Rclone Beta Test – Windows & Mac Testers Wanted!

Hey Filen community! 👋

We know many of you already signed up for our beta program — and while most beta channels (Web, Desktop, Mobile) haven’t launched yet, we’re now actively looking for additional testers for a more niche part of Filen:
Rclone support — especially on Windows and macOS.

Linux testers are still welcome too, but we’ve got plenty for now.

If you're into command-line tools and want early access to our Rclone integration, this is your moment to jump in!

How to Join

1. Join our Discord – All beta feedback and updates happen there:
   👉 Filen Discord
2. Sign up via encrypted form – Include your Discord username:
   🔒 Sign up form

Already signed up before? If you already signed up for our beta program but haven’t heard from us, that’s completely normal — we haven’t launched the beta channels for Web, Desktop, or Mobile yet. Once those are ready, we’ll start reaching out and adding testers accordingly. Feel free to "sign up" again to note your interest in Expert Tools like Rclone.

What happens after I sign up?

The signup takes less than a minute: just your Discord username, your operating system, and a quick answer to one extra question. If you’re selected, you’ll be added to the beta channel once we start the next batch of invites, where you’ll find the beta release link and an issue template on how to report bugs effectively. Everything you need will be ready to go!

What Is Rclone and Why Is Filen Supporting It?

Rclone is a powerful open-source command-line tool that allows users to sync, move, and manage files across a wide range of cloud storage providers. It's especially popular among developers, sysadmins, and power users for its speed, flexibility, and support for automation and scripting.

By adding official Rclone support, Filen becomes even more versatile, allowing advanced users to integrate Filen into their existing workflows, automate backups, and handle large-scale file operations securely and efficiently. It’s a big step forward for those who want full control over their cloud storage experience.

Thanks for helping shape the future of Filen!
