Unparalleled Power
MacCleanse is the product of thousands of hours of intense research and development. It meticulously scans all of the nooks and crannies of a computer for unnecessary junk that can take up huge amounts of disk space!
Because of this, Apps in MacCleanse are also uninstalled correctly, catching the numerous logs, caches, plugins, and other resources left behind versus simply dragging them to the Trash.
Your privacy is protected and computer performance enhanced by MacCleanse as it wipes your web and app histories, and can toggle resource-hungry extensions!
MacCleanse can be configured to run daily, weekly, or monthly on a recurring schedule to ensure scans are performed regularly! No schedule set? It'll still remind you once in a while!
MacCleanse will prompt you to complete uninstall an app if you're incorrectly dragging it to the Trash.
Specify files and folders that should never get touched during a cleanup, or files that should always be erased.
Safe & Secure
Enhanced with the security of some of the most complex algorithms in the industry, MacCleanse ensures the data you want to keep is protected from erasure, while everything else is wiped! Detailed scan results also allow you to completely review what is to be removed prior to erasure.
Choose from a variety of erasure types from quick and simple to military grade. Ensure files are never undeleted even with the most powerful recovery tools!

Great job of being able to maintain my Mac at the highest performing level by clearing cache and trash quickly and securely. The "safe mode" is good but I really like the configurability of the application where I can build a profile that allows me to keep some specific cache while clearing others completely.

I've been using Koingo's MacPilot for more than 10 years now on my Intel MBP and couldn't understand how anyone who owns a Mac could keep their Mac running at top shape without the valuable software they've created. In fact without it I guarantee your machine is NOT running as well as it would without these Koingo software programs. It's a necessary and essential program, without it, you're not doing yourself any favors. Now they've produced MacCleanse. Sure you could drag your caches into the trash bin every month, but why when MacCleanse will do it with extreme care and do so much more. You've invested in one of the most expensive computers on the market that run heads above all others, so why not make the very small investment to keep your Mac running at the top of it's game? It's a no-brainer for me, as it should be for you too. Don't hesitate, start using their products, they are of the highest quality and you won't be disappointed! Koingo Rocks!

MacCleanse is an application that works-simply, quickly and safely. MacCleanse allows the user to scan, delete logs, leftovers from removing (deleting) apps from your MacBook. A really top rate application and a necessity for any user.

I have been using Mac since 2009 now. I was always a big fan of ccleaner for windows products prior to that but when moved to mac, i really did not find a really good product to clear the browser history, delete unnecessary applications and other day to day activities till i bumped into MacCleanse on Apple store. Since i bought it, i have used it every day to keep my MAcBooks running in good shape up until i upgraded to Os X Yosemite and it stopped working coz apple has not approved the latest version. I am so happy with this product that i am going to spend money again to buy the latest version.
