AppCleaner 3.7
Free Mac app uninstaller that removes caches and leftover files
Uninstall Mac apps completely, leftovers and all
When you delete an app the usual way, it almost always leaves files behind: preferences, caches and other data it created along the way. Over time, these add up and take up space. AppCleaner finds every associated file and removes it together with the app.
Just drag and drop
Drop an app onto the AppCleaner icon instead of the Trash. AppCleaner finds all related files stored outside the app's folder and lists them for you. All that's left is to confirm.
You stay in control
Preview files with Quick Look and reveal them in Finder. Items AppCleaner isn't sure about are left unticked, so nothing gets removed without your say.
Features
- Remove apps along with their preferences, caches and support files.

Frequently asked questions
How do I install the app?
Mount the image, drag the app into the "Applications" folder and launch it. If the system blocks the launch, allow it in "System Settings → Privacy & Security".
The app is damaged or won't launch
Reinstalling from a fresh image usually helps. Make sure your macOS version matches the one listed in the compatibility specs.
How do I update?
Download the new version from the site and install it over the current one — your settings will be preserved.
The download link doesn't work
Try a mirror or a download manager. For large files the browser often drops the connection.
How do I completely remove the app?
Use an uninstaller utility — it cleans up the service files that remain after moving the app to the trash.
