Offloader is a smart iCloud Drive space saver that accelerates file offloading to save space on your Mac beyond what iCloud Drive will normally offload. Set custom offloading schedules, stay in control, and keep your Mac clean—automatically.
I built Offloader because macOS often left my iCloud Drive full of files that could be safely offloaded—but never were. I wanted something lightweight that would quietly reclaim space without touching anything important.
Offloader monitors your iCloud Drive and uses safe macOS APIs to trigger offloads only when files are backed up and unused—based on delays you control.
It’s private, native, and fast.

No way, this nails the exact pain of running out of space mid-project! Love that you can control when files get offloaded—does it handle huge video folders smoothly too?

Who hunted Offloader?
Offloader was hunted by Eric Mann. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it.
