What is Parachute Backup?

Set-and-forget backup for iCloud Photos & iCloud Drive. Automatically backup your photos/videos and files to your storage or other cloud. Peace of mind and full control.

Keep Your iCloud Data. Forever.

Parachute is a set-and-forget backup companion for iCloud Photos and iCloud Drive. It automatically syncs your memories—photos, videos, and documents—to your own storage (or other cloud provider), giving you peace of mind and full control.

Your Data, Your Way

  • Back up your entire iCloud Photos and iCloud Drive
  • Manual or scheduled runs, full or smart incremental backups
  • Works with external drives, NAS, or other clouds (like Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, etc.) – your storage, your rules
  • Avoid filling up your Mac's hard drive with smart offloading

How It Works

Parachute ensures iCloud offloads backed-up files and photos, while keeping them available on-demand. You stay in control without bloating your disk space during backups.

Why It Matters

Decades of photos. Once-in-a-lifetime documents. All in the cloud… until they’re not. Parachute ensures your digital life is safe from deletion, sync errors, or service failures—easy and seamlessly.

No Subscriptions. No Lock-In.

One-time setup. One-time purchase. Your files, backed up where and how you want.
