How it works

Three steps. Nothing disappears by surprise.

  1. Scanning286 GB
    Step 01

    Scan

    Pick your home folder, any folder or an external drive. DiskMate sizes every folder and file, hidden ones included.

    Review

    Green is safe: apps rebuild it. Orange is a real file, so look first. Quick Look anything or reveal it in Finder.

    Step 03

    Clean

    Tick what goes and press Clean. Nothing is ticked for you, and everything moves to the Trash, not into thin air.

Changed your mind? Every step can be undone.

Open the Trash, select what you want and choose Put Back. It returns to the exact folder it came from. Only emptying the Trash deletes for good, and DiskMate labels that button clearly.

Questions

Mac storage questions, answered.

Freeing up space on your Mac
How do I free up storage space on my Mac?
Open DiskMate and scan your home folder. The Overview shows how much is safe to clear (caches, logs, package caches, build leftovers, the Trash) and how much is worth a look (old downloads, disk images, large media). Tick what you want gone and press Clean. Everything moves to the Trash, so you can put it back.
How do I find large files on my Mac?
The Space page ranks every folder and file by size, as a list or as a treemap, sunburst or bubble chart you can click into. Search lets you filter by size, for example everything over 1 GB, and Old files lists big files you haven't changed in over a year.
How do I completely uninstall an app on Mac?
Dragging an app to the Trash leaves its caches, containers, preferences and logs behind in ~/Library. DiskMate's Apps page finds those leftovers, shows the app's full size, and moves the app and its files to the Trash together. It also lists the background agents that start with your Mac.
Is it safe to delete caches on a Mac?
Usually yes. Apps rebuild their caches when they need them, which is why DiskMate lists caches and logs under Safe to clear. They still go to the Trash rather than being deleted, so nothing is lost if an app misbehaves.
How do I find duplicate files on a Mac?
Run Duplicates in DiskMate. It groups files by size, then confirms each match with a SHA-256 hash, so only true byte-for-byte copies are shown. Keep one of each with a single click and the rest go to the Trash.
The app
What does DiskMate do?
It scans your Mac and shows you where the space went, by folder, by kind and by age. Then it helps you clear what you don't need: caches, build leftovers, duplicates, old downloads and apps you no longer use.
Which Macs does it run on?
Macs with Apple silicon (M1 or newer) running macOS 14 Sonoma or later. There's no Intel or Windows version right now.
Can I scan an external drive?
Yes. Choose any folder or mounted drive and DiskMate scans it the same way it scans your home folder.
How fast is it?
The first scan walks every file, so it depends on how many you have. After that, DiskMate reopens the last scan instantly and only re-reads the folders that changed.
Why does it ask for Full Disk Access?
macOS hides some folders, like Mail and parts of ~/Library, from apps unless you allow it. Without access DiskMate still works, but some sizes will be incomplete. It tells you when that's the case and opens the right Settings pane.
Safety & privacy
Could I delete something I need?
DiskMate never deletes anything on its own. You tick what goes, and it moves to the Trash, where you can restore it. The one exception is emptying the Trash itself, which is clearly labelled 'Deletes for good'.
Does the app send anything off my Mac?
No. Scanning, hashing and everything else happens on your Mac. The app has no account, no analytics and never sends file names anywhere.
Buying
How much is DiskMate?
$5, paid once. There's no subscription and nothing to renew.
How do I get the app after paying?
Checkout emails you a download link straight away. Open the .dmg and drag DiskMate into Applications.
Is DiskMate safe to install?
Yes. DiskMate is signed with an Apple Developer ID and notarized by Apple, which has checked it for malicious software. It opens like any other app, with no security warnings to work around.
What if I don't like it?
