Editorial interest 84/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A macOS utility that scans storage, shows results as they arrive, and updates its disk map immediately when files are deleted.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-31 issue.

Field notes

The described workflow begins showing a folder tree before the scan completes, allowing users to drill down while totals continue changing. The page highlights keyboard navigation, Finder-like columns, and separate logical versus allocated sizes, including a 4.0 GB versus 7.3 GB example. It also states that deleting an item updates parent totals without another scan, while warning that APFS may not return all deleted space to the user.
