Using the App

Once you’re signed in, your EUnifyer Drive is available in your file manager (Finder on macOS, File Explorer on Windows, your Files app on Linux) under EUnifyer Desktop — Your Name in the sidebar. Use it like any other folder.

Files on demand

To save disk space, files start as online-only placeholders — you can see every file, but its contents aren’t downloaded until you need them.

  • A cloud badge means the file is online-only.
  • Open or preview a file and EUnifyer downloads it automatically. After that it’s available instantly, even offline.
  • Downloaded files show a solid badge to indicate they’re stored locally.

Opening a placeholder requires an internet connection. If you’re offline, only files you’ve already downloaded (or pinned) will open.

Adding and editing files

Everything syncs both ways, automatically:

  • Add a file or folder to the EUnifyer folder → it uploads to your Drive.
  • Edit a file → the new version syncs back.
  • Rename, move, or delete → the change mirrors to EUnifyer and your other devices.

There’s nothing to click — saving a file is all it takes.

Keep files offline (pin) or free up space

  • To keep a file or folder available offline, right-click it and choose the option to keep it on this device (pin). Pinned items are always downloaded and never removed automatically.
  • To free up space, remove the local copy of files you’ve finished with — they become online-only placeholders again, with no data lost.

Share a file

Right-click any file or folder in the EUnifyer folder and choose Share to create a link you can send to others — no need to open the web app.

Sync status & settings

Click the EUnifyer icon (menu bar on macOS, system tray on Windows/Linux) any time to:

  • See whether everything is up to date or syncing, and view recent activity.
  • Pause and resume syncing.
  • Open Settings to adjust:
    • Start on login — launch automatically when you sign in to your computer.
    • Pause on battery / metered networks — avoid syncing on the go.
    • Bandwidth limits — cap upload/download speeds.
    • Storage — manage how much disk cached files may use.

EUnifyer Office

Native document editing with EUnifyer Office is coming soon. Once it’s available, you’ll be able to open documents straight from the EUnifyer folder into EUnifyer Office. For now, files open in your Mac’s default app.

Next: Updates.
