Features

See the whole footprint.

Expunge makes every step visible before an app or its related files move to Trash.

Application discovery

Scan user and system applications using macOS Launch Services and Spotlight.

Related file inventory

Review preferences, caches, application support, and saved state with category, path, and size.

Removal policy

Protected apps stay protected. Restricted Apple software gets an additional confirmation.

GUI and CLI

Use the native app or inspect results from the terminal as readable text or JSON.

Review before you act

Results show each related path and group it by purpose. Turn off anything you want to keep. Removals go to macOS Trash so they remain recoverable.

Scans in protected locations can be incomplete without Full Disk Access. Expunge labels its results as best effort when macOS limits access.
