Mac

A native version history for the folders you pick - rewind a whole folder to any moment, not one file. RETRACE - FOLDER HISTORY Retrace is a native macOS app that keeps a local version history of the folders you choose, saving a copy of each file seconds after you stop editing it - or waiting for a snapshot, on the folders you would rather it left alone - so you can rewind an entire folder to any moment and undo the rewind if it was not the one. REWIND A FOLDER, NOT A FILE. Retrace keeps a quiet local history of the folders you choose. A few seconds after you stop editing a file it saves a copy - or, for a folder you would rather it left alone, it waits until you ask. Because those copies share their data with the original they start out costing nothing. When something goes wrong you put the whole folder back to how it was - and back to now again if that was not it either. FEATURES • Saves a copy seconds after you stop editing a file • Or record only when you ask - one snapshot, one moment • Rewind a whole folder to any moment, then undo it • Snapshot from any app with a global shortcut • Right-click in Finder to start, snapshot or restore • Compare two versions side by side: text, images, PDFs • Knows an overwrite from an edit, and keeps both • Nothing leaves your Mac and no account is needed HOW IT WORKS • Right-click any folder in Finder, choose History, and switch it on. There is nothing else to configure. • Keep working. Retrace saves a copy whenever a file settles, and skips it when the contents did not change. Set a folder to record only when asked and it waits instead - for a snapshot from the folder itself, from the Finder, or from a keyboard shortcut wherever you happen to be. • Open the history to compare any two versions, then rewind the whole folder, or one file, to the moment you want. • When a file is not edited but replaced - dragged over, unzipped onto, synced down - Retrace says so, and keeps what it replaced. FREE TRIAL Retrace is free to download and comes with a 14-day free trial of the full app. When the trial ends, the app locks and a one-time purchase unlocks it for good. No subscription. SUPPORTED LANGUAGES English, Turkish, German, Spanish
