Find any file before
you finish typing.

Everywhere quietly keeps track of every file on your Mac — documents, photos, downloads, mail attachments, and the backup drive you unplugged last week. Start typing and the answer is already on screen.

    Just start typing, from anywhere on this page — the box catches it, like the app does. It really searches 70,316 generated paths in your browser; the Mac app does the same over six million.

    The problem

    This is what Spotlight sees.

    Move your cursor. That little circle of light is Spotlight’s view of your Mac — and even inside it, the struck-through files are ones it has decided you shouldn’t want. Flip the switch and light the whole room.

    To catalogue six million files. You can start searching before it finishes.

    <10 ms

    The first keystroke, cold — a SIMD sweep across every core you have.

    <2 ms

    Every letter after that. Each one narrows what the last found, instead of starting again.

    Measured, not claimed

    Every number here
    came off a stopwatch.

    Measured on a Mac with six million files on it. They are checked automatically every time the app is built, so it cannot quietly get slower.

    Measured on an older Intel Mac, on purpose — it is the slowest case. On any Apple Silicon Mac every number here is better.

    It reads a list, not a database

    Every filename on your Mac is held end to end in one long list, with a small table of details beside it. There is no database to open, no index to rebuild before it can answer — just a list, already in memory, waiting.

    Every core, every keystroke

    Searching means sweeping that list, split across every processor core your Mac has. And each letter you type narrows what the last one found rather than starting over, so the second letter searches a few hundred files instead of six million.

    It stays small

    Folder names are never written down twice. The full location of a file is worked out the moment it appears on screen, and only for the handful of results you can actually see — which is how six million files fit in 308 MB.

    Syntax

    Ask for exactly what you want.

    Plain typing finds things by name, and that is all most searches ever need. When you want to be specific, a few short words narrow it down — and the app suggests them as you type, so there is nothing to memorise and no manual to read.

    Click any of these to try it in the search box above. ext: is the file type, size: how big, path: which folder, | means either, ! means not.

    Keyboard

    Your hands never leave home row.

    Everywhere has no window to manage and no Dock icon to lose. Press escape and you are back in whatever you were doing, as though nothing happened.

    ⌥ Space

    Open it from anywhere, over any app, even full screen

    Open the file

    ⌘ ↵

    ⌘ T

    Open Terminal at that folder

    ⌘ ↓

    esc

    Dismiss, and hand focus back

    These keycaps are wired to your real keyboard — press one and watch it. And ⌘↓ works in the live panel up top: it expands into the actual column view, sortable headers and all.

    Privacy

    No servers. No analytics.
    No account. No network.

    Your index is one file on your Mac and it never leaves it. Your licence is verified offline with a signature, so there is no activation server to breach — because there is no activation server. The app works with the Wi-Fi off, forever.

    this page makes zero third-party requests, for the same reason

    Questions

    The ones worth asking.

    Is this just Everything, for Mac?

    That is exactly the intent. If you moved from Windows and miss Everything, this is the same idea: catalogue the whole disk once, then answer instantly. It is a native Mac app written from scratch — not a port, and not Spotlight with a new coat of paint.

    Why isn’t it on the Mac App Store?

    Apple requires App Store apps to be walled off from the rest of your Mac. An app that cannot look at your files cannot find them. That is the whole reason — so Everywhere is a direct download instead, signed and checked by Apple the same way.

    Why does it want Full Disk Access?

    Same reason: to find everything, it has to be allowed to see everything. If you say no, Everywhere still works on what it can reach and tells you plainly which folders it is missing. It will never hand you half an answer and let you think it was the whole one.

    Will it slow my Mac down?

    Setting up takes about half a minute the first time, and you can search before it finishes. After that it simply notices changes as they happen rather than looking again, which costs almost nothing. Anything slower waits until your Mac is idle.

    Does it work on Apple Silicon?

    Yes — it runs natively on Apple Silicon and Intel alike. Every number on this page was measured on an older Intel Mac, so a modern one is comfortably faster.

    What if I don’t like it?

    Thirty days, one email, full refund, no questions and no exit survey. Replacing your Mac is not a support ticket either — deactivate the old machine yourself from Settings.
