What is Fetch?

Who Wants To Be a Millionaire had a hand in the story of Fetch.

By James Nunns

Fetch is designed for getting, transferring and reading data objects.

This should not be confused with the slang term fetch that was popularised in the hit naughties movie Mean Girls.

Fetch is a FTP client which is only available on Mac OS. As a FTP, Fetch transfers computer files while also boasting more advanced features such as the ability to edit files without the need to download and re-upload them.

The full-featured GUI-based FTP client is made by Fetch Softworks, and was originally created by Jim Matthews in 1989.
