Tilde is the native Finder replacement for Mac. Browse folders in custom split layouts, organise files by status or client with custom properties, restore tabs and layouts with saved workspaces, and too much more to list. Purchase once, no subscription.
Hey all! I'm Blaze, an Aussie developer-designer, and the maker of Tilde.
Tilde started with my own frustrations with Finder. I wanted a sidebar I could organise around my projects, flexible split views, and better ways to find and organise files. So I built the file manager I wanted to use.
Tilde is a native Mac app that lets you:
- Browse folders in whatever split-pane layout you like, with tabs in every pane.
- Create custom sidebars and groups for different contexts.
- Save workspaces to return to your tabs and layouts.
- Add custom properties like status or client, then filter, sort and group your files.
- Jump to files, folders and actions with the command palette.
It's for people who spend a lot of their day working with files and want more control over how they work.
There's a 7-day free trial, then a one-time purchase. No subscription.
I'd love to hear what you think!
