"I was terrified of losing years of family photos due to a sync error or iCloud account issue. Parachute gave me the 'exit strategy' I needed. It is simple, powerful, and most importantly, it is a one-time purchase that puts me back in control of my own data. Seeing my library neatly organized on my external drive is a huge relief."

David R., Tech-Savvy Parent

"As a prosumer with a massive library of RAW files and 4K videos, I needed more than just a sync service. Parachute handles my NAS and S3 backups flawlessly while preserving every bit of metadata. No subscriptions, no telemetry, and no proprietary formats—just my files exactly where I want them. This is the gold standard for iOS utilities."
