BackPair is a desktop application designed to simplify and accelerate the process of backing up folders to internal or external devices. It allows users to create custom backup profiles, defining pairs of source and destination folders. With profiles set up, backing up multiple folders is as easy as selecting a profile and clicking a single button.
Whether you need to regularly back up important documents, media files, or project directories, BackPair streamlines the process, saving you time and effort compared to manual copying.
- Profile Management: Create, name, and manage multiple backup profiles.
- Folder Pairing: Define specific source ("From") and destination ("To") folder pairs within each profile.
- One-Click Backup: Easily initiate the backup process for an entire profile with a single click.
- Backup Logs: View detailed logs of the backup process, including progress and status for each file.
- Intuitive User Interface: A clean and modern interface built with React.js and shadcn UI.
- Cross-Platform: Built with Tauri, providing a native experience on major operating systems.
You can download the latest version for your platform from the Releases page.
