FilePane is a small Mac utility from MyMixApps that makes drag and drop far more useful. When you start dragging a file, a panel of actions appears near your pointer, and dropping the file on an action does the job at once. Instead of opening extra apps to resize a photo, compress a folder or move files into a favourite location, you handle it in the same gesture you use every day in Finder.

Key Features

  • Action panel appears as soon as you start dragging a file or selected text
  • Actions change to match the file type, such as images, folders, documents or text
  • Move or copy files straight into your favourite folders
  • Convert and resize images without opening a separate editor
  • Compress files into an archive and share items through AirDrop or Mail
  • Works beyond Finder, including in apps such as Safari and mail clients
  • Runs on macOS 13 or later on both Intel and Apple Silicon Macs

How to Download

MyMixApps offers FilePane from its own website with a seven day trial that has no limit on features, so you can test every action before buying. Use the link below to open the official product page, download and install the app, and launch it once so it is ready when you next drag a file. Download from the official site
