AnchorAnchor puts the folders on your NAS or server in your Mac’s menu bar. Add them once, then let Anchor connect automatically – or click one when you need it. For most setups, that’s it. Anchor takes care of the rest. No more hunting around. Everything’s right there.
01One place for your network folders
02Choose what connects – and what waits
03When a server returns, Anchor carries on
Add your NAS or server, configure your network folders and choose which should connect automatically. During setup, Anchor can look for servers on your network and help you choose from the shared folders they make available. Drag folders into your preferred order.
Basic Settings is reassuringly simple – set up in no time, great for many home networks.
Advanced Settings stays out of the way until you need it, then adds connection testing, individual folder controls and more flexible login details.
From first launch to fully configured in around a minute – and browsing your files in under two. Find your server, add its shared folders, choose Automounts and arrange them how you like.
Set up once, then forget about the network. Your folders are organised in one place, right where you need them.
Anchor groups shares by SMB server while keeping each one individually controllable. See what’s connected. Unmounted shares stay configured and ready when you are. If a server is asleep or offline, Anchor waits quietly and picks up when it returns.
Anchor began with our own SMB shares. This version is deliberately focused on SMB servers and folders, with a clean interface that keeps the important controls close at hand – and the networking clutter out of the way.
