Bytesweep· Mac disk cleaner

Bytesweep is a storage analysis and cleanup tool designed for macOS and Linux that helps users reclaim disk space without guessing what is being deleted. It scans drives to pinpoint where storage is being used across large items like Docker containers, Xcode data, local AI models, and photo libraries, warning users before removing critical files.

Built primarily for developers and power users dealing with large caches, virtual machines, and unpushed git history, the app sorts findings into clear safety categories. It separates safe-to-clear build outputs from irreplaceable items like SSH keys and open databases, refusing to touch the operating system or home folder directly.

Unlike traditional cleaners that promise automated maintenance or speed improvements, Bytesweep focuses strictly on storage visibility with eight interactive visualization views and a seven-day undo window for every sweep. It operates entirely offline with no accounts, subscriptions, or telemetry required.
