Is my data safe with FolioSort?

Absolutely. FolioSort verifies every transfer with checksums (XXHash64 or SHA-256), offers full undo for up to 50 operations, and processes everything locally on your Mac. Your files never leave your computer.

Does FolioSort work with RAW files?

Yes, with the Pro license. FolioSort supports RAW formats from Canon (CR2, CR3), Nikon (NEF), Sony (ARW), Fujifilm (RAF), Panasonic (RW2), Olympus (ORF), Pentax (PEF), Samsung (SRW), and more, plus cinema RAW from Blackmagic (BRAW), RED (R3D), and ARRI (ARI/ARR).

Can I use FolioSort with my NAS?

Yes, with Pro. FolioSort works with SMB and AFP network shares (Synology, QNAP, etc.) and iCloud Drive. It includes auto-download for cloud-only files, resilient retry logic with exponential backoff, and automatic disconnect handling.

What if something goes wrong during organization?

Every operation can be undone with one click. FolioSort keeps a persistent history of up to 50 batch operations across sessions, and automatically cleans up empty directories when reverting.

Does FolioSort work on Intel Macs?

Yes. FolioSort runs on macOS 14 (Sonoma) or later, on both Apple Silicon (M1, M2, M3, M4) and Intel Macs.

What video formats does FolioSort support?

MOV, MP4, AVI, MKV, M4V, 3GP, WMV, FLV, WebM, MTS, M2TS, TS, MPG, MPEG, and VOB. Pro adds cinema RAW formats: BRAW (Blackmagic), R3D (RED), ARI/ARR (ARRI), and CRM (Canon Cinema).

Can I try FolioSort before buying Pro?

Yes. The Free tier is fully functional — organize up to 100 files per operation, use 3 folder presets and 3 rename presets, with checksum verification and undo. Upgrade to Pro when you need more.

What is FolioSort's refund policy?

You can request a full refund within 14 days of purchase, as long as the license key has not been activated. Refunds are processed within 5 to 10 business days.

Is FolioSort a subscription?

No. FolioSort Pro is a one-time purchase with a lifetime license. Pay once, use forever. No recurring fees, no subscription.

Does FolioSort send my photos to the cloud?

No. Your files never leave your computer. Every photo, video, and file is processed 100% locally on your Mac. We use privacy-first telemetry (Aptabase) to improve the app without collecting personal data. Reverse geocoding uses Apple's built-in CLGeocoder.
