Automount Blocker - AMBerDisk
Block, act on disk auto mount
Only for Mac
$1.99
Mac
AMBerDisk allows you to take various actions when you connect a disk to your Mac – block the mount, mount it with special options (such as read-only), or run a script of your choosing.
You can create various rules that match volumes based on their UUID, exact name, or a regular expression (regex) matching their name. And if you later want to mount a volume that was blocked from automatically mounting, you can do so manually.
The app shows you volumes that are currently mounted and unmounted, showing you the information you need to create rules and giving you the option to unmount or mount them as you'd like. You can also put unmounted disks in the menu bar, giving you easy access to mount them manually (requires permission in Settings).
Useful for:
- Reducing clutter if you have an external drive with many partitions
- Avoiding accidental writes to a drive you want to preserve
- Automating actions when you connect a drive with the full power of shell scripting
- Performing the same type of action for a large number of volumes based on a single regex without hardcoding each one
Note: Encrypted drives may not work with some features, such as remounting the drive from the AMBerDisk app or menu bar, or remounting them as read-only.
Ratings & Reviews
This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
- Minor UI changes, updated app icon for macOS 26 Tahoe's Liquid Glass design
- Improve experience when using the app with accessibility features like VoiceOver
- Disks without a stable UUID can now be targeted via a name-based rule. This includes volumes like NTFS volumes, which were previously ignored unintentionally due to the lack of a UUID.
- The background process, if enabled, can now detect when the main app has been updated and automatically restart itself. (It's recommended to manually restart the machine after updating to this version, as the previous version's background process won't automatically restart, however. Future updates won't require this.)
