Homy:一款替代 macOS Finder 的文件管理应用

Show HN: The Finder alternative you've been looking for

AI 导读

Homy 是一款 macOS 文件管理应用,以缩略图浏览和自然语言搜索替代 Finder 的文件名列表,支持按类型、日期、大小和来源筛选文件。它还能通过 Apple Vision 框架搜索截图中的文字、按下载来源归类文件、用 SHA-256 指纹查找重复文件并清理旧安装包等垃圾文件。

Your Mac’s files, finally beautiful.

Finder shows you a list of filenames. Homy shows you your stuff. Big, clear thumbnails for everything, and a search that understands plain English.

Images, videos, music, documents, archives and apps. Each one gets its own shelf, so you can see what you have at a glance.

Find anything. Just ask.

No folders to dig through and no syntax to learn. Homy shows you exactly how it understood you.

Built for the way you actually lose files.

Five things Finder can’t do, each one a shortcut away.

1Natural-language search

Type it the way you’d say it.

Homy turns “pdfs from last week” into filters you can see: little chips for type, date, size and source. No folders to remember, no syntax to learn.

  • Understands type, date, size and where a file came from
  • Shows how it read your query, so there are no surprises
  • Matches filenames, tags and the text inside files

Search

2Text in images

Search the words inside your screenshots.

Homy reads the text in your screenshots and recent photos right on your Mac, using Apple’s Vision framework. That Wi-Fi password, the tracking number, the quote you saw once: just search for it.

  • Copy all the text from one or several images and PDFs
  • Hover any image for a Copy Text button
  • Open a preview and turn on Select Text to grab just the words you need

Copy Text

AMBITION WITHOUT
ACTION BECOMES
ANXIETY.

3Downloaded From

Remember where it came from.

Every download, grouped by where you got it: Gmail, Google Drive, ChatGPT, Canva, X, Slack, WhatsApp, GitHub, browser extensions or any website.

  • A “From” filter appears in any list that has downloads
  • The Inspector shows each file’s source
  • Find that invoice by remembering the email, not the filename

4Duplicates

One copy is plenty.

Homy finds identical files by their content (SHA-256 fingerprints) and look-alike photos too: bursts, edits and HEIC/JPEG pairs, using Vision feature prints.

  • See exactly how much you’ll free up
  • Homy picks a copy to keep. Click another to change it
  • The rest go to the Trash. iCloud-only files are skipped, so nothing gets downloaded

Duplicates

5Clean Up

Gigabytes back, safely.

Smart cards on the Home screen point out old installers, forgotten downloads, old screenshots, big old videos and apps you don’t use anymore.

  • Each card opens a review page with Trash All or Trash Selected
  • Old .dmg and .pkg installers you already installed
  • Files go to the Trash, never deleted outright

Clean Up

Duplicates + Clean Up

And everything else.

The little things that make it feel like home.

  • Home dashboard

    Totals for every category, plus shelves of your recent photos, videos, music and documents.

  • Library sidebar

    Recents, Images, Videos, Music, Documents, Archives, Apps, Smart Folders for Large Files and Screenshots, plus pinned folders.

  • Grid or list

    Switch views, drag the thumbnail size slider, and sort by name, date, size or kind.

  • Quick preview

    Double-click or press Space. Use ← and → to step through files, Esc to close.

  • Music player

    Double-click a song and it plays right in the toolbar. ⌘← and ⌘→ to skip.

  • Inspector

    A live preview plus the details: dimensions, duration, camera and download source.

  • Right-click everything

    Quick Look, Open, Show in Finder, Pin to Sidebar, Copy, Copy Path, Move to Trash.

  • Drag and drop

    Drag any file out of Homy and into Mail, Slack, Figma or wherever it needs to go.

  • Automatic updates

    New versions download in the background and install when you quit. Nothing to babysit.

Your files stay on your Mac.

Homy looks at your files so you don’t have to. It never sends them anywhere.

  • Nothing is ever deleted outright

    Clean Up and Duplicates move files to the Trash. Changed your mind? Put them back.

  • iCloud stays in iCloud

    Files that only live in the cloud are skipped during scans, so nothing gets downloaded.

  • 100% native

    Built in SwiftUI. Small and fast, about a 5 MB download.

  • Signed and notarized

    Signed and notarized by Apple, so macOS knows it’s safe to open.

  • Light and dark

    Follows your Mac’s appearance, and looks good either way.

  • macOS 14 Sonoma or later

    Runs natively on Apple silicon and Intel Macs.

Simple, honest pricing.
