Dusty finds the caches, leftovers, and forgotten files quietly filling your disk — then shows you everything before it goes.
Everything in one place
From everyday cleanup to the files you forgot existed, Dusty puts it all in one clear view — and keeps you in charge of what goes.
One scan checks caches, logs, Mail downloads, Trash, and developer data. Open any category to see the exact files inside — no vague “system junk” line items.
See it in actionDusty finds the preferences, caches, containers, and logs an app leaves behind — then lets you review them alongside the app.
Exact copies are verified by content hash. One copy stays protected, and the extras move to Trash only after you confirm.
Browse your disk as a map of real folder sizes. Drill down into anything and reveal it in Finder when you want a closer look.
Also inside: protection checks, large & old file review, and optional scheduled cleaning.
The honest part
No alarming health scores. No “your Mac is at risk.” No subscription hiding the useful bits. Just an honest look at your disk, and the tools to do something about it.
A closer look
A look inside Dusty. Every category, path, and file stays in view until you're ready.
Safe by default
Dusty is built around one rule: nothing leaves your Mac without your say-so. Here's what that means in practice.
Every cleanup shows what will be removed, where it lives, and how much it frees — before anything moves. Confirm once, and only for what you selected.
App leftovers and duplicates go to Trash, so you can undo a mistake until it's emptied. Anything permanent is labelled clearly and confirmed separately.
Scans, file paths, and results never leave your Mac. No account, no analytics, no crash reports. The app doesn't know you exist.
No exaggerated health scores or “system at risk” warnings. Just the facts about your storage and settings, and honest notes about what can't be fixed.
Good to know
Straight answers, no small print. If something is still unclear, we're easy to reach.
Ask us anythingDusty is $29, paid once. That includes every feature and all future updates — no subscription, no trial countdown, and no locked features.
System and user caches, logs, temporary files, Mail downloads, Trash, Xcode DerivedData, Homebrew downloads, and package manager caches. Large and old files are listed for review but never selected for you.
Anything moved to Trash can be restored until you empty it. Some tools — permanent cleanup and Trash emptying, for example — delete right away, so read the confirmation. Backups are always a good idea. See removal behavior.
It's optional. Without it, Dusty still works, but macOS hides protected locations such as Mail downloads and some app containers. You can grant access in System Settings, and revoke it whenever you like.
No. Scans, file paths, and results stay on your Mac. Dusty has no telemetry and no account. The only network requests are release checks, and those happen only when you ask for them.
We won't promise that. Freeing disk space can help when your drive is nearly full, and reviewing startup items can trim boot time. But no app can reliably “boost RAM.” Dusty sticks to what it can actually do.
One-time purchase
Pay once, use it forever. No subscription, no account, no telemetry — just a lighter, clearer Mac.
