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. bgviewer.shreshtharora.com
New in 1.9.1
- App Caches is now its own tab, next to Dev Junk — no longer buried below build artifacts. The Disk Map window now has three tabs: Folder map · Dev junk · App caches, each biggest-first with its own list.
- App Caches gets a dedicated UI with a prominent "quit the app before clearing its cache" banner, plus a direct shortcut chip in the Storage pane.
- Same paranoid guards:
com.apple.*never listed, guard re-checked at delete time, two-step confirm. - Build is now warning-free.
