BroomKit is a native macOS disk cleaner and app uninstaller built for transparency and safety. It scans the entire home folder across 16 categories — app caches, package caches, dependency folders, simulators, logs, duplicates, old installers, and more — and displays exactly what it found and where before any payment is required.
The free version provides a full disk scan, an interactive treemap visualisation of disk usage, a large and old file finder, and per-file path browsing — permanently free with no account or credit card needed. A one-time licence unlocks Reclaim, which moves selected junk to Trash and empties it, along with an App Uninstaller that finds support files by exact bundle identifier across multiple Library directories.
Safety is central to the design. All removals go to Trash rather than being directly unlinked, inferred items start unchecked, every file is shown with its full path before anything moves, and no administrator password is requested. Developer machines receive dedicated attention: package manager caches for npm, pnpm, and pip, Xcode DerivedData and simulators, and Docker-related data are all handled.
BroomKit runs natively on macOS 14 and later on both Apple Silicon and Intel Macs. It is notarized by Apple and Developer ID signed. The entire scan runs on-device with no file paths or results transmitted externally.
