Three fictional apps, one Update All action.

Local simulation only. Nothing is scanned, installed or changed on your Mac.

Preparing for release. Not yet available to download or purchase. Ask the developer a question.

Fewer update chores

Review available updates together. Start eligible updates with Update All.

For direct app updates, KeepNeat normally keeps the previous copy in the Trash and warns when that recovery option is unavailable.

App Store updates and installer packages replace apps themselves and can need extra steps. Certificate checks may stop an update for review. KeepNeat explains the handoff before you start.

Clean up.
Keep a way back.

Remove apps with their leftovers. Find old installers, duplicates and files left behind by apps you’ve already deleted.

Review what’s going, then make the change. Files go to the Trash where supported; permanent actions say so and ask first.

Recently Removed

Example Archive.zipIn the Trash
See recovery options

While an item is still in the Trash, try Put Back in Recently Removed or Finder. Restore can be blocked if its original location is occupied.

KeepNeat’s history normally covers 90 days. That doesn’t guarantee a file is still in the Trash.

Cloud files and permanent actions

Moving a synced cloud file to the Trash warns that your cloud drive may remove it across synced devices. Remove Download only frees local space and keeps the file in the cloud.

Permanent actions can’t be undone. These include emptying the Trash, removing an Ollama model while Ollama is open, removing local Time Machine snapshots, and cleaning up old Homebrew downloads.

Your scans stay
on your Mac

No KeepNeat account. No ads, tracking or app analytics. KeepNeat doesn’t upload your files or scan results to us.

KeepNeat goes online for app updates and downloads, app descriptions, checks you start and license checks. Some versions also fetch process notes daily. The optional Look Up on the Web… feature asks you to approve its query, then separately approve any result pages.

Read the Privacy Policy for details, including the website, payments and support email.

One purchase,
three Macs

Try every feature free for 14 days when KeepNeat is released. The trial is tracked locally on your Mac.

After the trial, scanning and information stay free. Changes, like updating apps or moving files to the Trash, need a license key.

US$29 one-time

Planned release price

  • Up to 3 Macs you own and personally use, activated at once.

Not yet available to download or purchase.

Payments and license keys will be handled by Lemon Squeezy, the merchant of record. Read the Terms of Use, including the refund policy.

A person you can email
