Cleanup and Uninstall

27 apps

Cleanup and uninstall tools remove leftover files when you delete an app, clear caches and show what is using disk space. Dragging an app to the Trash leaves preferences, caches and support files behind in the Library folder, and these apps find and remove them.

Pearcleaner is a free, open source uninstaller that finds an app's related files. Cleaner for Xcode clears derived data, old simulators and archives, which can take many gigabytes, and SquirrelDisk visualizes disk usage with sunburst and treemap views. Be wary of tools that promise to speed up your Mac; macOS manages its own caches, so review what will be deleted first.
