Features
- Menu bar (macOS) / system tray (Windows) — always reachable, stays out of your dock.
- Drag & drop — drop files directly onto the tray icon to start an upload.
- Screenshot capture —
Cmd+Shift+S(macOS) orCtrl+Shift+S(Windows) takes a region screenshot, uploads it, and copies the link to your clipboard. - Upload history — see and copy links from recent uploads.
- Per-upload settings — password, expiry, and burn-after-reading on any file.
- Auto-updates — checks on launch and hourly. Installs quietly in the background.
Sign-in (optional)
Uploads work fully anonymously. Sign in to:
- Attach uploads to your account (visible in your dashboard)
- Use premium features like permanent files and larger storage quota
When you click "Sign in" in the app, your browser opens and hands a Sanctum token back to the app after authentication. Log out from the app's menu to revoke the token.

System requirements
- macOS 10.15 Catalina or later (Apple Silicon & Intel)
- Windows 10 1809 or later (x86_64)
Troubleshooting
- macOS won't open it: right-click the app → Open (only needed once for first-time unsigned builds). Signed releases don't require this.
- Screenshot shortcut conflicts: other apps may bind the same hotkey. Change your system screenshot shortcut in System Settings → Keyboard.
- Upload failing: check status.storage.to. The app sends error reports automatically — reach out if it's persistent.
