How it works<br>From drop to link in seconds
Drop<br>Drag files onto the menu bar icon or its dropdown — images, audio, video, markdown, PDFs, zips. Literally any file.
Upload<br>Dropper converts anything web-unfriendly on the fly, computes audio waveforms and thumbnails, and streams it all to your R2 bucket with live progress in the icon.
Paste<br>The share page URL is already on your clipboard. Paste it in Slack, iMessage, an email — the page is live, served straight from your bucket.
Share pages<br>Pages people actually enjoy opening<br>Every drop becomes a dark, focused page served from your own bucket — not a download prompt, not someone else's branding.
Optional image gallery view. Multiple images become a compact square grid; click any tile for a smoothly animated, full-screen lightbox with a blurred backdrop and previous/next navigation.<br>SoundCloud-style audio player. Waveforms are computed at upload time, drawn crisp at any DPI, click-to-seek, one track playing at a time.<br>A real video player. Custom scrubber, and the layout is sized from the video's dimensions before a single frame loads — the page never reflows.<br>Rendered markdown & text previews. Notes read like documents, code reads like code.<br>Native PDF embedding and clean download cards for everything else.

Screenshots built in<br>Capture, mark up, share — without leaving the menu bar<br>Capture an area, a window, or a whole display. Point with arrows, lines, ellipses and boxes, scribble freehand, drop in text, crop out what doesn't matter — seven colors, stroke or fill, any size. Then upload straight to a share link, or save to your Desktop.
Collections<br>Many files, one link<br>One drop, one page. Drop five files at once and they share a single page — in the order you dropped them.<br>Add more later. Drag onto an existing share and choose “Add to collection” — same link, more content.<br>Drag to reorder. Rearrange files in the dropdown and the live page updates to match.

Web-safe by default<br>Links that play everywhere<br>Apple formats are great — until you send them to someone on Chrome. Dropper converts as it uploads, so nobody ever writes back “it won't open”.
HEIC→JPEG
AIFF→WAV
MOV / HEVC→MP4
Lossless where possible — H.264 movies are remuxed, not re-encoded, and AIFF→WAV is a bit-perfect repack. Every conversion can be switched off.
Stays tidy<br>Organized without trying
Archive, don't break<br>Archiving clears a share out of your list — but the link keeps working. Declutter without killing anything you already sent.
Pin what matters<br>Pin your evergreen links — the press kit, the demo reel — and they stay at the top of the dropdown.
Folders & breadcrumbs<br>Browse your bucket in folders with breadcrumbs. Shares get human-readable names like mixdown-final-v3-x8d2k1 — readable to you, unguessable to everyone else.
Ownership<br>Your bucket. Your account. Your data.<br>No middleman storage. Files go from your Mac directly to your Cloudflare R2 bucket. Dropper never sees, proxies, or holds your data.<br>No subscription. Dropper is free — no plans, no accounts. Storage is your own Cloudflare R2 bucket: the free tier covers 10 GB with zero egress fees, and anything beyond it Cloudflare bills to you directly.<br>Links that outlive the app. Share pages are plain files in your bucket, served from its public URL — or a custom domain you attach. If Dropper disappeared tomorrow, your links would keep working for as long as your bucket and its public endpoint stay up.<br>Unlisted by default. Every share URL ends in an unguessable random suffix, and there is no index to browse. Anyone you hand a link to can open it — no accounts, no passwords.

It's yours.<br>The guided wizard connects your Cloudflare account, enables your bucket's public r2.dev URL, and keeps your token safely in your Mac's Keychain. Attach your own domain to the bucket whenever you like — Dropper switches over with one Settings field.
