@Dhanabhon Dhanabhon released this 29 Jun 17:38

FlowClone is a Tauri v2 desktop app for SSD migration on macOS — Image Migration (read a source SSD into a .flowimg) and Restore Image (write a .flowimg back onto a target SSD).

This release fixes the completed-screen numbers for Smart/Compress jobs.

Download (macOS, Apple Silicon)

FlowClone_0.3.5_aarch64.dmg below — Apple Silicon (arm64) only. The app is unsigned (no Apple Developer ID / notarization), so macOS Gatekeeper blocks it on first launch. To install:

  1. Open the .dmg and drag FlowClone to Applications.
  2. Remove the download quarantine flag — one line in Terminal:
    xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/FlowClone.app
    
    Without this, a browser-downloaded unsigned app shows "FlowClone.app is damaged and can't be opened" on Apple Silicon. It is not damaged — that's just Gatekeeper refusing an unsigned, quarantined app.
  3. Open FlowClone (right-click → Open the first time if prompted).
  4. Grant Full Disk Access: System Settings → Privacy & Security → Full Disk Access → enable FlowClone, then quit and reopen.

Intel Macs: build from source (pnpm install && pnpm sidecar && pnpm tauri build).

Fixed

  • The completed screen reported the image's full logical size, not the actual
    file size.
    After a Smart/Compress migration it showed the image as the
    source disk's capacity (e.g. 512 GB) instead of the much smaller .flowimg
    file (e.g. ~18 GB). It now shows the real on-disk file size; the source disk's
    capacity still appears under SOURCE.
  • "Total time" and "Average speed" read 0 on the completed screen for
    migrations and restores run with elevation (the privileged path that handles
    Smart/Compress and all restores). The completion event now reports the real
    elapsed time and average speed.
