A little better.
Every release.

What’s new in Moosh, what’s improved, and the little things that have been put right.

Moosh 0.6.0Latest release

More apps, a little more breathing room

Moosh now finds more of the caches your everyday apps leave behind.

I’ve taught Moosh a few more places to look for leftover caches, without adding more switches to fiddle with. It’s all part of App Caches.

  • Chat app caches from Slack and Discord, including Canary and PTB.
  • Generated audio and waveform caches from Premiere Pro, After Effects, and Media Encoder.
  • Launcher caches from Steam and Battle.net, leaving games, saves, and mods alone.
  • More editor caches and obsolete extensions from VS Code, VS Code Insiders, and Cursor, plus package download caches from Zed and caches from Postman and Insomnia.
  • Temporary streams and artwork from Apple Podcasts, image caches from NetNewsWire, and network caches from MindNode.

Moosh recognizes more app names now, too. App-specific cleanup waits until the apps that use those caches are closed. Your projects, drafts, current extensions, and downloaded episodes stay put, and mixed caches that may hold Local History or Spotify offline music stay protected.

You still get to review everything before cleaning. Thanks for giving Moosh a go!

A calmer way to clean your Mac

The first public release of Moosh, with free scanning and cleanup you control.

Moosh’s first public release makes storage cleanup deliberate and inspectable:

  • Scan and review your Mac for free before deciding whether to clean anything.
  • Review every suggestion, search and filter results, and change the selection before confirming cleanup.
  • Move user-visible items to Trash and permanently remove only bounded, regenerable data, with the cleanup method shown in advance.
  • Keep a local cleanup history with per-item outcomes and optional JSON export.
  • Buy a lifetime license through Polar for unlimited cleanups on up to five Macs. Activate in the app with the key provided after checkout and manage it in Polar.

Moosh 0.5.0 requires macOS 14 Sonoma or later. Locations that macOS does not allow Moosh to inspect are reported as access-limited instead of being treated as clean.
