ByteCutter vs Fold Commander

ByteCutter splits large files into smaller parts you can send anywhere, and puts them back together on any iPhone, iPad or Mac. Email, chat apps and USB drives all have size limits. With ByteCutter you split a video, an archive or a backup into parts of the right size, send them however you like, and the recipient rebuilds the original file with a tap. SPLIT AND MERGE • Split any file by part size or by number of parts, with a simple step-by-step wizard • One-tap destinations: Email, Discord, WhatsApp, FAT32 drives, CD and DVD • Merge the parts back into the original file, verified piece by piece • Received parts open straight in ByteCutter from Files, Mail or Finder, even one at a time • Missing a part? ByteCutter finds it in a folder and adds it for you RELIABLE BY DESIGN • Every part carries a checksum: damaged or tampered parts are detected, never merged into a broken file • Constant memory use, even with files of many gigabytes • Free-space check before every operation BYTECUTTER PRO One-time purchase, no subscription. Works on iPhone, iPad and Mac and can be shared with Family Sharing. • Files of any size (the free version splits files up to 2 GB) • Password protection with AES-256 encryption • Split whole folders or several files at once • "Split File" action for Shortcuts, Siri and Spotlight MERGING IS ALWAYS FREE Whoever receives your parts can rebuild the file with the free version of ByteCutter.

Designed for iOS and macOS 26 with the new Liquid Glass look, and fully compatible with earlier versions.

A two-panel file manager in the style of the classic desktop commanders. Two folders side by side, function keys at the bottom: F5 copies from one panel to the other, F6 moves, F7 makes a folder, F2 renames, F4 edits, F8 deletes. Free, no ads, no account. TWO PANELS • Browse your iPhone or iPad storage, iCloud Drive, folders of other apps, USB drives and network shares added in Files • Tap a row to open it, tap its icon to mark it — marked files turn red • Sort by name, extension, size or date; show or hide hidden files • Tabs in each panel, each remembering its folder, sorting and marks • Drag a row to the other panel or onto a folder, then choose Copy or Move • Swap panels, open the same folder on the other side, preview anything with Quick Look, share files COPY THE WAY YOU EXPECT • Names already there? Choose once: replace, skip or keep both • Progress with a Cancel button; cancelling leaves no half-written files behind EDIT TEXT (F4) • Edit configs, notes and scripts right in the panel — on the device or straight on a server • Keeps the file's encoding (UTF-8, UTF-16, Cyrillic and Western code pages) and its line endings • Find and replace, a warning before closing unsaved changes, and before overwriting a file changed elsewhere SERVERS • SFTP with password or SSH private key (ed25519, RSA), host key fingerprint check • FTP with passive mode and anonymous login • WebDAV over HTTPS or HTTP: your NAS, cloud storage or own web server • Servers appear as places in a panel: copy and move between your device and a server, or between two servers • Passwords and keys are stored in the Keychain on this device only ARCHIVES • Pack marked files into a ZIP in the other panel • Unpack to the same or the other panel; names in old non-Unicode archives are decoded correctly SELECT, FIND, COMPARE • Select by mask: *.jpg *.png, exclusions after |, folders with a trailing / • Select all, invert, clear • Compare folders: marks what is missing or newer on each side, optionally byte by byte • Find files by name or mask, with text inside, through all subfolders • Folder sizes shown right in the size column IPAD AND KEYBOARD • Panels side by side in any orientation, in Split View and Stage Manager of any width • Keys as on the desktop: arrows and Page Up/Down move the cursor, Tab switches panels, Space marks, Enter opens, Backspace goes up, F2–F8 run the commands; hold ⌘ to see them all • Works with a keyboard connected to iPhone too; on iPad the pointer highlights rows THEMES • Classic grey with a blue path bar, Dark, and Blue in the spirit of DOS commanders — or follow the system IPHONE DUO • Unfolded like a book — one panel on each screen, keys split under each panel, nothing on the fold • Unfolded like a laptop — one panel on top, the other panel and keys below • Folded or on any other iPhone — panels stacked Works on iPhone and iPad with iOS 17 or later.
