Local-first desktop app

Save storage space without breaking your folder paths.

Folddr moves selected large folders to managed storage and leaves a shortcut link (symlink) in the original location, so your apps keep working the same way. Your files stay on your device.

How It Works

Three simple steps.

1. Choose a large folder

Folddr moves the selected folder into managed storage and leaves a link in the original folder path.

2. Keep working normally

Your tools still use the same path, so your workflow keeps running while storage is freed up.

3. Restore when needed

Restore brings your folder back and removes the link, with guardrails to avoid risky actions.
