freedisk.space 0.2.0

The first public build of freedisk.space: see where your disk space went, find what's worth a second look, and review every removal before it happens. Everything runs on your Mac.

Download: freedisk.space.dmg below. One app for Apple Silicon and Intel, macOS 14 Sonoma or later.

Install

1. Open the DMG and drag freedisk.space to Applications.
2. Open it. macOS will say it "could not verify" the app, because it isn't notarized by Apple yet (that needs a paid developer account; the code is public here). Click Done, then open System Settings › Privacy & Security, scroll down, click Open Anyway and confirm. This happens only once.
   Prefer Terminal? xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/freedisk.space.app
3. Turn on freedisk.space in Privacy & Security › Full Disk Access so the scan can see everything.

What's inside

• Overview, Find, Biggest Files and Folders, Forgotten Files, Duplicates (APFS clones recognised)
• Safe to Review, Caches, Old Downloads, Large Media, Developer Storage with rebuild costs
• File Browser, Visualize (treemap, sunburst, flame, bubbles, mind map, age map), Applications, Snapshots and storage history
• Cleanup: everything is staged and explained first, moved to the Trash only when you confirm, and Put Back undoes the last cleanup

• Dusty, the mascot, in the quiet moments (Settings › Show Dusty)

No accounts, no analytics. Update checks are off unless you turn them on.
