“You can easily
spot apps and
files that are
taking up space
unnecessarily”
Start scanning
When you launch the app, click ‘Scan’
to get going. You can scan the whole
Mac HD or individual folders
Drag, drop, delete
You can drag unwanted apps and files
to the ‘collect’ spot in the lower-left
corner and batch-delete them
View and manage
When the app has finished scanning
your Mac, the results will be displayed
in an easy-to-digest format...
An easy to use app that displays very clearly exactly how the space on your HD is
used and provides a quick and simple way to purge additional storage back.
