DevPurge: Storage Cleaner
Clear Xcode & dev cache bloat
Only for Mac
$9.99 · In‑App Purchases
Mac
New in 1.1: a guided cleanup. Scan your Mac, drop Safe items into the Cleanup Bucket, review, and free up gigabytes. Scans are always free.
DevPurge finds the gigabytes your Mac forgot about and lets you decide what goes.
Xcode builds, old simulators, package caches, Docker images and app leftovers quietly fill up a Mac. DevPurge scans for them, explains what each one is, rates how safe it is to remove, and puts you in charge of the cleanup.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Scan. A read-only scan takes about a minute. Nothing changes on your Mac.
2. Fill your bucket. Tick what you want gone, or add every item rated Safe in one click.
3. Clean. Review the bucket, then move everything to the Trash so you can always undo.
WHAT DEVPURGE LOOKS FOR
• Developer bloat: Xcode DerivedData, iOS DeviceSupport, simulator devices and runtimes, CocoaPods, node_modules, Gradle and Android build caches
• Package manager caches: npm, Yarn, pnpm, pip, Conda, Homebrew, Cargo, Go and Ruby gems
• AI model caches: Ollama, Hugging Face and LM Studio
• App and browser caches: Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Arc, Slack, Discord, Spotify, Figma and more
• Hidden “System Data”: logs, crash reports, old installers and leftovers from deleted apps
• Virtual machines, Mail and Messages attachments, media caches and large forgotten files
• Your largest folders, for a quick look at where space went
BUILT TO BE SAFE
• Every item is rated Safe to Delete, Use Caution or Risky.
• Nothing is removed until you review your Cleanup Bucket.
• Items go to the Trash by default, so you can restore anything.
• Critical system locations are never touched.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
DevPurge works entirely on your Mac. It never uploads your files or file names, has no analytics and no ads.
FREE AND PRO
Scans are always free and unlimited, and the free plan cleans up to 5 GB every month. DevPurge Pro removes the monthly limit and adds external drive cleaning and permanent delete. Pro is available as a yearly subscription or a one-time lifetime purchase.
Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings.
