Product updates, fixes, and new capabilities in OurClone.

Current version v1.4.0

iCloud Drive and iCloud Photos, direct access to the Photos library on your Mac, and Run again for finished transfers.

Updated September 29, 2026

v1.4.0

Latest
  • New: iCloud Drive and iCloud Photos — connect an Apple Account (with two-factor verification) and browse and transfer iCloud Drive files like any other cloud. iCloud Photos is read-only: browse, download, and copy photos out to another cloud. Apple Accounts registered in mainland China aren't supported.
  • New: Photos on This Mac (macOS) — browse the Photos library on your Mac by year and month, and copy photos and videos out to any connected cloud, without signing in to an Apple Account. With iCloud Photos turned on for this Mac, that is your iCloud Photos library. You can also import files into an album or create a new album; nothing is ever deleted from your library.
  • New: Run again for transfers — start a finished or canceled Copy, Move, or Sync task again from the Task Center with the same source, destination, and mode. OurClone asks for confirmation first and warns you when Move or Sync would delete files.
  • New: Run now for scheduled jobs (Pro) — start a saved scheduled transfer or backup immediately from the Task Center instead of waiting for its next run time.
  • Improved: Folder pickers in Migrate, Backup, Mount, and the encrypted-remote dialog now show the files inside each folder (read-only, up to 100 per folder), so a folder with files no longer looks empty.
  • Improved: On the Migrate page, the Local Folder option now sits directly under the Source and Destination titles.
  • Improved: When Proton Drive asks for a CAPTCHA during sign-in, OurClone now explains that it is not a wrong password and walks you through verifying in your browser first, instead of showing a raw error.
  • Improved: Updated the bundled engines to rclone 1.75.1 and restic 0.19.1, and refreshed the app icon to the blue version that matches the website.
Updated July 21, 2026

v1.3.0

  • New: 47 more cloud storage providers — Google Photos, Zoho WorkDrive, Koofr, Filen, Internxt, Files.com, Internet Archive and more, plus a new Object Storage & Enterprise category (Azure Blob, Azure Files, Google Cloud Storage, OpenStack Swift, Oracle, HDFS and others) and 20 additional S3-compatible services with preset endpoints.
  • New: Search and category filters on the Add page — find any provider by name, backend type, or S3 service through a sticky search box with per-category counts.
  • Improved: Creating an encrypted remote (Pro) now uses a folder tree picker — browse the base cloud level by level or create a new folder in place. The drive root can't be selected, so the vault always lives in its own folder.
  • Improved: The Manage page now shows which cloud an encrypted remote wraps — the base drive's icon with a lock badge and an "Encrypted · drive:/path" hint.
  • Fixed: Opening a newly created encrypted remote no longer fails with a "directory not found" error — the vault folder is created automatically.
Updated July 14, 2026

v1.2.0

  • New: File manager in the Manage page — upload, download, rename, delete, and create folders directly on any connected cloud drive. Uploads and downloads run as Task Center tasks with live progress.
  • New: Encrypted remotes (Pro) — create an end-to-end encrypted vault inside any connected cloud using rclone crypt. Files are encrypted on your device before upload; only ciphertext is stored in the cloud.
  • New: Backup retention policies — keep the last N snapshots and N daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly snapshots, with optional automatic cleanup (restic forget --prune) after each successful backup.
  • New: System tray & background running — closing the window keeps OurClone running in the tray, so mounts and scheduled tasks continue; quitting from the tray safely unmounts everything first.
  • New: Start at login — optionally launch OurClone into the tray when you sign in, so scheduled tasks run on time.
  • New: Desktop notifications for completed or failed transfers and backups.
  • Improved: Backup repository passwords are now stored encrypted at rest, tied to this device, instead of in plain text.
Updated July 6, 2026

v1.1.1

  • Improved: Mounts now use full VFS caching by default, with read-ahead, chunked reads, longer directory cache time, and faster file fingerprints for smoother browsing.
  • Fixed: Unmounting now follows a graceful sequence before forcing shutdown, reducing stale NFS or FUSE mount points that could make Finder or file managers hang.
  • Fixed: OurClone now cleans up leftover mount points from a previous crash or forced quit when the app starts.
  • Improved: Mount readiness is confirmed through the system mount table instead of a fixed delay, and duplicate mounts on the same local folder are blocked.
  • Improved: Active mounts are unmounted during app window close so rclone can flush caches and detach cleanly.

  • New: Added scheduled backup tasks from the backup creation dialog, including saved repository password support for recurring runs.
  • New: Scheduled transfer tasks now appear in Task Center under Transfers, and scheduled backup tasks appear under Backups.
  • Improved: Scheduled task cards use a distinct visual style and create normal transfer or backup tasks when triggered, so progress is shown in the regular task flow.
