argos Posted November 26, 2015 Report Share Posted November 26, 2015 Hello, Often I'm syncing multiple folders and I have a hard time finding out which ones are done and sync time left. For instance, I have to open the UI each time to see transfer status and rate. Dropbox makes it simple with a tooltip when you mouse over the icon : How tremendously useful that would be. For finding out what folders are done syncing, that I'm not sure about. Dropbox has Finder integration with status icons : That might not work as well though if it were added for folders, and if there were a way to add an icon to the Finder toolbar, to show folder status, that would save quite a bit of work trying to figure out what's done.

tookaway Posted November 27, 2015 Report Share Posted November 27, 2015 Yes, I'd also like to see this feature in Windows OS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iswrong Posted November 27, 2015 Report Share Posted November 27, 2015 With regards to the status in the system tray: due to the distributed nature of BTSync and block-level syncing, it could potentially be syncing a large number of files simultaneously. (The same thing might apply to Dropbox, since it has LAN syncing, I guess.) As for Sync status in the finder, that indeed sounds like a great feature!
