CleanMyMac X for Mac
Delete files that waste your disk space.
CleanMyMac X makes space for the things you love. Sporting a range of ingenious new features, CleanMyMac lets you safely and intelligently scan and clean your entire system, delete large, unused files, reduce the size of your iPhoto library, uninstall unneeded apps or fix the ones that started to work improperly, manage all your extensions from one place and do much more - all from one newly designed and beautifully simple interface.
Considering that this app really does not do that much and the updates are very minor, the subscription model is overpriced as is the one time buy of software.
Does not remove apps properly. Only handles the generic sprawl that apps create and does not handle the specifics for a given app. Considering that it is a subscription based software, this is a big negative as it should have app-definitions that know the extra sprawl of specific apps, just like malware-definitions know the attack vectors of malware. The app also does not remove all the caches it should, nor does it allow for end user defined cache areas to clean when cleaning caches. This app is expensive enough in a subscription model where it should have a constant update to the cache locations and the developers should perform due diligence in constantly updating such to perform an actual "clean". Hence this is really TidyMyMac and not CleanMyMac.
Annoyingly it keeps on reminding you of a disk that is inserted, low on space, and after you have pressed the "ignore" button a dozen times while the disk has not been removed. In the clean up sequence of removing foreign languages, etc, this app also has a tendency to remove too much from other 3rd party apps which can cause those apps to malfunction.
