Advantages

So why is Rclone UI the best?

Quick Access

There is no solution that comes close to the speed and ease of use of Rclone UI.

Any command is always on click away, no custom interfaces to learn or terms to learn.

It's the rclone you know and love, but with a beautiful and intuitive UI not available anywhere else.

The toolbar is smart and aware of your remotes, for example you can type "copy myRemote: destRemote:/path/to/destination" and it will automatically fill in the source and destination paths for you when opening the Copy command.

Integrated Helper

Rclone UI comes with a built-in helper that will help you with your commands.

When hovering over an option/flag, a tooltip will appear with an explanation of what it does and when it makes sense to use it.

You can close those tabs you always keep open with the docs, they're already in the app.

Schedules

Rclone UI brings powerful scheduling capabilities right into your desktop.

With cron-based scheduling built-in, you can automate any rclone operation - from regular backups to synchronized transfers between remotes.

No need to manually edit crontab files or wrestle with Task Scheduler. Simply set up your schedule through the intuitive interface, and Rclone UI handles the rest.

You can schedule one-time or recurring tasks, set specific times and intervals, and even chain multiple operations together.

All scheduled tasks run in the background, and you can monitor their execution through the job logs, ensuring your data operations happen exactly when you need them to.

Transfers

All transfers are visible and can be monitored in real-time.

If there's an error, you'll see it immediately and without any changes done to it.

We don't magically transform the outputs of rclone, you'll see exactly what rclone is outputting.

Remote Control

Rclone UI can connect to and control remote rclone instances running on your servers, Docker containers, or homelab.

This means you can manage all your rclone operations from a single interface, whether they're running locally or on remote machines.

Simply connect to any rclone instance running with the remote control API enabled, and you'll have full control over its operations - start transfers, monitor progress, manage remotes, and view logs, all from your desktop.

No need to SSH into servers or manage multiple terminals. Your entire rclone infrastructure is accessible from one beautiful, unified interface.

Perfect for managing headless servers, Docker deployments, or distributed backup systems across your network.
