Click Submit Selection. The workflow editor shows your GoPro Cloud source with the selected items. Pick your destination (local disk, Backblaze B2, AWS S3, Dropbox, or another supported provider), configure options, and click Save Workflow.
Close the workflow editor with the X button in the top-right corner. On the Workflows page, click the green Run button on your workflow card. Blober starts the transfer with parallel downloads, progress tracking, and automatic resume.
GoPro’s web portal limits batch downloads to 25 files at a time, bundled as ZIPs. Large downloads often fail. There is no bulk export and no “Download All” button.
Blober is the only tool that connects to GoPro Cloud. rclone, MultCloud, and Flexify do not support GoPro as a source.
No manual downloads. Files move directly from GoPro Cloud to your destination.
No file limits. Transfer 10 files or 10,000 in one run.
No subscription. Blober is a one-time purchase.
No middleman. Everything runs on your machine. Your credentials stay local.
You have files in the cloud - GoPro footage, Dropbox archives, Google Drive projects, S3 buckets - and you want them on your NAS. Simple enough in theory. In practice, the available options are all some flavor of painful.
Download then copy is the default workflow. Download everything from the cloud to your PC, then manually copy it to the NAS. You need enough free space on your PC for the entire dataset, you do every byte twice, and if the NAS connection drops mid-copy you start over.
CLI tools like rclone can mount cloud storage or sync directly, but you need to configure remotes, write YAML, manage credentials, and troubleshoot provider-specific flags. It works - eventually. It’s not something most people reach for on a Saturday afternoon.
SaaS migration services like MultCloud or Cloudsfer route your files through their servers. Your data leaves your network, passes through a third party, then comes back down to your NAS. It’s slower, it’s a privacy concern, and it costs a monthly subscription - usually with transfer caps.
GoPro Cloud has no solution at all. No migration tool supports it. rclone doesn’t. MultCloud doesn’t. You’re stuck batch-downloading 25 files at a time through a web browser, manually.
Blober is a desktop app that connects to 10 cloud providers and transfers files to any local or network destination - including NAS drives.
The architecture is straightforward: Blober runs on your computer, pulls data from the cloud API, and writes it to whatever destination you select in the file picker. If that destination is a mapped network drive (\\SYNOLOGY\backup or /Volumes/NAS/media), the files go there.
No intermediate server. No extra copy on your local disk. No subscription.
Connect your cloud source. Blober supports GoPro Cloud, Dropbox, Google Drive, AWS S3, Azure Blob, Backblaze B2, Cloudflare R2, Wasabi, and DigitalOcean Spaces. Authenticate once.
Pick your NAS folder. The standard OS folder picker shows your mapped network drives. Select the target directory on your NAS.
Transfer. Blober streams the files and writes them directly to the network path. If your connection drops or the NAS goes to sleep, the transfer resumes from where it stopped.
NAS owners tend to be people who care about data ownership, long-term archival, and not paying recurring fees for storage they already bought. Blober aligns with all three.
Your files stay on your network. Unlike SaaS tools that route data through external servers, Blober pulls from the cloud API and writes locally. For NAS users who chose a NAS precisely to keep data under their control, this matters.
One-time payment. NAS users already rejected the subscription model when they bought hardware instead of renting cloud storage. Blober follows the same philosophy: pay once, use forever.
Scale doesn’t matter. Whether you’re backing up 50 GoPro clips or migrating 10 TB from S3, there are no transfer caps, no per-GB fees, and no throttling.
Data holders are individuals and organizations that accumulate, manage, and preserve large volumes of digital files as a core part of their work. They aren’t just storing files - they’re responsible for keeping data accessible, organized, and safe across years and even decades.
Data holders include:
Photographers and videographers with terabytes of RAW footage and project archives
Researchers and academics maintaining datasets, papers, and experimental outputs
Small businesses managing client records, invoices, contracts, and media assets
IT administrators responsible for infrastructure backups and compliance archives
Content creators with libraries of video, audio, and design files across platforms
Legal and medical professionals bound by retention requirements for sensitive records
Personal archivists preserving family photos, home videos, and documents
What unites them is a common problem: data grows, scatters, and becomes harder to manage over time.
Blober is a desktop application purpose-built for data holders who need to move, organize, and back up files across cloud providers and local storage - without recurring fees.
Instead of downloading files to your machine and re-uploading them, Blober transfers data directly between providers. This matters for data holders because:
Saves time - a 2 TB migration doesn’t bottleneck on your home internet
Saves bandwidth - your ISP data cap stays intact
Reduces failure points - no half-downloaded files sitting on your local disk
Data holders accumulate files over years. Manually sorting them into folders is unsustainable. Blober supports path templates that use file metadata to auto-organize during transfer:
/{year}/{month}/{camera_model}/{filename}
A flat dump of 50,000 files becomes a clean archive:
/2025/06/HERO13 Black/GX015742.MP4
/2025/06/Canon EOS R5/IMG_4521.CR3
/2026/01/iPhone 15 Pro/IMG_0032.HEIC
This works for any transfer - cloud-to-cloud, cloud-to-local, or local-to-cloud.
