Yoink

Yoink is a lightweight productivity app for macOS that acts as a temporary holding space for anything you drag on your screen. Instead of juggling multiple Finder windows or struggling with precise drag-and-drop actions, Yoink gives you a simple, always-available shelf where you can drop files, folders, text snippets, images, and screenshots — then move them exactly where you need, when you’re ready. Yoink automatically appears when you start dragging an item and stays out of the way when you don’t need it. It supports drag-and-drop from Finder, browsers, apps, emails, and even text selections. You can also copy items to Yoink and paste them later, making it ideal for multitasking, file organization, content creation, and everyday macOS workflows. Key highlights: Temporary shelf for files, text, images, and screenshots Works seamlessly with Finder and all major macOS apps Reduces drag-and-drop friction and improves workflow speed Minimal UI, lightweight, and highly reliable Perfect for power users, designers, writers, and developers If you frequently move content between apps or folders on macOS, Yoink helps you work faster with less effort.
