BroomKit

BroomKit is a native macOS disk cleaner and app uninstaller built for transparency and safety. It scans the entire home folder across 16 categories — app caches, package caches, dependency folders, simulators, logs, duplicates, old installers, and more — and shows exactly what it found and where before anything is removed.

The free version provides a full disk scan, an interactive Disk Map treemap visualisation, a large and old file finder, and per-file path browsing — permanently free with no account or credit card required. A one-time licence unlocks Reclaim, which moves selected junk to Trash and empties it, and an App Uninstaller that finds support files by exact bundle identifier across multiple Library directories.

Everything goes to the Trash rather than being directly unlinked, so every removal is recoverable until Trash is emptied. Inferred items start unchecked, and every file is shown with its full path before anything moves. No administrator password is requested.

Developer machines are a deliberate focus: package manager caches for npm, pnpm, and pip, Xcode DerivedData, simulators, nested hidden stores, and Docker-related data are all handled. BroomKit is written in Swift, runs natively on macOS 14 and later on both Apple Silicon and Intel Macs, and is notarized by Apple and Developer ID signed. The entire scan runs on-device with no file paths or results transmitted.
