Dropshelf
A drag and drop helper app for macOS. ![Freeware][Freeware Icon]
Dropshelf provides a visual interface for managing drag‑and‑drop actions on macOS. It creates movable “shelves” that can be placed at any screen edge, including between monitors, allowing users to drop files, images, or other items onto a persistent area instead of the desktop or Finder. The app supports both Apple Silicon and Intel processors and adapts its appearance to macOS light and dark modes.
The utility is aimed at macOS users who frequently organize files via drag‑and‑drop and want a convenient, always‑available drop target. It offers a free beta version that is fully functional without time or trial restrictions, and it runs on macOS 10.15.7 or later. The interface is currently English‑only.
Key updates include a universal binary, improved multi‑monitor handling, refined visual design, and more reliable handling of items dragged from Photos and other applications. The developer provides support through a contact email and plans to release a future update to the Mac App Store.
