DiskSense sits in your menu bar and shows how much space you have left. Click it to see what's using the rest, and clear the caches that grow back on their own, with Undo if you change your mind.
Most of a full disk isn't your files. It's caches, build folders and old installers that apps and tools leave lying around. DiskSense knows where they live, how big they are and what happens when they're gone.
npm, pnpm, Yarn, uv, pip, Homebrew, Xcode, Gradle, Go, Cargo, CocoaPods, Docker and more. Where a tool has its own clean command, DiskSense uses it.
Browsers, Slack, Spotify, Electron apps and leftover update downloads. Each one says what happens when it's cleaned.
Installers and archives you downloaded months ago. You choose which ones, and they go to the Trash, not straight to gone.
node_modules, build and target folders in projects you haven't opened for a while, plus old git worktrees.
Not sure where to start? DiskSense makes a plan, safest first, with a reason for each item. One click, and Undo if you need it.
Turn on weekly cleaning for package and build caches only. It never touches your projects, downloads, app data or models.
Open the Explorer window for the full picture of your Mac.
Treemap, sunburst and list views of every folder. Click into anything to see what's inside, and see what grew since last week.
The tools you'd otherwise need five apps for.
CPU, memory and network can also sit next to your free space in the menu bar.
A cleaner you're afraid to click is useless. So DiskSense is cautious by default.
Anything that's yours, like downloads, duplicates or old projects, is moved to the Trash with Undo. Only caches that rebuild themselves can be deleted outright.
It cleans a fixed list of known cache folders, plus only the files you tick yourself. It never goes through your documents or photos looking for things to delete.
No account, no tracking, no uploads. The only time it goes online is to check your apps' own update feeds when you open Updates.
Yes, while it's in beta. No account, no limits.
You need macOS 14 (Sonoma) or newer on an Apple silicon Mac (M1 or later). Intel Macs aren't supported in this beta.
That's because the beta isn't notarised by Apple yet. You only have to do this once:
Without it, macOS hides some folders, like the Trash, Mail downloads and device backups, so DiskSense can't measure or clean them. Everything else works without it. You can grant it later in System Settings → Privacy & Security → Full Disk Access.
Caches it deletes are ones apps and tools re-create on their own, and each row says what happens next, like “re-downloaded on the next install”. Anything that's yours goes to the Trash, and recent cleanups have an Undo button.
For now, download the latest version from this page and drag it into Applications again. Your settings and history stay as they are.
Quit it from its menu, drag it from Applications to the Trash, and delete ~/Library/Application Support/DiskSense if you want its history gone too.
Free while it's in beta. Download it, open it, and look up at your menu bar.
