Folder Hub functions similarly to a floating Finder, cleverly utilizing the notch area on a Mac. When you move your cursor to the notch, a window will pop up and float above other windows, with operations that are nearly identical to Finder.
🚀 **Welcome to Folder Hub!** 🚀
We’re excited to introduce **Folder Hub**, the ultimate floating Finder for Mac! Whether you’re a power user or someone who values efficiency, Folder Hub is here to transform how you access and manage your files.
**Key Features:**
- **Effortless Access:** Instantly access your files by moving your cursor to the Mac’s notch area.
- **Familiar Operations:** Drag and drop, double-click to open, right-click to sort—just like Finder.
- **Custom Workspaces:** Create and quickly access workspaces for your frequently used folders.
**Advantages Over Traditional Finder:**
1. A floating window that’s always accessible.
2. Persistent folder access without accidental closures.
3. Quick access in fullscreen mode with a simple shortcut.
And one more thing: Enjoy a playful touch with our cat paw animation when you enable fun mode in settings! 🐾
We’d love to hear your thoughts! Feel free to ask questions, share your feedback, and let us know how Folder Hub is making a difference for you.
Thank you for checking out Folder Hub, and happy file managing! 🎉
Your product looks fantastic! Unfortunately, I'm not a Mac user, so I can't try it out just yet. Any plans to develop something similar for Windows?
Great work, team, but I have a question: How seamless is the integration with other Mac features like Mission Control or Split View?
Congrats on the launch @lessimore! Excited to try out Finderhub! The personalized recommendation feature sounds promising.
It’s a neat idea but honestly do we really need another way to access our files on Mac, seems like more clutter than anything and that cat paw thing, really?
Looks pretty neat, love how accessible it is, any plans for more animations or maybe color themes for the interface? 😊 Would be great if we could also customize keyboard shortcuts for even faster access.
I get it that some folks might like a floating window, but why would I need another thing cluttering my screen, couldn't the notch be used for something more useful, like a notification bar or battery indicator instead, also, the cat paw animation seems a bit gimmicky, maybe focus on more practical features for people who need efficiency, what do you think about adding a customizable shortcut for accessing different types of folders?
This app launch is another great addition, allowing me to access my most-used applications with just a click. It’s smoothly my workflow, saving me the time I used to spend searching for apps in the Finder.
The space key preview feature is a really time saving. Being able to quickly preview files without opening them in a separate app helps me stay focused and get things done faster.
I love how this app gives me quick access to my desktop files without adding to the clutter on my screen. It’s a clean and efficient way to stay organized, especially when working on multiple tasks.
Congrats on the launch! It’s inspiring to see your dreams turn into reality. Looking forward to seeing your project soar to new heights. Bravo! 🎈 @lessimore
Saw this on Product Hunt seems cool but does it really handle big files or folders without lagging?, Also how's it different from something like Yoink or Dropzone, which both support drag-and-drop & have customization options?, would love to see a comparison chart to know what's unique or better about this one
This is cool! I really like the cat paw animation. Feels similar to NotchNook's App Drawer system. I'm curious if there are any other plans to build additional features?
The cat paw really makes me want to use this lol
Genius use of dead space! Folder Hub is a brilliant idea that turns the notch area on a Mac into a super useful floating Finder. Congratulations on the launch!
This is an interesting solution, @lessimore! The idea of utilizing the notch area for quick file access is quite innovative. As a daily Mac user, I can see how this could enhance efficiency. Excited to give Folder Hub a try! 🚀
This is such a fun idea. I love the cat arm coming out of the island. It is so silly and fun. I'm excited to see where this goes next. Congrats on the launch!
Congratulations on the launch of Folder Hub on Product Hunt! As a real user, I'm excited to see this innovative tool that seamlessly integrates a floating Finder into my Mac experience. The ability to access my files and folders from anywhere on the screen is a game-changer for productivity. Well done, team!
I am more than happy to try this interesting project, but I am a little worried about whether it will have compatibility issues? Will it affect the operation of other projects? Does it take up too much computer memory?
