Glider Lite

Name: Glider Lite
Author: osi.vibe.code

Drop files. They glide into Dropbox.

macOS - Coming Soon

macOS 13+

Trouble with Glider Lite? Get support

Glider Lite puts your Dropbox one drop away, straight from the Mac App Store. Drag files onto its icon in the Dock or the menu bar and they land in your Dropbox — no Dropbox app needed, and no device slot used up. Several Dropbox accounts? Glider asks which one.

Coming soon to the Mac App Store.

All the Glider editions side by side, with what each one can do: the Glider editions.

Features

Drop and done Drop files on the Dock icon or the menu-bar bird and they upload.
A Glider folder Pick a folder on your Mac for each account and it stays in two-way sync with Dropbox.
Several accounts Personal and work Dropbox side by side, each with its own folder and destination.
Large files Uploads in pieces, checked end to end.
Safe by default Same-name files ask before replacing, and files you drop are copied, so the originals stay where they are.
App Store updates Installs and updates like any other App Store app.
Private No servers, no ads. Files go straight between your Mac and your Dropbox. Crash reports and usage statistics never include your files, file names or Dropbox paths.

Lite or full?

Glider Lite runs in the Mac App Store sandbox. You choose each Glider folder yourself, and files dropped on Glider are always copied, never moved. Want moving files, or updates straight from the developer? Glider for Mac, the full version, is a free download.

Glider works with Dropbox through the Dropbox API. It is not made by or affiliated with Dropbox.
