bgviewer is a menu-bar kill-switch for macOS background services — see everything running behind your Mac and stop, pause, restart, or disable it, including the KeepAlive agents that respawn when killed.

New in 1.7.1

  • Dev Junk is now sorted biggest-first the whole time, not just after sizing finishes — the folders worth deleting are always at the top while sizes stream in; entries still being measured sink to the bottom.
