About File Shelf

Drop files on the Korinotch notch at the top of your screen, open another Finder window, then drag items back out to their destination.

Overview

Dragging across distant Finder windows is awkward on a laptop. File Shelf lets you drop files on the Korinotch notch, open another folder, then drag items back out—group mode keeps stacks together; separate mode holds individual files.

Key features

Notch drop zone

Drop files on the MacBook notch shelf—the same Korinotch surface used across the mini app ecosystem.

Group or separate stacks

Group mode keeps related drops together; separate mode lines up individual files for granular moves.

Drag back to Finder

Open a destination window, then drag from the shelf to the target folder—like a temporary holding dock.
