Mac file shelf: Tray, Pockets and AirDrop

Mac file shelf with NotchNook Pro

Use NotchNook Pro as a Mac file shelf: gather documents in Tray, hold items in Pockets and send files with AirDrop. Keep your materials ready while moving between folders and apps. [2]

Gather your project files in Tray. Use a Pocket to hold an item while moving between folders, then drop it into its destination when the window is ready. [2]

Stage the files in Tray

Drag files to the top of the screen to keep them in Tray, then drag them from there to the application or destination that needs them. The Drop Area also offers keeping files, AirDrop and format conversion. [2]

For a presentation, gather the deck and the images you expect to use together. Check the destination after the transfer, so the handoff includes the material you intended. Keep the originals in their normal location until your work is complete.

Use a Pocket while changing destinations

While dragging files, shake the pointer to open a Pocket that holds them. Pro supports multiple Pockets, which lets you keep different transfers separate. [2]

For example, use one Pocket for the documents you are preparing for a meeting and another for images going into a draft. The useful distinction is the destination or next action, so you can continue without mixing the groups.

Choose the destination and the sharing action

When the file should go to a nearby device, use the AirDrop option in the file workflow and choose the intended recipient. Check that the receiving device has the transfer before treating the handoff as finished. [2]

For a conversion, choose the available option for the file type and open the resulting file. Then send it to its destination and confirm receipt.

Continue the work after the transfer

Recover accompanying text from clipboard history, check the meeting in Calendar and open the presentation script in Prompter. Keep those materials together while preparing the handoff. [2]

Download the 48-hour trial on lo.cafe, without a card. Pro requires Apple silicon and macOS 14.6 or later. Gather a small delivery, move it to its real destination and check the received files before deciding how it fits your routine. [1]
