Fussel 1.1.4

Less fluff, more Mac.
Buttons that only show up when they have something to do.

Fussel's overview: Scan on its own, then Clean sliding in after the scan

What's new

  • Clean when there's something to clean: before a scan you only see Scan. Once Fussel has found something, Clean slides in next to it and Scan steps back to a quieter button. After cleaning up, Clean goes away again. Same on every tool page
  • No more faded buttons while busy: while Fussel scans or cleans, the button shows a small spinner with "Scanning…" or "Cleaning…" instead of turning grey
  • Neater buttons in the dark: the light buttons sit on a darker edge now, so they no longer look like they have a second outline. A button that's switched off lies flat instead of showing two shadows
  • The sidebar slides: showing or hiding it (⌃⌘S) is animated again

Safety first

Everything Fussel cleans goes to the Trash first, and Undo puts it right back. Only items that are already in the Trash are deleted for good, and Fussel asks before doing that. System files, Apple apps and your main folders are never touched, and nothing marked Review First is ever picked for you. Nothing inside your Photos, Music or iMovie library is ever touched either. 30 automatic tests guard these rules on every build.

Install

Recommended: the installer

  1. Download Fussel-Installer.zip below. Your Mac unpacks it to Fussel-Installer.pkg; open that.
  2. Fussel isn't signed with an Apple Developer ID yet, so macOS blocks it at first. Open System Settings › Privacy & Security, scroll down and click Open Anyway next to the Fussel installer.
  3. Click through the installer. Fussel lands in your Applications folder and appears in the menu bar, next to the clock.
  4. Recommended: allow Full Disk Access in System Settings › Privacy & Security, so Fussel can reach the Trash and every hidden cache.

Already using Fussel? On 0.9.8 or later, just click Update Now. Older versions: install this one by hand once with the installer.

Or: drag and drop

Open Fussel.dmg and drag Fussel onto the Applications folder. Before the first launch, run this once in Terminal:

xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Fussel.app

Requires macOS 14 Sonoma or later. Runs natively on Apple Silicon and Intel. The Glass cards need macOS 26; earlier versions get frosted glass.

Good to know

  • Undo works as long as the items are still in the Trash.
  • Found something odd? Send Feedback in Fussel's menu opens a GitHub issue, already filled in with your Fussel and macOS version. Screenshots help a lot.
