Enter Space connects your cloud storage accounts to your Apple devices and folds them into Files / Finder so they feel native — and ships a v5 toolkit to actually USE that storage well: a duplicate finder with image, video & audio similarity, a storage analyzer, and a code editor with a real git client. One app for iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV & Apple Watch. SUBSCRIPTION REQUIRED Enter Space needs an in-app purchase to use: a Monthly or Yearly auto-renewing subscription, or a one-time Lifetime purchase. Every feature described below is included with any of them; nothing is sold separately. New subscribers start with a free trial, and Family Sharing is supported. THE V5 TOOLKIT • Doppel Duplicate Finder — find exact or visually & audibly similar images, videos, and audio on any remote. Bulk Keep / Keep None / Invert, rule-based winners, persisted hash cache so re-scans are instant. • Space Inspector — ncdu-style storage analyzer: drill into folders by cumulative size, multi-select bulk delete, QuickLook anywhere in the tree. • Code Editor + Git — multi-tab syntax-highlighting editor with a full git side-panel (stage, commit, branch, merge, pull, push, stash, revert), SSH Key Manager, token store, Git Mirror local clones, and HTML / Markdown live preview. CORE FEATURES • Built-in Media Gallery for photos, audio and video as a slideshow. 360° video supported by swipe-to-pan. • File Locking and File Versioning on any supported connection. • Time Portal — point-in-time restoration of any file or folder. • Quick public-link sharing for providers that support it. • Read / write across all configured remotes. • Rename many files at once — select two or more, choose Rename All, and build the new names from a pattern ({name}, a {n} counter, {ext}) or find & replace, with a live old → new preview that flags collisions before anything is touched. • Encrypt / decrypt on the fly. Create Aliases for fast access to any folder on any cloud. • Widgets for iPhone, iPad & Mac — Photo Slideshow, Storage Dashboard, Bandwidth and Sync Status — plus a used/free capacity bar on every storage location. NATIVE FILES INTEGRATION • Spotlight Index, Time Machine Backup, Download / Evict via the File Provider Service. • Mac: a file system extension can mount your remotes as a real volume that Finder and Terminal see — switch a remote on or off and the volume updates in place. • In-app remote file browsing, local bookmarks, cross-remote file ops. • Accepts files from other apps via the share sheet and Open With. AUTOMATION • Schedule sync tasks (copy, move, sync, bisync, photos backup) with rich triggers — including App Intents. • Run Now from the context menu — last-in-wins, no waiting on the queue. SUPPORTED CLOUDS Dropbox, Google Drive, Microsoft OneDrive, pCloud, Box, Mega, Microsoft Azure Files, Microsoft Azure Blob Storage, Backblaze B2, Amazon S3-compatible storage, Google Cloud Storage, and many more rclone backends. PROTOCOLS FTP, SSH / SFTP, HTTP, WebDAV, SMB / Samba. Built on the open-source rclone project. You can drop in an rclone.conf to configure any backend rclone supports. You choose which remotes appear in Files / Finder. SECURITY A local web server with a rolling password runs on the device for local-only communication. External traffic uses each provider's standard secure protocol. SSH keys live in iCloud Keychain and ride between your devices. PRIVACY Enter Space facilitates connections to YOUR cloud accounts. We don't host storage, we collect zero usage data, and there's no telemetry. All file transfers go directly from your device to your cloud, through rclone running locally on your device. Tested heavily but you accept responsibility for any data loss. Use at your own risk.
