FileBo • Menu Bar Recent Files

FileBo gives you a simple pop-up window with the files and folders you’ve recently used.

Changed, saved, or downloaded. Think of it as a smart “where did I put that?” drawer for your Mac — except it fills itself automatically.

Finder is good at a lot of things. Remembering exactly where that one file went, five minutes after you saved or downloaded it, is not always one of them. FileBo keeps recent files, folders, apps, and connected drives one click away — so when macOS turns into a small treasure hunt, you can get back to the thing you were actually doing.

WHO FILEBO IS FOR

For anyone who works with files all day and occasionally loses track of them. Which is to say: almost everyone.

Writers, designers, developers, students, office workers, people with heroic Downloads folders — FileBo is for the small everyday moments when you know the file exists, but Finder insists on making you prove it.

WHAT MAKES FILEBO DIFFERENT

– Recent files without leaving your flow
Open FileBo from anywhere — even inside full-screen apps — and get back to the document, download, image, archive, folder, or project you just touched, without digging through Finder windows.

– More useful than Finder’s Recents
Finder’s Recents view only shows part of the picture. FileBo is built specifically for this job: surfacing what you’ve actually been working with, right when you need it.

– You decide what tracks
Add files or folders to the ignore list, exclude things you never want to see, or choose whether FileBo should watch specific files at all. The point is to show what’s useful — not everything just because it exists.

– Apps, disks, and other Mac activity
can also show useful system events, like recently installed apps or external drives that were mounted. Small things, yes. But exactly the sort of small things you often need five minutes later.

– Built on macOS Spotlight
uses the same Spotlight index your Mac already keeps up to date, so it feels like a native part of the system rather than another app building its own private database. Fast, local, and very Mac-like — which is exactly what you want for something that knows about your files.

– Built for normal Mac use
There is no filing ritual to learn and no system you have to maintain. Keep using your Mac the way you already do; quietly keeps track of recent activity and gives you a quick way back when you need it.
