Description
Ever copied a folder to a USB drive, a new phone, or a cloud backup — and later wondered whether every single file made it across safely? sha256sum gives you a definitive answer.
The app scans your folders and creates a "fingerprint" for every file — a short code that changes the moment even one byte is different. You can compare two folders side by side (a backup and the original, for example) and the app will tell you exactly which files are only on one side, and which ones differ.
No accounts, no cloud, no tracking. Everything stays on your device and the storage you pick.
Hash tab Pick a source folder and an output file. Tap "Compute hashes". The app walks the entire folder tree and writes one fingerprint line per file in the standard `sha256sum` format — compatible with Linux, macOS, and Windows tools.
Compare tab Pick two folders, two existing `.sha256` manifest files, or mix and match. Differences appear live in a tree view as the scan runs. Green means only on the left, orange means only on the right, red means the file exists on both sides but the content differs.
