About This App

AppDelete is a utility for removing applications from macOS. It specializes in clean uninstallation by detecting and deleting associated application files, preferences, caches and support files that are normally left behind when using standard drag-and-drop removal. Users drag an app onto AppDelete or select it from the app list, and the tool performs a thorough deletion. It targets users who want to completely remove software without leaving traces or taking up extra disk space.

AppDelete has been discontinued by its developer and was last updated in 2017. The latest version 4.3.3 is an Intel-only build with no native Apple Silicon support, and there is no evidence the developer plans to release an update. Since Apple is removing Rosetta 2 support in macOS 28 (September 2028), this app will stop launching entirely on that release and any subsequent macOS version. The app currently runs under Rosetta 2 emulation on M-series Macs, but you should plan to transition to an alternative before the deadline. For straightforward app removal, the built-in Finder (drag to Trash) handles most cases adequately on modern macOS. If you need more thorough cleanup of preference files and caches, AppShelf, Cleaner Pro, or CleanMyMac X are actively maintained native alternatives with more comprehensive cleanup features. Consider switching to one of these before upgrading to macOS 28.
