MSRX Drive
MSRX Drive app icon A free desktop app by MSRX

All your files.
One beautiful window.

MSRX Drive brings Google Drive, iCloud Drive, your Desktop, Downloads and Documents together in one fast, private file manager. Browse, preview, search and move files across all of them without switching apps.

Coming soon to the Mac App Store How your data stays private

Free. No account with us, no ads, no tracking. Requires macOS 14 or later.

Built for the way you actually work

Every source in one sidebar, with the polish of a native app.

One home for every file

Google Drive, shared files and shared drives sit beside iCloud Drive, Desktop, Downloads and Documents. Home and Recents show your latest work from all of them.

Real previews

Thumbnails for photos, PDFs and documents, and full Quick Look with the space bar. Google Docs, Sheets and Slides open as previews too.

Search everything at once

One search box looks through Google Drive and the folders on your computer together, and shows results as they arrive.

Upload and download in the background

Drop files in to upload them. Big files stream from disk, transfers can be cancelled or retried, and Google Docs download as Word, Excel or PowerPoint files.

Everything you expect from a file manager

Rename, duplicate, copy, move, star-aware Favorites, Trash with restore, multi-select, drag and drop, and an Info panel with size, dates and location.

More than one Google account

Connect several Google accounts and switch between them from the sidebar. Recents, Favorites and Shared cover all of them.

Private by design. No servers at all.

  • MSRX runs no server for this app. Your files travel only between your computer and Google.
  • Your Google sign-in is kept in your computer's Keychain, on this device only.
  • No analytics, no crash trackers, no advertising, no data sold or shared.
  • Folders on your computer are opened only after you pick them yourself.
  • Signing out revokes the app's access at Google and wipes the stored sign-in.

Questions

Is MSRX Drive free?

Yes. There is no paid tier, no subscription and no advertising.

Does MSRX keep a copy of my files?

No. MSRX has no server for this app. Files move directly between your computer and Google Drive, and previews of Drive files are kept in your computer's temporary folder for at most 24 hours.

Why does Google ask for access to my whole Drive?

MSRX Drive is a file manager: to browse, rename, move and delete the files you already have, it needs the same Drive access a file manager on any platform needs. The app only acts on files when you ask it to.

Can I use it without a Google account?

Yes. Choose "Browse Local Files Only" and use it for iCloud Drive, Desktop, Downloads and Documents. You can add Google Drive later.

How do I remove the app's access to my Google account?

Right-click your account in the sidebar and choose Sign Out, or use Settings, Accounts. You can also remove it from Google's side at myaccount.google.com/permissions.
