Step by step
From backing up
to restoring your files.
Choose an external volume, a backup location and a target format. Every step has its place, with progress visible in the app.

Back up
Files go into a separate folder outside the target device. The backup is checked before formatting.
- 02
Format
Choose the filesystem and partition scheme. Operations that erase data require confirmation.
- 03
Restore

Questions & answers
Before
you begin.
Which operating system does VulpShift support?
The initial platform is macOS 12 or later. Windows and Linux versions are planned.
Can I download the app yet?
The app will soon be available on the Mac App Store.
How does backup, format and restore work?
The Backup → Format → Restore workflow connects those steps. Formatting erases the drive — you first need a verified backup and enough space on another disk.
Does the app show internal disks?
Yes. Enable internal devices in Settings to see your computer’s disks and their volumes alongside external devices. System volumes are protected from formatting.
Does the app have a light mode?
Yes. In the app settings, choose a light or dark theme, or follow your system appearance. Explore light mode in the app preview above.
Which languages does the app support?
English, Polish and German. You can change the language in the app settings.
Can I write any ISO file to USB?
No. Direct writing supports uncompressed IMG and USB-compatible hybrid ISO images. Windows UEFI installation media uses a separate preparation workflow. Ordinary optical ISOs and DMG files are not supported.
