Quickly open your most important files with Blik.

Do you have lots of folders and files that you work with on your Mac? Do you juggle numerous projects? Do you collaborate with others by sharing folders via a service like Dropbox?

Blik allows you to focus on just the files and folders you need. Organize files in a system of collections that make sense to you – no matter whether they are originally stored in Dropbox, on your Desktop (naughty!), or some place hard to get ten folders deep.

Use the convenient Launcher Menu to quickly open files directly from the status bar.

Every project has its own Highlights list to place your essential files. It’s like a project’s own dedicated Finder sidebar.

Eigentlich gut, aber ...

… die Beschriftung in der Farbe Schwarz auf dunkelgrauem Hintergrund ist nur schwer lesbar. Oben in den Screenshots hier im App Store ist die Schriftfarbe Weiß, was viel angenehmer aussieht. Ich habe es nicht geschafft, eine andere Schriftfarbe als Schwarz einzustellen. Auch sind oben die verschiedenen Ordner farbig markiert, aber auch das konnte ich nicht einstellen. Ansonsten ein Super-Organisations-Tool, absolut Klasse!

Amazing Organizing Tool

Its always been possible to organize projects in the Finder, either by putting everything in one folder, or by putting aliases in one folder, so some reference works can be in several folders, and easy to access from multiple projects. Blik just makes it easier to organize projects in Blik too, and I can keep several folders easily available there. That saves a lot of finder navigation. It has one downside: it uses a lot of black text on gray backgrounds. It used to have animation, but I contacted the developer, and he added an option to substitute fade in/fade out.

Awesome app. Makes opening up custom work enviroments 1 click!

This app is really cool. It makes setting up custom work environments unbelievably easy! For almost all client projects I have to open multiple finder folders, a number of different apps (chrome, sublime text, mamp, codekit, sketch, + more) and when I start my day working on each of these projects it gets pretty annoying to have to open each folder and app one by one. Blik to the rescue! With Blik you literally just browse for the files, folders, and applications that you use in your work environment and add them to your "Collection" and optionally to your "Highlights" - then when you are ready to open them all, you just click "Open All Highlights" and BAM! Your whole work environment is ready to go. Pro tip: - pair this app with Display Maid and have it automatically restore all the window positions whereever you had them saved before. #TheFuture **Feature request** - Would love to the above tip maybe be added into the app - would be super handy, but not essential. - Would love to see a "Close All Highlights" feature so that I can swithc projects / environments ("Collections") quickly. - Ability to disabled the main floating window. I havent been able to figure out if this is how it is designed or if Im just missing the setting. 5 stars though for sure. Great app.

Has over time became indispensable

I’ve been using Blik since public beta and I must say that the latest update is really a game changer. The developer asked for specific feedback and he’s gone way over his head to implement some of the best suggestions. This is a must have app for organizing your projects without having to change your folder structure or have it all in one place. When you’re working with a designer, a coder, a SEO guy and the client, via Dropbox you can’t keep everything in one place. So this neat little tool just gathers all your info and you can choose to see what’s relevant for you. I’m using it everyday.
