SpectArk is a native macOS incremental backup app — realtime, folder-scoped, versioned backup of the files you actually care about (your source code and projects), not a whole-system clone.

Highlights

  • Realtime backup — point it at a folder and it snapshots the moment a file changes (no schedule, no gap). Scheduled intervals are also available.
  • Versioned snapshots (Time Machine style), with unchanged data shared via APFS clones / hardlinks.
  • Any source → any destination — local disk or NAS; no dedicated backup drive required.
  • Optional encryption — content-defined chunking + dedup, AES-256-GCM with argon2id-derived keys, and a one-time recovery key. Off by default (snapshots stay browsable plaintext).
  • Dashboard window + menu-bar dropdown with live throughput and free space.

Install

Download SpectArk-1.0.0.dmg, open it, and drag SpectArk to Applications. Signed with a Developer ID and notarized by Apple.

Universal binary (Apple Silicon + Intel). Requires macOS 14 or later.
