- For
- Mac users trying to understand or reclaim disk space
- Worth noticing
- Cleanup items go to the Trash first, and actions wait for confirmation; the page says nothing runs until the user approves it.
Field notes
The page gives a specific account of the forecast: hourly measurements, three days to establish a pace, and a straight-line estimate based on the last 30 days. Its storage guide names concrete categories—including local snapshots, simulator runtimes, and Docker data—and describes what each cleanup action affects. The stated system requirements are macOS 14 or later on Apple Silicon or Intel; the page also provides a Homebrew cask command and GitHub source link.
