To add a new bucket configuration, see the Adding a New Bucket guide for detailed step-by-step instructions.

Managing Buckets

Once buckets are configured, you can perform any of the folllowing actions on it:

Test Connection: Verify that your credentials are working correctly
Edit: Modify bucket configuration details
Duplicate: Create a new bucket configuration with the same configuration
Delete: Remove the bucket configuration R2Clone

Preferences

The Preferences tab contains general application settings.

Rclone Configuration

Rclone is the underlying tool that powers R2Clone.

The Status section shows whether Rclone is installed and if so, what version it is.

If Rclone is not already installed, click the Install button and R2Clone will automatically download and install an isolated version of Rclone. In Docker, Rclone is installed as part of the container setup.

Concurrent Transfers: Adjust the number of simultaneous file transfers. The default setting is 20.

Lower values use less CPU and network usage but are slower for overall transfer speeds. Use lower settings for systems with limited resources.
Higher values use more CPU and network intensive resources but provide siginifcantly faster overall transfer speeds. Use higher settings if your system can support it.

Backup Location

Choose the location where your backups will be saved. Backups will be inside an “R2Clone” directory at the selected location.

General Settings

Appearance

Choose your preferred theme:

Light: Always use light mode
Dark: Always use dark mode
System: Automatically match your operating system’s theme preference

Launch at Startup

Enable this option to automatically start R2Clone when your computer boots. This is useful if you want backups to run automatically even after a system loses power or restarts.

Docker manages application startup automatically, regardless of this setting.

Enable Notifications

Toggle system notifications on or off. Notifications only appear on the host systems desktop.

Web Server Configuration

Allow External Access: When enabled, R2Clone listens on the specified port, making it accessible from any device on your local network.
