Reclaim disk space on your Mac with confidence.
QuickSweep finds the files consuming space on your Mac, including stale caches, logs, developer files, and forgotten downloads. You can clear them in a few clicks. You review exactly what will be removed before anything is deleted, and nothing leaves your device.
Listed on the App Store as QuickSweep: Disk Cleaner.
What it does
- Smart scan. Surfaces reclaimable space across dozens of known safe targets: app and browser caches, system logs, Trash, diagnostic reports, temp files, and more.
- Made for developers. Cleans common large items: Xcode DerivedData and archives, iOS device support, unavailable simulators, Flutter build folders in projects with a
pubspec.yaml, and package caches for npm, Homebrew, pip, Gradle, Cargo, SwiftPM, CocoaPods, Yarn, and pnpm, plus project build folders and local AI model storage. - Browse by size. Explore Documents, Downloads, Desktop and more with folder sizes measured live, biggest items first, so you decide yourself what to move to Trash.
- Review before you delete. See the complete list and total size for every category. The app states which cleanups move items to the Trash and which empty the Trash permanently.
- Clean History with Put Back. A Pro feature that lets you restore eligible items QuickSweep moved to the Trash.
Why it's safe
- You remain in control. QuickSweep removes only the items you select and shows their exact size and contents first.
- Protected paths are off-limits. System-critical and SIP-protected locations are never touched, along with active, recent, and restricted files.
- You choose what it can see. QuickSweep is sandboxed, so it scans only the folders you grant it in the macOS Finder picker. Select your startup disk there if you want a broader scan.
- Private by design. No file names, paths, or contents ever leave your Mac. Optional error diagnostics are fully redacted.
Highlights
- Native, fast, and responsive. Scanning and cleaning run outside the main thread, so the interface remains responsive during large operations.
- Accurate totals. Overlapping cleanup targets are de-duplicated, so the numbers reflect real reclaimable space.
- Instant re-navigation. Measured folder sizes are remembered as you browse.
Pricing
Free to download, with scanning and cleaning included. The free version may show a banner promoting our own apps and services. There is no third-party ad network, no personalized advertising, no advertising identifier, and no cross-app tracking behind it.
QuickSweep Pro is an optional auto-renewable subscription, available as a monthly or yearly plan. Both plans unlock the same benefits: Clean History with Put Back, and no promotional banner. Prices are shown by the App Store in your local currency before you buy. See the terms of service for the subscription and billing details.
Status
In beta on macOS, built with SwiftUI and distributed as a sandboxed, hardened-runtime build.
