What it does

Strongsync — ExpanDrive's APFS-native macOS sync built on the File Provider extension — is now standard in ExpanDrive. SharePoint, OneDrive, Box, Google Drive, Dropbox, and more on Apple Silicon, no kernel extension, no reboot.

The APFS-native macOS sync engine built on Apple's File Provider extension — SharePoint, OneDrive, Box, Google Drive, Dropbox on Apple Silicon, no kernel extension, no reboot. Every capability that shipped under the Strongsync name now lives inside ExpanDrive. Strongsync was the macOS-native ExpanDrive build optimized for Apple Silicon and the File Provider extension. We merged it back into the main ExpanDrive build so there's one app to install, one license, every feature available to every user. Built on Apple's File Provider extension — no kext to install, no reboot dance, native on Apple Silicon. APFS manages local caching automatically. SharePoint, OneDrive for Business, Office co-edit…from expandrive.com
