Live Usage

Know what your server's up to. Every app's appetite, at a glance.

Files, done right.

A home for everything. Photos, documents and projects live on hardware you own, in a file manager that previews images, video, PDFs and text, and takes files dragged in from your desktop.

Right in Finder and File Explorer. Share any folder over your network and your Umbrel shows up like any other drive on your Mac or PC. Open, edit and save files right where they are.

Find it in a keystroke. Press ⌘K anywhere in umbrelOS and start typing. Files, folders, apps and settings come up as you type.

Photos, right at home.

From your phone to your Umbrel. Take a photo and it shows up in Photos on your Umbrel on its own, with the date and place it was taken.

Find any shot. Search by file name or camera, then narrow by month, album or source. Photos shows just the shots that match.

Albums for the moments that matter. Gather a trip or a year in one place, choose its cover and rename it any time. Live Photos, panoramas and screenshots get collections of their own.

Every place you’ve been. Photos with a location land on a map of the world, worked out on your Umbrel, so it works even offline.

Backed up in the background. The Umbrel app on your phone keeps uploading new photos and videos at home or away, even when it’s closed. Edits are backed up again.

Your whole Umbrel, backed up.

Back up anywhere. Every hour, encrypted, to a USB drive, a NAS or another Umbrel. umbrelOS keeps hourly backups for a day, daily for a week, weekly for a month and monthly for a year.

Rewind. Scroll back through your backups and see any folder as it was on that day. Bring back one file or a whole folder without restoring everything.

Full restore. New machine, same Umbrel. Restore from a backup during setup, and your apps, files and settings come back in minutes.

Storage for SSDs and hard drives alike.

Add a drive, get the space. Add another SSD and FailSafe grows onto it while you keep working, with its progress always in view. When it finishes, the new space is ready to use.

Hard drives, in pairs. With FailSafe on, hard drives pair up as mirrors. If one fails, its twin still has every file, and swapping in a new drive rebuilds the pair.

SSD acceleration. Add an SSD to a hard drive setup and umbrelOS uses it to speed everything up, so apps open faster and heavy tasks finish sooner. Even a small one helps.

A checkup for every drive. See each SSD’s health, temperature and estimated life remaining, with its warning and critical temperatures right beside them.

Even more, built in.

Apps like Ollama and Jellyfin find your NVIDIA, AMD or Intel graphics and use it automatically.

The little things aren't little.

Most home cloud software stops at "it works." umbrelOS keeps going, until every click, keystroke, and right-click feels considered.

Edit any text file with the built-in editor.

Private by design.

Your photos, files and apps live on a device in your home, not on someone else's servers. Here's how umbrelOS keeps it that way.

Built in the open.

umbrelOS source code is available publicly on GitHub.

Star on GitHub12.4K

Local by default.

Your Umbrel lives on your network and answers only to you. There's no company website to sign into just to reach your own server. Open umbrel.local and you're in.

Every app in its own sandbox.

Apps run in isolated containers, each with its own data. One app can touch another's files only when you grant it permission.

An app store anyone can audit.

Every app in the Umbrel App Store is packaged in the open and reviewed before it ships, with source code a click away. Built something worth self-hosting? Put it on thousands of Umbrels.
