Ratings and reviews

Fantastic app! I was looking for something that would auto sync my game Saves to google drive without having to use the emulator cloud saver app. It defaults to Dropbox and I dont want to pay the subscription. Google Drive and Google Files had no option to auto sync a folder. I tried researching on it but no luck. It was telling me to download a software on my PC. This app was cheaper than the other one which was $9.99 for JUST google drive but this one has all cloud saves accounts. Very happy!!

Great application - when it works. After an update, my config has been reset once again. It's getting a bit tiring having to set up the application once every 6 months or so. If that is fixed, it's a 5-star application without a doubt :)

I have uses this for years now, and I can't believe I didn't review it. I had struggled with solutions for syncing between phone, tablet, computers, and cloud. In particular, I use this to keep a KeePass database file synced so that my passwords are all under my own control. Extremely happy with this solution.

What's new

UI updates, new filters, V2 folderpair fixes.
