Recover gigabytes of lost storage
MacCleanse is a powerful application geared towards purifying your system and reclaiming hard disk space. In only seconds, it can perform over fifty tasks which could take hours to perform manually. Safely uninstall applications, slim Universal Binaries, wipe unused language files, erase caches, empty logs, clear cookies, delete web histories, locate unused and old files and more. MacCleanse won't miss a thing and could reclaim hundreds of megabytes, if not gigabytes, of storage.
Safely, and securely, removes files
MacCleanse can wipe files with US Department of Defense level security. It will also provide detailed information on each item it cleanses for your records. MacCleanse provides a detailed list of all items it intends to clear before the operation completes, which allows you select what does and does not get removed. You can even create a preset list of items to erase and set it to a weekly cleaning schedule so you won't even have to think about it.
Maintain your privacy
It is an ideal solution when shopping for gifts, cleansing the system after someone else has used it, when preparing to sell your computer, or just for reclaiming wasted disk space. But, most importantly, ensure your personal information is out of reach.
Custom-tailored
MacCleanse also contains enhanced features for specific applications like: Acquisition, Adium, AIM, aMSN, Azureus, Bit Torrent, Colloquy, FireFox 2 & 3, iCab, iChat, ICQ, Internet Explorer, Mozilla, MPlayer, MSN Messenger, Netscape, OmniWeb, Opera, Preview, QuickTime, Safari, Skype, Transmission, Unison, Xtorrent, and Yahoo Messenger. These enhanced features allow you to pick and choose what exactly to remove from the application. For example, you can choose to only auto-fill values from Safari or the recent download history in Xtorrent.

User Reviews
"This app is wonderful. Very simple to use but it does so much. I've recovered countless gigabytes of lost storage just by using this app and uncovering what I didn't even know I had in there. How did I ever live without this thing?!" — Craig Nickson
"Not only does this app clear out unwanted files and duplicates, it does it simply, securely and instantaneously. I don't think I could ask for more. The interface is eye-catching as well and very easy to figure out. I've recovered so much precious disk space thanks to this ingenious invention, and just on that fact alone, I couldn't possibly recommend this app more." — Connon Kraft
"Running a MacBook Air with only 120 gigabytes of storage in it, I need every bit of it that I can preserve. MacCleanse is the perfect app to help me with keeping my storage use to a minimum and keep my Mac running smoothly. Everyone should own a copy. It's absolutely essential." — James White
"Does a superb job of deleting what you want gone, and leaving untouched what you don't. At first I was a little apprehensive about an app that could possibly delete something important, and delete it well - but my fears have been silenced since using it for the first time. What a wonderful job Koingo has done here." — John Yukon
"Great app and even greater support for it - Koingo listens to their customers and are always updating these apps to make them better. MacCleanse is the greatest app of its kind, and it's getting greater every day. This should be a Mac essential. Someone should seriously talk to Apple about that." — Joel Hansen
"The simplest and most thorough system clean-up I've ever seen. I always dreaded doing this stuff manually, but now I don't have to. What a lifesaver MacCleanse has been - not only for my Mac's personal well-being, but for my own." — Christopher McTureen
"I don't know how anyone lives without this app. I run this thing weekly. If I didn't, I feel like I'd be seriously missing something. The price point can't steer you wrong, either - seriously, 20 bucks for all of this? I spend more on useless junk every time I go grocery shopping. I'm sure I'm not the only one. Kind of makes me want to re-evaluate things a little. Stuff like MacCleanse is worth twice that to me." — Jeff Loewen
"I had no idea that I had so many duplicate files! This app is gold. I just can't believe how much storage space I've freed up just by running this thing ONCE. You don't even know what you're missing, people. This app is worth everything you'll pay for it and then some." — Terri Baker
"I'll be the first to say that I don't know much about computers, but this app is so easy to use that I don't need to. It has a "safe" option for people like me that are paranoid they're going to blow up the whole entire computer just by pressing one wrong button. It does everything for me without flaw or cause for worry. Seriously, you won't be disappointed!" — Nancy Fry
"Does everything it's advertised to do. No disappointments or surprises save for the positive ones - I've very impressed with how much space it actually freed up in my system! This one is definitely a keeper. Koingo officially has me as a loyal customer until the day I keel over." — Melissa Marsh
