CleanMacJoe

CleanMacJoe is a free macOS utility for cleaning up disk space and managing installed apps. It is built natively in SwiftUI and signed by Apple, so it opens without security warnings. It requires macOS 26.5 or later and needs Full Disk Access, which macOS will ask you to grant on first launch.

The app has several sections. The Dashboard shows a live summary of how full your drive is. The Cleaner scans for files you probably do not need: app caches, log files, items sitting in the Trash, browser caches from Safari, Chrome, Firefox, and others, Xcode build artifacts if you do development, and files left behind by apps you have already uninstalled. You pick which categories to clean and review the list before removing anything.

A Duplicates scanner finds identical files across your Mac so you can remove the extra copies. A Large Files view shows the biggest files in your home folder so you can decide what to keep. The Uninstaller lets you remove apps along with all their associated support files and preferences, which a simple drag to the Trash would leave behind. There is also a Privacy section that clears browser history, cookies, and similar data.

Everything the app removes goes to the macOS Trash rather than being deleted immediately, so you can restore anything by accident. The app only touches user directories and never touches system-protected paths.

The app is free with no subscriptions or paywalls. It is available in English and Italian, following your Mac's language setting automatically. Version 1.7 added crash reporting via Firebase and anonymous usage analytics to help the developer improve future releases.
