Native macOS App

Manage your
Cloudflare R2
object storage

A native macOS storage manager for Cloudflare R2 and S3-compatible services. Browse buckets, upload files, and preview objects — all from a fast, beautiful interface.

  • Native Swift — no Electron, no web views
  • No telemetry, ever
  • Requires macOS 26 or later

Everything you need to manage R2 storage

A complete toolkit for browsing, uploading, and managing your Cloudflare R2, S3-compatible, and local wrangler dev object storage.

R2 & S3 Support

Connect to Cloudflare R2 or any S3-compatible service. Manage multiple connections with different credentials from one app, or import one straight from an ~/.aws profile — including profiles that sign in through AWS IAM Identity Center.

Cost & Budget

See what every bucket has cost you this month, read from your own Cloudflare analytics — free. Pro projects where the month will land and badges the connection before that projection passes the budget you set.

New in 1.6

Cost & Catalog Monitor

One sweep across every connection you switch Monitor on for, showing month-to-date spend and Data Catalog state side by side. Nothing refreshes on a timer, and every reading is stamped with when it was taken — so an aged figure is marked stale instead of passing as current.

New in 1.6

Connection Doctor

A per-connection diagnostic that does more than name a problem. Each check points at the exact Cloudflare page or setting that fixes it — across your API token, S3 keys, Data Catalog, analytics, endpoint, and iCloud sync. Every probe is a read, run live and never stored.

New in 1.5

R2 SQL Queries

Go from "what is in this bucket?" to "what can I query?". Pick a namespace and table from what your catalog actually reported, and R2Explorer generates ready-to-run R2 SQL — SHOW TABLES, DESCRIBE, a sampled SELECT, and its EXPLAIN plan.

R2 Data Catalog

Browse Iceberg namespaces and tables right beside your objects, free. Pro grades your catalog against the maintenance Cloudflare expects and generates the exact wrangler commands to close each gap — starting with the one that catches people out: compaction with no snapshot expiration.

Data Catalog Safety Guard

A manual delete, upload, rename, or sync into a catalog-backed bucket can leave your Iceberg tables pointing at files that no longer exist. R2Explorer warns you first — on deletes, uploads, renames, Empty Bucket, and mirror/sync alike. Advisory, never a hard block, and free for everyone.

Local wrangler dev

Point the app at a local Wrangler project and browse or edit its R2 buckets straight from disk — no deploy, no network. Reads and writes Miniflare’s on-disk format, so changes show up in wrangler dev.

Object Browser

Navigate buckets and objects with hierarchical folder views and breadcrumbs. Sort, search, and multi-select with ease.

Bucket Mirror & Sync

Copy files between any two connections with live byte-level progress and reliable cancel. Mirror buckets across providers in a single click.

Upload & Download

Drag-and-drop files to upload with automatic multipart for large files. Download single objects, bulk selections, or entire folders.

File Preview

Preview images, JSON, XML, YAML, and source code right in the app. Inspect HTTP headers and object metadata at a glance.

Secure by Default

Credentials stored in the macOS Keychain — never in plain text. Optional iCloud sync keeps your connections and credentials across your Macs, with separate toggles for each. Full App Sandbox support.
