Dropover overview

Dropover is a utility that makes it easier to manage and move content between folders, applications, windows and workspaces using Drag and Drop. Shake your cursor and drop whatever you are dragging into the shelf. This shelf floats on top of all your other windows so you can navigate stress-free to your destination folder or program. It works with any draggable content; files, folders, text snippets and even images from a website.

Here's what you can do with Dropover:

Activate it using a shake gesture, menubar or global shortcut
Create multiple shelves or append files to an existing shelf. Then move all files at once to your destination
Upload dragged files to iCloud or Dropbox and directly get a shareable link copied to your clipboard. All in one click, right from Dropover's shelf
Reveal dragged content in Finder or directly share it using Messages, Mail or Airdrop
Manage and list individual files along with information such as name and file size. Preview them using Quick Look, reveal them in Finder or quickly share them
Drag individual files to destination
Remove individual files if you've dragged them by accident
Clear and familiar user interface. Satisfying Drag and Drop experience

Great Mac utility that saves a lot of time with bringing most of the used actions and the added value is the sharing to cloud storage, always updated and nice to have.

I previously used Yoink, but Dropover has one major advantage. Shaking a file with the mouse (or trackpad) brings the shelf into view just where it is needed - close to the file itself. You can then move the shelf to where you need the file to be dropped. Plus the developer is continuing to add new features.

Love this app, the mouse shake is intuitive and puts the shelf anywhere on the screen and I like the fact you can create separate shelves.

Not easy to see (and understand) the first half of the video demo ...

Seems like this is a similar idea to the more established Yoink. I love Yoink, and the developer is fantastic. But I'm more than happy to replace an app on my Mac if I finder a better or more affordable similar app. This app is most decidedly not Yoink. What prevents me from even trying this software is the lack of information on the website (what's in the free version vs what I get for the $4 in-app-purchase), and the fact that the marketing of the app on the website clearly shows that 90% of what this app does can be done with the Finder, right out of the box. In other words, the app doesn't actually do much.
