This update gets you there faster, and shows you the time you've saved: • See the time you save: Settings › Achievements shows how much file-hunting time Locseek has saved you, and you can turn it into a time-saved card to share with friends. • More at home on your Mac: a native toolbar and sidebar, with a see-through floating glass sidebar on macOS 26. • Results keep up with fast typing: every keystroke starts a search right away. • Opens faster and uses less memory, no matter how long you've been using it. • Export and import your settings, and take them with you to a new Mac. • More reliable: if your disk gets so busy that the system misses changes, Locseek catches up on the spot, and cloud folders you haven't downloaded no longer show "Index Not Yet Complete". Deleted folders no longer make Locseek rescan from scratch every time it opens. Locseek will keep taking on the impossible and keep evolving, getting better with every update.
This update is all about getting you there faster: • Find it faster: start typing and your results are already there. • Find more: files scattered across drives and your NAS show up in one search. • Get it done faster: rename, move, compress or tag right where you found it, no folder digging. Any slip is easy to undo. • Narrow it down faster: one click in the sidebar leaves just the ones you want. • Can't remember the name? Describe it: what it is, how big, roughly when. • Quieter and smoother on every Mac, old or new. Some features require Locseek Pro.
More in Free Desktop, Documents and Downloads are no longer one-or-the-other — pick one, two, or all three. Each folder is authorized separately and shows its own status, so you always know what is searchable. More in Pro: from "several locations" to "any location" The entire startup disk, any folder, external drives, USB sticks, NAS, and network shares. Faster Folder-scoped searches, one- and two-letter searches, and combined queries under non-ASCII paths are all substantially faster. More accurate Settings changes apply to the current search immediately; newly created or moved folders no longer leave stale results behind; the status-bar number is always the count of items you can actually search. Quieter Lower footprint during first indexing and after settings changes; index consolidation runs only while you are idle, instead of periodically competing with the foreground. New query conditions hidden:, package:, and under: pin results to an exact directory level — available in the free version.
• Folder-scoped in: searches are much faster on large indexes. • Live indexing is more reliable when folders appear or move, preventing stale results. • Lower memory use and background work during first indexing and after settings changes.
