MacOS Cleaner v2.1.0
Update 2.1.0 expands the application's capabilities with new system integrations, architectural optimizations, and smart cleanup tools, strictly following our safe-to-use philosophy.
🎙 Siri & App Shortcuts Integration
- Voice Control: Full support for Siri commands (e.g., "Hey Siri, clean DerivedData").
- App Shortcuts: System intents for automation via
Shortcuts.appand Automator, includingCleanDeveloperCachesIntent,GetStorageStatusIntent,CleanCategoryIntent, andRunScheduledCleanupIntent. - Management: Detailed Siri and automation settings built directly into the app.
🔍 Duplicate File Finder
- Multi-stage Comparison: Fast and precise search without external dependencies (Size filter ➔ 4KB Header hash ➔ Full SHA-256).
- Data Safety: Smart auto-selection for outdated copies and strict thread isolation (Swift 6 strict concurrency) to prevent data races.
🎨 Design & UI (macOS 27 Liquid Glass)
- Interactive Dashboard: New Apple Watch-style activity rings chart (
DiskRingsChartView) with exact used-space proportion calculations. - Native Aesthetics: Global adoption of Liquid Glass components (glass cards,
GlassPillPickertoggles,ProcessSplitButtondropdowns). - Window Optimization: Redesigned
SettingsView, adaptive scaling in the Uninstaller, unified paddings, and support for fixed minimum window sizes.
⚙️ High-Performance Scan Engine
- Hybrid Database: Covers 250+ apps and 1770+ paths. The architecture now uses an O(1) registry with build-time path compilation (no runtime JSON parsing).
- Offline Catalog: Internal offline catalog for uninstaller and cleanup paths, ensuring functionality without network access.
- App Residuals Engine: Dynamic discovery of leftover files from apps deleted before macOS Cleaner was installed (finds "orphaned" files based on 2+ evidence points).
- Developer Artifacts: Safe cleanup of multi-platform local build artifacts (Xcode/DerivedData, Node.js, Python, Gradle, CMake, Rust, Go, and Dart/Flutter).
- AI & Local LLM: Detection and opt-in manual cleanup of local AI models (Ollama, HuggingFace, LM Studio, whisper, etc.).
- APFS & Time Machine: Tracking and clearing of APFS Purgeable Space and Time Machine local snapshots.
- Hidden Caches: Dynamic discovery of Electron app caches (VS Code, Notion, Figma, Cursor, etc.) and stale app updates (Sparkle/Squirrel).
