Reclaim storage without digging through hidden folders
Lime Cleaner helps you find large files that macOS, applications, browsers, and development tools leave behind. Review everything before removal, see how much space each item uses, and decide whether to move it to Trash or delete it permanently.
What Lime Cleaner finds
- Application and browser caches
- Developer caches and build output
- Old node_modules, Cargo targets, virtual environments, and other reproducible dependencies
- Downloaded installers such as DMG, PKG, ISO, XIP, and ZIP files
- Xcode archives and simulator devices
- Local iPhone and iPad backups
- Unused Docker resources
- Application logs and Trash contents
See what’s taking up space with Disk Analyzer
Disk Analyzer gives you a fast, Finder-style view of your Mac’s storage. Browse through folders, identify large files, and understand exactly where your disk space is going.
- Explore files and folders in an intuitive column view
- Sort by size, name, creation date, or modification date
- Open files or reveal them in Finder
- Move unwanted items safely to Trash
- Scan locally—your file information never leaves your Mac
Designed for confident cleanup
Lime Cleaner shows the size, location, age, and purpose of every result. Development dependencies are only suggested when the app can identify how they can be recreated.
You stay in control:
- Search, sort, and inspect results before removal
- Automatically identify files and dependencies that have been idle
- Move files to Trash when you may want to restore them
- Choose permanent deletion when you need the space immediately
- Exclude projects and folders from future scans
- Recheck every item immediately before removing it
- Reopen your latest scan from cleanup history
Built for developers
Old project dependencies and build artifacts can quietly consume tens or hundreds of gigabytes. Lime Cleaner recognizes common reproducible directories across Node.js, Rust, Python, Java, Swift, Flutter, .NET, and modern web frameworks.
Remove old generated content today and rebuild it later with the project’s normal package manager or build command.
Privacy
Lime Cleaner runs locally on your Mac. Your scan results and file information stay on your device.
Full Disk Access is recommended so Lime Cleaner can inspect protected cache and application folders. You can review every detected item before anything is removed.

Download Lime Cleaner for macOS
Requires macOS and may request Full Disk Access for complete scanning. Since the app is distributed outside the Mac App Store, macOS may ask you to confirm that you want to open an application downloaded from the internet.
