AppCleaner

AppCleaner is a small macOS utility that removes applications and the ancillary files they leave behind. Users drag an unwanted program onto the AppCleaner window, and the tool scans the system for related components such as preferences, caches, and support files. After the scan, a single click deletes the identified items, helping to reclaim disk space that would otherwise be occupied by leftover data.

The software targets macOS users who want a straightforward way to clean up after uninstalling applications, especially when the standard removal process leaves scattered files. It supports a range of macOS versions, from older releases like Snow Leopard and Leopard up through newer ones such as Mojave and High Sierra, with specific version builds for each OS range.

AppCleaner is distributed as freeware and is considered stable, offering a simple drag‑and‑drop interface without additional configuration. Its core functionality focuses on locating and safely deleting the residual files that applications distribute across the system.
