Mac Backup

Deleted a file on your Mac? Sync may delete it from the cloud too

CloudChute keeps a separate backup in your own Google Drive, Dropbox, or Box — so you can restore files sync can't bring back.

Set it up once, let it run in the background, and recover files or older versions without the hassle.

Already using Google Drive, Dropbox or Box? Here's how CloudChute protects your files

Google Drive, Dropbox, and Box are excellent for storage and sharing, but they are not the same as backup. If a file is deleted, changed, or corrupted on your Mac, CloudChute keeps a separate backup copy designed for recovery.

Back up to your own Google Drive, Dropbox or Box account.
Keep a backup copy, so deleted or changed files on your Mac do not remove your backup.
Restore files or older versions whenever you need them.
Add optional AES-256 encryption before upload.

Built natively for macOS in Swift Backup that fits the way you already work

CloudChute adds an off-site backup layer to the cloud storage you already use. It runs quietly in the background, works alongside Time Machine, and gives you straightforward restore options when you need them.
