folders File Manager is designed for users who recently transitioned from a PC as well as for those who have always missed a tree-style file manager on their Mac.

A QUOTE FROM THE DEVELOPER
When I changed my daily working environment from Windows to Mac, I was quite surprised to not find an Explorer-like file manager for macOS. For a newcomer, Finder seemed just a bit more confusing than I would prefer, so I strived to combine a familiar Explorer-like UX with the pleasing UI aesthetics of a native macOS app.
