AppCleaner is a lightweight utility for macOS that performs thorough application removal by detecting and deleting not only the app itself but also all associated files such as preferences, caches, and other system remnants that would normally be left behind by simple drag-to-trash uninstallation. It is widely used by Mac users who frequently install and uninstall applications and want to keep their system clean and clutter-free. The app features a simple drag-and-drop interface, a list mode for browsing installed applications, and a smart delete feature that can prompt users when applications are moved to the Trash. A native Apple Silicon build has been confirmed running on Macs in the Rosetta Check community.
