FOR THE CURIOUS, RIGHT NOW
Meet the development build.
DropBridge starts with Safari on Mac, with Chrome planned next. There’s no public extension download yet. If you have the project checkout, you can try it locally.
- Load it in Safari
Enable developer features, choose Add Temporary Extension, and select the project’s
safarifolder. - Enable both websites
Open the extension on your source and destination tabs. Approve access to each website and reload both tabs.
- Connect Google Drive
For Drive files, start the local connection service and use Connect Google Drive in the extension. See the project’s Google Drive setup guide for the callback configuration.
- Try your transfer
Use a small file first. Confirm the destination accepted the file and that its contents are correct.
Current limits: 10 files per transfer, 10 MiB per file, 30 MiB total. Destination limits still apply. Google sign-in and Drive → OneDrive uploads need live verification.
A FEW GOOD QUESTIONS
Before you make the move.
Which browsers will DropBridge support?
Safari on Mac is the current development target. Chrome support is planned for a future release.
Does this work with every website?
Not yet. Source retrieval and upload acceptance vary by website. Embedded frames and upload areas requiring trusted native events are outside the current implementation.
Do I need to connect Google Drive?
Yes, for the authorized Drive download flow. Google asks you to approve read access to your Drive files. This connection is separate from a future DropBridge subscription. Use the connected account in your source tab.
Does DropBridge move or delete my original file?
The intended workflow copies file contents to the destination’s uploader. It does not delete the source file.
Where do my files go?
The current transfer code holds file bytes in memory while handing them to the destination. The local Google connection service handles authorization tokens; file contents are downloaded by the extension. The destination handles any resulting upload.
Can I subscribe now?
No. The planned price is $1 USD per month with a three-day trial. Payments, subscription accounts, and trial activation are not implemented.
What happens when I disconnect Google Drive?
DropBridge removes its local connection and attempts to revoke Google access. You can also remove DropBridge from your Google account’s third-party connections.
