Ditch is an innovative macOS utility that transforms your MacBook's notch into a functional app cleaner. This open-source tool enables users to completely uninstall applications by simply dragging them to the notch area. It performs deep cleaning by removing not just the main application but also associated caches, preferences, containers, logs, and other leftover files across multiple system directories.
Key Features:
- Notch-native interface: The cleaner appears when you drag an app toward the notch and hides when done
- Comprehensive file removal: Scans and cleans files from ~/Library/Application Support, ~/Library/Caches, ~/Library/Preferences, ~/Library/Containers, and more
- File preview system: Shows exactly what will be removed before confirmation
- Safe deletion: All removed files go to Trash for potential restoration
- Haptic feedback: Provides tactile responses during drag, drop, and clean operations
- Launch at login: Runs automatically in the background
- Ultra lightweight: Built with pure Swift, under 1MB in size
Use Cases:
- For macOS users who want to completely remove applications and all associated files
- Developers testing applications who need clean uninstalls between tests
- Users concerned about digital clutter and leftover files
- Anyone with a notched MacBook looking to utilize that space functionally
