Free for macOS 15 and later
See what's filling your Mac. Clear it calmly.
Spaciously draws your disk as a ring, finds what's safe to remove, and keeps watch from the menu bar. Nothing goes anywhere until you've looked.
This is Spaciously's explorer on an example Mac. Point at the ring, click a folder to open it, tick a box to add it to the Cleanup List.
Disk cleanup without the scare tactics.
Most cleaners sell you fear. Spaciously tells you what's there and lets you decide.
“Your Mac has 4,312 junk files!”
Plain answers instead of alarms
Every finding says what it is, how big it is, and whether it comes back on its own.
Clicking through Finder, folder by folder
See where the space went
The ring shows your whole disk two levels deep. Click a slice to go in.
Worrying you'll delete the wrong thing
Nothing is deleted by surprise
You review everything first. It goes to the Trash unless you choose to delete it for good, and system folders are off-limits.
“Startup disk is almost full”, out of nowhere
A heads-up before it fills
Space Watch notices the trend and tells you while there's still room to act.
Suggestions finds what's safe to remove.
Caches, build leftovers, old installers, forgotten downloads and duplicates. Each one is marked Safe, Review or Caution, with one plain sentence about what it is and whether it comes back.
Safe items start ticked. Everything else waits for you.
- Skips caches of apps that are running
- Leaves projects you've worked on this week alone
- Keeps the copy of a duplicate that lives in Documents
Xcode
Build products and debug symbols Xcode makes again when it needs them.
Old device backups
iPhone and iPad backups more than a year old.
App caches
Files apps keep to load faster. They rebuild them as needed.
Old installers
Disk images and installers in Downloads. The app is probably installed by now.
Old project dependencies
Packages a project installs. One command brings them back.
Large, untouched files
Big files you haven't opened in six months. Worth a look first.
In the Cleanup List. In the app you'd review the list, then move it to the Trash.
Nothing is deleted by surprise.
Spaciously is built to be trusted with your files. Every removal takes the same three steps.
Add it to the Cleanup List
Tick the box beside an item, drag a slice, or send Suggestions' picks. The Cleanup List holds them; nothing moves yet.
Review the list
See every item, its size and any caution in one sheet. Spaciously checks each one again in case an app opened since.
Trash it, or delete it for good
By default items go to the Trash, where Put Back works. In a hurry? Delete Immediately skips the Trash and frees the space at once, after a second warning.
Always off-limits
- macOS and its system folders
- Apps that are running
- Your Photos and Music libraries
- Keychains and SSH keys
- iCloud Drive folders
- Spaciously itself
Space Watch sees it coming.
A small ring in your menu bar fills as your disk does. Spaciously records a little each day, so it can show you what grew this week and when the disk will be full at this rate.
If space runs low, a single calm notification tells you, at most once a day. Every alert can be turned off.
- Under 30 MB of memory while it waits
- Catches up every 6 hours, not constantly
- History stays on your Mac
At this rate it fills in about 21 days.
Grew this week
- Movies+6.1 GB
- DerivedData+3.4 GB
- Docker+2.2 GB
- Downloads+1.6 GB
At this rate it will be full in about 21 days.
Fluent in developer Macs.
Developer machines fill up in their own ways. Suggestions knows where to look, and how each thing comes back.
- Xcode build data
- DerivedData, device symbols, simulator caches, old archives
- Project dependencies
- node_modules, Pods, .build, target, .venv in projects you've left
- Package caches
- npm, pnpm, Yarn, Bun, pip, Cargo, Go, Gradle, Maven, CocoaPods
- Machine learning
- Hugging Face model downloads you no longer use
- Installers and downloads
- Disk images, .pkg and .xip files, things you never opened
- Device backups
- iPhone and iPad backups more than a year old
Spaciously collects nothing.
No analytics, no accounts, no crash reporters, no ads. Your scans and history stay on your Mac. The only thing Spaciously ever fetches is a short list of versions, once a day, so it can offer updates. Read the privacy statement.
Questions.
Is Spaciously really free?
Yes. Every feature, every update, no trial, no account and no ads. There's nothing to unlock.
Can it delete something important?
Not by surprise. Items you choose wait in the Cleanup List until you review them, then move to the Trash, where you can put them back. If you'd rather skip the Trash, Delete Immediately removes them for good, but only after a second warning. Either way, Spaciously refuses to touch macOS, running apps, your Photos and Music libraries, keychains and iCloud Drive.
How is it different from DaisyDisk or CleanMyMac?
Like DaisyDisk, it shows your disk as a ring you can explore. Unlike either, Suggestions tells you which items are safe to remove and why, Space Watch keeps a daily record and warns you before the disk fills, and it costs nothing.
What does Scan as Administrator do?
Some folders only macOS can read. With your approval, Spaciously installs a small helper that measures them. The helper can only read sizes, it has no way to change or delete a file, and it only answers the Spaciously app.
Does it need Full Disk Access?
It works without it, but some folders in your Library stay hidden. Spaciously shows a one-click link to the right System Settings pane, and you can turn it off any time.
What does it collect?
Nothing. No analytics, no telemetry, no crash reports. The only connection it makes is a daily check for updates, which you can switch off.
Which Macs does it run on?
Any Mac with macOS 15 Sequoia or later, Apple silicon or Intel.
