RealTimeSync is a free, open-source file monitoring utility that comes bundled with FreeFileSync. It continuously watches designated directories for changes and automatically executes custom command-line actions whenever files are modified or when monitored drives become available (such as USB drives being inserted). It is commonly used to trigger automatic synchronization jobs, backups, or other file management tasks in response to real-time file system events. RealTimeSync is particularly useful for unattended or continuous backup workflows where immediate synchronization is required without manual intervention.
Suggested Replacements
1 suggestionRealTimeSync is part of the FreeFileSync project, which is actively maintained open-source software. Based on the GitHub repository and release archives, FreeFileSync continues to receive updates. However, the search results do not clearly indicate whether a native Apple Silicon build is currently available. Contact the FreeFileSync team or check the official download page at freefilesync.org to confirm the architecture of the latest build for macOS. If no native version exists yet, the project appears active enough that one may be forthcoming — alternatively, consider native macOS automation tools such as Automator, Folder Actions, or third-party utilities like Hazel for real-time file monitoring and task triggering on Apple Silicon Macs.
