Download Bloom for macOS

Finder works until you need to retrace a mistake. Bloom keeps a record of every move, copy, and rename so you can undo operations without hunting through folders.

Actions that stick with you

Right-click a folder to launch Terminal at that exact path. Need a quick text file or a placeholder image? Create new file types without leaving the file list. Tag management sits close by, so you can label batches of work without opening extra panels. When you want to jump to a system location, ⌘⇧⏎ drops you there immediately.

Portal mode and workspace control

Portal mode shrinks Bloom to a compact, sidebar-free window you can pin above other apps or dock to a screen edge. It stays visible while you drag items across spaces. Pair that with workspace customisation—like your preferred sorting, columns, and tag filters—and you build a file view that matches how you organise, not the other way around. The treemap folder scanner shows disk usage at a glance, so a bloated cache doesn't sneak up on you.

A typical session in ten minutes

You open Bloom to a workspace you set up last week—Downloads on the left, a client folder in iCloud Drive on the right, tags visible along the bottom. You tap ⌘F inside the client folder and type invoice. Results appear before you finish the word. You select three scattered PDFs, right-click, and choose Organise by Date. Bloom moves them into year-month subfolders and records the action. One click on the undo bar at the bottom of the window, and everything snaps back. You try a different grouping instead.

Next you grab a zip archive from a vendor. Without extracting it, you press Space to preview the contents—a few PNGs and a readme. You drag the images straight out of the preview into your project folder. Bloom copies only what you dragged, not the whole archive. You notice a naming mess: final_v2_revised.png. You highlight six files, tap ⌘R to open the renamer, and drop in a regex that strips suffixes and adds a sequential number. Clean filenames in seconds.

Search remembers your last five queries per folder

Column widths adjust themselves as you browse—no double-clicking dividers. The search field remembers your last five queries per folder, so switching between a Bloom torrent search in Downloads and a Bloom KSHMR Mac torrent query in a media drive doesn't require retyping. In Portal mode, the compact window stays pinned while you drag files into a Slack message or a Keynote slide; it never ducks behind your active app unless you tell it to.

Right-click any folder and pick Launch Terminal. The path is already set. If you regularly convert screenshots to JPEG for email, add that task to the scheduler—Bloom runs it at the interval you pick, watches a folder, and logs each conversion. The treemap scanner highlights folders by block size, not just file count, so a shallow folder with two large video files stands out as clearly as a deep nest of logs.

Workflow: cleaning a sample pack

A producer friend sends you a 2 GB sample pack. You mount the drive, open it in Bloom, and hit the treemap view. A single folder labelled unused stems eats 40% of the space—you right-click and move it to Trash. The remaining folders hold WAVs with inconsistent tags and names like kick_01_FINAL.wav and kick_01_FINAL_v2.wav.

You search _FINAL across the pack, select all 300 results, and open the batch renamer. A quick regex removes every _FINAL suffix and adds a two-digit counter. Next you select the entire pack and apply tags: drums, processed, client-mix. Bloom tags them in the background while you keep browsing. You drag the cleaned pack into your iCloud Drive workspace folder. The scheduler pops up—you set a rule to convert any WAV over 48 kHz to 48 kHz next time the Mac is idle. You close Bloom. The undo log holds every step, ready if the client changes their mind.
