Smart Downloads organizer
Only for Mac

Mac
Downloads pile up fast. Tidy Downloads with smart clusters, byte-for-byte duplicates, and empty-folder cleanup.
Downloads used to be a temporary stop. Now it’s where everything ends up—and never leaves.
Drawer Sweep is a native macOS app that turns your chaotic Downloads folder into a smart staging area. It scans your files, groups related items into clear clusters, surfaces exact duplicates, and tucks old clutter into an archive folder—without ever touching anything outside Downloads.
You get the feeling of a clean slate, without the fear of losing something important.
Turn thousands of files into a few clear clusters
Stop scrolling through endless filenames you don’t recognize.
Drawer Sweep analyzes your Downloads folder and groups related files into clusters—folders created inside Downloads that actually make sense when you look at them.
• Files with similar names are grouped automatically (e.g., invoice exports, bank statements, reports).
• If filenames aren’t helpful, Drawer Sweep can read document text with on‑device OCR and use that to cluster similar items.
• Tiny one‑off groups can be sent to an Unsorted folder so your Downloads root doesn’t fill up with hundreds of tiny folders.
A real example: 2,935 loose files turned into just 162 meaningful clusters. No more of the “I’ll deal with this later”.
Find and remove true duplicates, not just look‑alikes
Renamed copies and duplicate downloads slowly drain your space and attention.
Drawer Sweep identifies exact duplicates by comparing both file size and a cryptographic hash, not just filenames. That means:
• Renamed copies are still caught.
• Only truly identical files are suggested as duplicates.
You choose whether to keep the newest, the oldest, or hand‑pick which copies to keep. The rest go to the macOS Trash—never permanently deleted in the background.
Fast, native, and private
Drawer Sweep is built specifically for macOS.
• Native Swift/SwiftUI interface, tuned for macOS Sequoia and later.
• On‑device text recognition using Apple’s frameworks—no uploads, no external services.
• Security‑scoped access to Downloads, with a clear permission flow the first time you run it.
Who it’s for
Drawer Sweep is ideal if:
• Your Downloads folder has quietly grown into thousands of mixed files.
• You keep telling yourself you’ll “clean it up later” and never do.
• You want a one‑time deep clean and an easy way to keep things organized afterward.
If you’ve ever opened Downloads, sighed, and closed it again, this app was built for you.
Run one sweep. Watch 2,000+ files collapse into sane, named clusters. Then decide what to keep—with the confidence that nothing happens without your say‑so.
