Improved Smart Mode in TrashMe 3.5

Today, we’re very happy to announce an update to our cleaner and uninstaller for macOS, TrashMe 3. This version 3.5 includes an improved Smart Mode to monitor the health of your Mac, and dozen of improvements and fixes.

Our smart mode gains a much-requested feature: the icon in the menu bar can be replaced by information on the battery level, on the processor use or temperature, or even on the memory pressure. So you always keep an eye on the most relevant information for you.

Among the other new features, the maintenance mode gains two new functions: the possibility of assigning an alternative icon for TrashMe (a version with rounded corners and a classic version which takes up the design of version 2 of TrashMe) and the possibility of adjusting the battery low power mode. In addition, it’s now possible to exclude an app update only for a specific version, instead of excluding the whole app. Very handy when you want to ignore only a particular update.

Finally, this new version of TrashMe improves the responsiveness of the app as well as support for the new Mac Studio. Many bugs, especially related to Bluetooth devices, have also been fixed.

10 best widgets for macOS Ventura

At the end of 2020, Apple released a major new version of its operating system: macOS Big Sur. This version introduces new wigdgets, that are completely different from the ones you might see in previous versions of macOS. They are still located in the notification center, but they now come in 3 different sizes so that you can choose the layout that suits you best. In 2023, macOS Ventura keeps the same widgets.

How to display your widgets

To view your widgets, simply click the date or time at the top right of the screen, or swipe left from the right edge of the trackpad with two fingers.

How to manage your widgets

Open the notification center (see above) then click on the « Edit widgets » button at the bottom. The list of available widgets will then be displayed in the center. On the left, you can filter widgets by app or even search for a widget.

To add a new widget, simply click on the preview of the relevant widget and it will be added to your notification center (or click on the button ). The small symbols allow to toggle the preview of the widget in its different sizes. Note that not all widgets offer different sizes and the information displayed may vary from size to size.

Some widgets can be customized: when you are in edit mode, just click on an existing widget to display the options. When you are simply viewing the notification center, right-click on the widget to display a menu that will give you the option to choose the size, remove the widget or even display customization options.

Improvements in TrashMe 3.4

Today we are launching an important update for our cleaner and uninstaller for macOS, TrashMe 3, with many new features, improvements and bug fixes. This version 3.4 is free and recommended for all our users.

Duplicates

Instead of deleting the duplicates one by one, you can now apply the same deletion rule to all of the duplicates found. The selection of files to delete can be viewed at any time at the bottom right of the window.

System updates

The dashboard will now display a badge on the macOS icon to let you know how many system updates are available. This is the best way not to miss any important updates. A single click on the macOS icon will bring up System Preferences for updating.

Keyboard shortcuts

We’ve added the ability to assign a custom keyboard shortcut to quickly open the smart mode menu, and thus take a quick look at the health of your Mac. In addition, it is now possible to use the shortcut Cmd + F to search in a list of files and Cmd + I to display information about an app.

General improvements

We have improved the uninstallation of apps by improving the algorithm for detecting related files and highlighting potentially related files (these are unchecked by default). Other improvements include Smart Mode, app updates and orphans.

Brand new dashboard in TrashMe 3

Our cleaner and uninstaller for macOS, TrashMe 3, has just been released with a brand new dashboard, many improvements and several bug fixes. This update 3.3.2 is free and recommended for all our users.

New dashboard

In this version, we’ve completely revamped the dashboard to show more information, like in our Smart Mode.

We feature two modes: basic information (default) with only some essential information, and Advanced information.

Its primary function is to detect and report various indicators of drive reliability with the intent of anticipating imminent hardware failures.

Welcome Apple Silicon M1

A few months ago, during the WWDC20 developer conference, Apple announced the arrival of new generation processors for Macs: Apple Silicon. These processors, derived from chips embedded in iPhone and iPad, then promise increased performance and reduced energy consumption.

