What it does

Everything you need. Nothing you don't.

🔐
Multi-algorithm hashing

Choose SHA-256, SHA-512, SHA-1, or MD5, with real-time text hashing as you type.

📚
Batch file hashing

Import up to 100 files via drag-and-drop and hash them all at once, with one-click copy and Reveal in Finder.

Checksum verification

Verify any file against an expected hash, or import .md5/.sha1/.sha256/.sha512 files with automatic algorithm detection.

🗂️
File & folder comparison

Compare two files instantly or entire directories recursively — identical, different, and folder-only files are all flagged.

📄
Manifest export

Export checksums as Plain Text (BSD), GNU Coreutils, CSV, or JSON, with a live preview before saving.

🕘
Session history & inspector

Up to 50 recent sessions with quick restore, plus an always-visible panel showing algorithm and security classification.

Frequently asked questions

Is this a subscription?
No. MD5 Generator is a one-time purchase ($2.99). All features and updates are included with no recurring fees.
Does it use the cloud?
No. Hashing runs entirely on your Mac — your files never leave your machine and no account is required.
Which algorithms are supported?
SHA-256 and SHA-512 (marked Recommended), SHA-1 (Legacy), and MD5 (Insecure) — the inspector labels each one.
Can it compare whole folders?
Yes. Folder comparison works recursively and shows which files are identical, different, or present in only one folder.
What manifest formats can I export?
Plain Text (BSD), GNU Coreutils, CSV, and JSON, with a live preview before you save.
