The file manager for Mac
Your files,
finally fast.
ZincFiles is the fast, keyboard-first file manager for Mac. Search as you type, run any command from ⌘K, work in two folders at once, and see what every folder weighs.

- Private, on your Mac
- macOS 26 or later
Built for people who live in their files. Every action has a shortcut, every folder shows its size, and search answers before you finish typing.

- Command K: Command Palette
- Command Backslash: Dual Pane

Folder Sizes & Disk Usage

Every folder shows its real size, measured live as you browse. Open Disk Usage for a map of any folder, or let Large Files and Duplicates find what you can clear out.
