About

Crosspace

Crosspace turns the cloud accounts you already own into one Drive. Connect Google Drive, Dropbox, Box, and any S3-compatible bucket - Amazon S3, Cloudflare R2, Backblaze B2, Wasabi, MinIO. Crosspace pools them into a single Library and routes each upload to whichever account has room, so you stop keeping track of which drive a file landed on. CLIENT-ONLY BY DESIGN Crosspace has no file backend. Your credentials stay on your device in the iOS Keychain, and files move directly between your phone and your own accounts. Nothing is hosted, proxied, or seen by us. WHAT IT DOES - Unified Library across every connected account - Smart routing - uploads go to the drive with the most free space - Spanned files - split a large file across several accounts when no single one has room - Background uploads that survive leaving the app - Share sheet - send files to Crosspace from anywhere in iOS - Vault - a passphrase-encrypted .cpvault file backs up your account logins, so a new phone is a restore instead of a re-setup - 13 languages, including Arabic and Hebrew with full right-to-left layout CROSSPACE PLUS - Up to 25 connected accounts, instead of 3 - Unlimited spanned files - Priority and round-robin upload routing - Shrink photos and videos before uploading - Zip and unzip inside your Library - LAN Host - browse your pool from another device on the same Wi-Fi - Photo Backup - copy your Camera Roll into your own cloud accounts Plus is available monthly, yearly, or as a one-time lifetime purchase. Crosspace does not sell storage. It makes better use of the storage you already pay for.
