PureMac launches as free offline CleanMyMac alternative

PureMac is a native SwiftUI macOS cleaner and app uninstaller that runs fully offline with zero telemetry. The release focuses on practical cleanup features that developers actually use, including scheduled cleaning, purgeable-space detection, Time Machine snapshot-related disk cleanup, and cache removal for Xcode and Homebrew.

// ANALYSIS

Hot take: this is a sharp, trust-first utility release, not another bloated Mac cleaner with subscription pressure and background tracking.

–Native SwiftUI app manager and system cleaner for macOS
–Offline-only operation with no telemetry or data collection
–Added scheduled auto-cleaning and purgeable-space cleanup
–Targets developer pain points like Xcode DerivedData, archives, simulators, and Homebrew caches
–The “free, open-source, signed and notarized” positioning is the main differentiator