The promise was kept quickly. A few weeks ago, Apple announced the first processor in this range: Apple M1. The MacBook Air and MacBook Pro 13-inch are the first to benefit from these chips.

However, this change also implies the return of universal apps, capable of running both on an Intel processor and on an Apple Silicon processor. This situation is well known to older Mac users: when Apple abandoned the PowerPC architecture in favor of Intel, universal apps then appeared. Those that had not been updated could continue to work thanks to Rosetta, an engine that translated PowerPC code into Intel code.

Today, we are in the same situation: Apple offers Rosetta 2 for Macs with an Apple M1 processor. Rosetta 2 allows you to run apps that have not yet been adapted to Apple Silicon.

At Jibapps, we have of course decided to adapt all our apps to these new processors. Today, we are proud to release a new universal version of TrashMe 3, which therefore runs natively on both Intel processors and Apple M1 processors.

Our other apps will be updated in the coming weeks.

TrashMe 3 now available on the Mac App Store

We’re very proud to announce that TrashMe 3, our cleaner and uninstaller for macOS, is now available on the Mac App Store. Version 3 of TrashMe has been launched few months ago with a new modern user interface, an improved speed in all tasks and many new features like a duplicate finder, a disk overview and menubar extension to monitor the health of your Mac.

We promised a release of TrashMe 3 on the Mac App Store before the end of the year, and here it is. This version has the same set of features than the regular version available on our webstore. However, due to Apple restrictions, we’ve been forced to adapt the app a little bit (check the differences in our Frequently Asked Questions).

Along with this announcement, we offer a new version 3.1.1 for all our users. This new version adds an history of all cleaning actions and improves the speed of the uninstaller tool. We’ve also fixed several issues reported back.

To celebrate the release of TrashMe 3 on the Mac App Store, we offer a discount for a limited time!

Announcing TrashMe 3

We’re very proud to annonce the release of TrashMe 3, a major version of our best-seller app for macOS. TrashMe 3 lets you clean your Mac and uninstall apps, with many new features and improvements.

Clean your Mac

TrashMe comes with advanced cleaning tools. You’ll be able to quickly identify junk files (large and old files, incomplete downloads, installer packages, Windows files…) and to clean system files like apps caches, Xcode files and orphaned files. Version 3 of TrashMe finds even more files than before, to let you recover more space on your Mac.

Manage your apps

TrashMe uninstaller algorithm has been perfected over the years to find almost all related files that need to be removed along with the app bundle. We’ve greatly improved speed and intuitiveness: TrashMe 3 will find related files 3 times faster than previous version and uninstall process is easier with less steps to remove an app. For apps you want to keep on your Mac, we added a « search for updates » feature, to regularly check for updates for all apps installed on your Mac, even those from the Mac App Store. And you can still manage a list of favorite apps to securely store registration information and documents.

Find duplicate files

It happens frequently that you duplicate documents or photos, without even modifying the copy. These versions pile up on your hard drive to the point that they sometimes take up a lot of space. TrashMe allows you to scan a folder for duplicates so that you can compare all versions and then decide which ones should be removed.

Get an overview of your disk usage

Another new feature of TrashMe 3 is an interactive map that lets you visually discover the space occupied by files and folders on your Mac. Navigate through the disk hierarchy, identify and select files and folders you don’t need anymore, and TrashMe will delete them for you.

Monitor your system

Our Smart Mode feature lets you monitor your system activity, like CPU load & temperature, memory usage, battery status, network configuration… right in your system menubar. Smart mode will also detect any app you put in the Trash to offer a clean uninstall, and will display an alert when your Trash is full.
 
 
TrashMe 3 is available today as a Free Download with a 15 days trial period.
People can buy it on our webstore with a special and limited launch price. It will also be available on the Mac App Store later this year. People having bought previous version of TrashMe can upgrade with a discounted price, whatever the version they own (Mac App Store or not).
