Ejectify 2 - No more “Disk Not Ejected Properly“ notifications

Ejectify is a Mac menu bar utility that helps prevent “Disk Not Ejected Properly” alerts by safely unmounting selected volumes before sleep or display-off events, then mounting them again after wake. This can also reduce the risk of data loss and volume corruption. Ejectify 2 adds more reliable mounting and unmounting with an optional privileged helper, support for more volume types, and localization in 30+ languages.

Hi Product Hunt, I’m Niels, the developer of Ejectify. I originally built Ejectify to solve a small but persistent Mac annoyance: external drives not being safely ejected when a Mac goes to sleep, followed by a pile of “Disk Not Ejected Properly” alerts after wake. Instead of manually ejecting drives every time, Ejectify can automatically unmount selected volumes before sleep or display-off events, then mount them again after wake. What started as a personal fix has now helped tens of thousands of Mac users, and Ejectify 2 is a major update focused on reliability and broader device support. New in Ejectify 2: • More reliable mounting and unmounting with an optional privileged helper • A system-wide shortcut to unmount managed volumes • Support for more volume types, including disk images and SD cards • Localization in 30+ languages To celebrate the launch, Ejectify is available for €4.99 instead of €6.99 using the code EJECTIFY2 until May 31. For people who prefer to inspect or build from source, Ejectify is also available on GitHub (500+ stars). Happy to answer questions and would love to hear your feedback.