Most cloud migration tools charge per-GB or require annual subscriptions with data caps. For data holders who move terabytes regularly, those costs compound:
Tool
Pricing Model
Cost for 10 TB/year
Flexify.io
~$0.03/GiB per migration
~$300+ (plus egress)
MultCloud
$99.98/year for 2.4 TB cap
~$400+ (need multiple renewals)
rclone
Free but manual
$0 (but hours of CLI configuration)
Blober
One-time purchase
One price, unlimited transfers
You buy Blober once. Transfer 1 TB or 100 TB - the price doesn’t change.
Data holders shouldn’t need a subscription to manage their own files. Blober runs locally on your machine - your credentials never pass through third-party servers, your transfer bandwidth isn’t metered, and your workflow isn’t gated by monthly caps.
One license. Unlimited providers. Unlimited data.
Get Blober and take control of your data workflow.
Every time you use a SaaS cloud transfer tool (MultCloud, Flexify, or any browser-based service), your files pass through someone else’s servers. Your vacation photos, your client deliverables, your financial backups: all routed through infrastructure you don’t control, operated by companies you’ve never audited.
Most people don’t think about this. They click “transfer,” see a progress bar, and assume their files went from A to B. In reality, the path is A to middleman to B. That middleman sees your filenames, your folder structure, and in many cases, the file contents themselves.
Blober is a desktop app. It runs on your machine (Mac, Windows, or Linux) and talks directly to your cloud provider’s API. When you transfer files from AWS S3 to Backblaze B2, the data flows from your machine to the provider endpoint. No relay. No proxy. No middleman.
This isn’t just a privacy feature. It’s a fundamentally different architecture:
SaaS tools: Your Machine > Their Server > Cloud Provider
Blober: Your Machine > Cloud Provider (direct)
Your credentials never leave your device. Your files never touch a server you didn’t choose. And because there’s no middleman bandwidth to pay for, there are no per-GB transfer charges from the tool itself. You only pay what your cloud provider charges.
Blober connects to 10 providers (AWS S3, Azure Blob Storage, Backblaze B2, Cloudflare R2, DigitalOcean Spaces, Dropbox, Google Drive, GoPro Cloud, Local Disk, and Wasabi), all from a single app with a visual file browser.
No subscriptions. No per-transfer fees. One purchase, lifetime access. And every byte stays between you and your cloud provider.
GoPro Cloud (included with GoPro Plus / GoPro Premium) stores your camera footage automatically. It’s convenient, until you need to actually do something with it.
The problems with keeping everything in GoPro Cloud:
No easy bulk export. GoPro’s web portal limits batch downloads to 25 files at a time, bundled as a ZIP. Large downloads frequently fail or time out.
No third-party integrations. No other file transfer tool (rclone, MultCloud, Flexify) can connect to GoPro Cloud. You’re stuck with the GoPro web interface.
Subscription lock-in. Cancel GoPro Plus and you lose access to your footage. Your media is held hostage by a recurring charge.
No redundancy. If GoPro changes their cloud offering or shuts it down, you have no backup unless you’ve already downloaded everything manually.
Why Dropbox makes a good destination:
Accessible everywhere. Desktop, mobile, web. Dropbox works across all devices.
Selective sync. Keep large video files in the cloud and only download what you need locally.
Sharing built in. Send footage to clients, collaborators, or editors with a link.
Established and reliable. Dropbox has been around since 2007 and isn’t going anywhere.
Integration with editing tools. Many video editors and photo apps integrate directly with Dropbox.
Moving your footage from GoPro Cloud to Dropbox gives you a second copy in a provider you control, one that doesn’t depend on a GoPro subscription to access.
Blober is the only desktop app that connects directly to GoPro Cloud. No browser extensions, no manual downloads, no CLI config files. You create a workflow, press play, and your media transfers automatically.
Open Blober, go to the Workflows page, and click New Workflow. Select GoPro as the source and Dropbox as the destination. Pick the folders you want to transfer from and where they should land.
Click the play button on your workflow. Blober connects to both providers and starts transferring files immediately. Every file (photos, videos, time-lapses) gets moved directly from GoPro Cloud to Dropbox without touching your local disk first (unless you want it to).
The Progress page shows exactly what’s happening: files transferred, bytes moved, current speed, and estimated time remaining. If something goes wrong, you can pause, retry, or cancel at any time.
