AppPorts
A macOS utility to seamlessly migrate applications to external storage and reclaim local disk space.
What is AppPorts?
AppPorts is a macOS utility designed to help users free up valuable local disk space. It works by migrating large applications to external storage drives (like SSDs or NAS) while keeping a functional application portal in the original location, so the apps can still be launched normally from the system.
Mac users with limited internal storage who need to manage large applications like creative suites (Logic Pro, Xcode), games, or other bulky software.
Developers choose AppPorts for its unique 'Contents Linking' technology, which maintains a native macOS experience without shortcut arrows on icons and ensures compatibility with system features like Launchpad and the App Menu, unlike traditional symlink methods.
