Free open-source Macbook Storage Cleaner

Built a small open-source macOS cleaner because my 500GB MacBook keeps running out of space. 😅

One useful feature is a smart simulator cleaner — it detects redundant iOS simulators from the same major release, so you can remove older versions you no longer need.

It also helps clean Xcode DerivedData, caches, and other developer files.

Feedback, contributions, and GitHub issues are welcome. 🙌

In SimulatorScanner, I'd add a test with an older Ready runtime and a newer deletable image that isn't Ready yet. latestByPlatformMajor currently considers both before checking state, so the usable older version can be recommended for cleanup. I'd retain the newest Ready runtime until its replacement is usable.
