TidyMacIn short
TidyMac is built for fixing a Mac you don’t know: it explains every part of the storage in plain English, ticks only items macOS recreates on its own, never touches photos, documents or system files, and moves everything to the Trash so nothing is lost by accident.
Sound familiar?
- A parent’s Mac that’s “full” for unknown reasons
- Fear of deleting family photos
- No time to supervise every click
What helps
Never touches Photos or Documents
They’re on a deny list in the code.
Old phone backups
Shows each family device and the date of its last backup.
Trash first
The worst case is dragging something back out.
Family licence
Five Macs.
A 10-minute fix
- Install TidyMac and allow Full Disk Access.
- Scan, then read the Overview: the big number is what's safe to free.
- Open iPhone and iPad backups to see which family devices are backed up here. More
- Review and clean. Leave the Trash for a week before emptying it.
