Yoink for Mac drastically improves and simplifies drag and drop on the Mac. Now in version 3.7, it does it even better – many improvements and bug fixes make sure of that.
What is Yoink?
Yoink is a temporary place for your file drags. Whether you want to collect images from a website, text snippets from a document, or move files around in Finder, Yoink offers a “shelf” you can place them in so you can move freely to the files’ actual destination. It can hold virtually anything you can drag and appears whenever you start to drag something. It’s also highly customizable to fit your needs. It also comes with a clipboard history, easily accessibly via widgets, or the “shelf” itself.
What’s New in Yoink v3.7?

- Yoink now automatically hides again if it was hidden before a drag
- The app is now more responsive and stable
- The “File in Trash” popover can now be muted
- Additionally, a Trash icon is now shown for files currently in the trash
- Improves support for drags from private Firefox windows
- Improves support for drags from Transmit
- Updated the UI
- Increased the number of copied items the clipboard history can hold
- Improves behavior when screen changes occur
- Fixes a bug where Yoink would hide even though a file was just dropped onto it
- Fixes potential issues with Quick Look, Continuity Camera and the Clipboard History widget
- Finally removed the experimental “resolve alias” option. While it did resolve alias files, the resulting path was no longer usable by Yoink on newer versions of macOS
- and much more!
