RsyncOSX is a macOS GUI application for managing and executing rsync backup and synchronization tasks. The repository is archived and read-only; users on macOS Sonoma and later should use its successor, RsyncUI.

Use cases

  • back up files to a NAS with rsync from a Mac
  • schedule and run rsync tasks without the command line
  • synchronize folders between a Mac and a remote server
  • manage multiple rsync backup profiles in a GUI
  • restore files from an rsync backup

When to choose

  • you are on macOS Big Sur or later and want a free GUI for rsync
  • you prefer installing via Homebrew cask
  • you need a simple signed and notarized rsync frontend

When to avoid

  • you are on macOS Sonoma or later - use RsyncUI instead
  • you need active maintenance, bug fixes, or support
  • you want a cross-platform backup tool
  • you need features beyond rsync such as cloud backups or encryption
