About FilePipe
FilePipe is a powerful file management tool that turns your chaotic Download and other messy folders into a perfectly organized library — automatically. Ever wanted all your videos in one folder, regardless of which app downloaded them? Or wished your Downloads folder would just sort itself into Documents, Music, Images, and everything else? That's exactly what FilePipe does. Set a rule, pick a schedule, and let the pipes do the work. Move or copy any media to its rightful place. ━━ RULES ━━ Use templates to start fast, or build your own. Create a rule by choosing source folders, file extensions, and a destination.
