DaisyDisk for Mac

DaisyDisk for Mac allows you to visualize your disk usage and free up disk space by quickly finding and deleting big unused files.

The program scans your disk and displays its content as a sector diagram where the biggest files and folders at once become obvious. To drill down to a folder, just click on a segment.

To bubble up, click in the center. Move the mouse over the diagram and see the name and path of each file, and enclosed files (if any). Hit Space to quickly preview file content, without launching another application.

In this way, walk around your disk and drag-and-drop all unneeded files into the "collector". Expand the collector to check its contents. When done, clean it up with a single click.

While working on your Mac you create and download lots of files, but rarely delete anything. At some point you find that your startup disk is full. What to do? Well, a larger disk will cost you a few hundred dollars.

Yearly fee for a cloud storage is about the same. Or simply get DaisyDisk at a fraction of the price and make plenty of space by removing old junk.

DaisyDisk for macOS also gives you a great overview of all connected disks, be it Macintosh HD, Thunderbolt disk, flash, network storage, you name it. All displayed data are updated in real time, so you can always tell if there's enough space to install a new game or download an HD movie.

It's easy. Just scan a disk and see all of your files and folders as a visual interactive map. Find an unusually large file. Preview its content, and delete if you don't need it anymore.
