Remount reconnects SMB and NFS network shares automatically when they disconnect, and gives direct access to the SMB settings macOS buries in a config file.
When your Mac sleeps, changes networks, or the server reboots, your mounted shares silently disappear. Finder's "Connect to Server" is manual and one-shot. Login items mount at startup but won't reconnect after an interruption. And the SMB settings that matter most for performance (packet signing, protocol version, multichannel) are buried in a config file most users don't know exists.
In an edit suite or post facility, a dropped mount means stopped work, broken media links, and someone standing up to go fix it.
All your shares at a glance: mount status, uptime, and automount state from the menu bar.
Advanced SMB settings that macOS hides: signing, multichannel, protocol version, and direct nsmb.conf editing.
Monitors your shares and reconnects them silently on login, on wake, or whenever the network comes back. Runs quietly in the menu bar with optional start-at-login.
Expose the SMB options macOS hides: signing, protocol version, multichannel, port selection. Fine-tune connections for your NAS without editing config files.
See SMB signing status, protocol version, and network interface speed for every connection. Know immediately whether signing is costing you 30–50% throughput.
Detects shares macOS reports as mounted but are actually disconnected. These ghost mounts cause Finder hangs. Remount cleans them up automatically.
Can't unmount a share? See exactly which apps and system services are holding it open, so you can close them instead of force-disconnecting.
Encrypted configuration export, MDM-compatible profiles, Kerberos authentication, and per-user or global SMB settings for team-wide deployment.
Most network mount tools are designed for home NAS users. Remount is built for facilities where shared storage is infrastructure, not optional. Whether you're connecting to a Qumulo, VAST, Isilon, or a Synology on a shelf, it gives you the control macOS Finder doesn't.
