Free up space
on your Mac.

chippytea is an ultra-performant, native macOS app that clears space on your Mac. Built with SwiftUI and Rust, it helps you find old build folders, project dependencies and installers you may no longer need. Review their estimated sizes, see what removing them means, and choose what to keep or remove.

An illustrated demo using fictional files and example cleanup results. Choose Clean up to review an item. Nothing on your Mac is scanned or changed.

How it works

Scan folders you choose for old build files, dependencies and installers.

Review each suggestion, its estimated size and what removing it would mean.

Move files to Trash, or choose permanent removal for eligible build files and dependencies. Downloads and installers are Trash-only.

Review the outcome in the cleanup history. Files in Trash still take up space.

About the chip counter

The chips are a decorative counter for space saved. Eligible permanent cleanup adds one chip per 100 MB of conservatively credited space. Smaller amounts carry forward.

Chips stay on your Mac and have no monetary value. Moving files to Trash adds no chips; estimated sizes never update the counter.
