Security & privacy

Your data stays yours

Full Disk Access required

FDA is only used to read cache folders macOS hides from sandboxed apps. MacSlimber never uploads your files.

No network access

The app cannot make outbound connections. Your file list never leaves your Mac.

No telemetry

No analytics, crash reporters, or usage tracking of any kind.

Notarized by Apple

Signed and notarized so Gatekeeper trusts the download.

Hardened Runtime

Memory protections and runtime hardening enabled in the release build.

Transparent paths

Every item shows the exact file path before you delete it.

Safe by default

Risky items are flagged. You choose what to remove.

Built for you

What MacSlimber offers

Everything you need to reclaim disk space — purpose-built for macOS developers.

Xcode & dev caches

Transparent paths

See the exact file path and size before anything is deleted.

No network, no telemetry

Your data stays on your Mac. No accounts or subscriptions.

Notarized & free

Apple-verified direct download. Open source on GitHub.

FAQ

Common questions

MacSlimber only targets caches, build artifacts, and junk files — not your source code. Every item shows its full path before deletion. Risky categories are flagged so you can review first.
