It's live — give it a try.

Speed

Seconds, not minutes.

Scan your whole Mac in about 12 seconds. Done before your coffee is.

  • Every core. Folders are read in parallel.
  • Straight from the disk. No slow per-file lookups.
  • Stays fresh. Only changed folders are re-read.

Hidden space

Find the missing gigabytes.

Space missing for no reason? Scan as administrator and it turns into real folders.

  • Other users. Their home folders, too.
  • Snapshots. Time Machine copies on your disk.
  • Protected folders. System areas apps can't open.

Not a cleaner

Not another Mac cleaner.

macOS cleans its own caches. When your disk is full, the real fix is finding the big stuff.

Is it really free?

Yes. Every feature, no account.
