Mac productivity without the file hunt
These guides explain the workflows Peeker supports and the macOS features it works beside. Every capability described here is available in the current Peeker app; the pages do not promise automation, cloud sync, or system access that Peeker does not provide.
A productive Mac file workflow keeps the next file close, lets you verify it before opening another app, and makes common actions reversible. Peeker puts recent files, chosen folders, Clipboard history, Shelf, search, and native previews in one local panel.
Retrieve, verify, and hand off local work.
Retrieve
Use Recents, saved folders, Shelf, or optional Clipboard history.
Verify
Filter the current view and preview supported files with Space.
Hand off
Open, copy, drag, share, reveal, pin, Shelf, or Trash a selection.
