Ratings & Reviews

  • This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.

Bug fixes and polish for the Mac App Store build: safer first-run folder picker behavior, clearer empty-location status, improved filter accessibility, an Open With action in the main result surfaces, and a visible saved-search delete entry. Search remains local-first; filenames, paths, index data, and diagnostics stay on your Mac.
