Uninstall Mac apps.
Leave nothing behind.
Dragging an app to the Trash leaves its files behind in your Library: caches, settings, support files and more. Nexus Clean removes each app together with those files, and everything goes to the Trash first, so you can always put it back.

How to uninstall an app on Mac, completely.
Open Apps & leftovers
Open Nexus Clean, choose Apps & leftovers and scan. It lists your apps and any leftovers it finds.

Select an app to see the app itself and every file it keeps in your Library. Nothing is ticked until you choose.
Move to Trash
Everything goes to the Trash together. Apps that are open are skipped, and Put Back brings it all back.
Uninstalling on a Mac
Is dragging an app to the Trash enough?
It removes the app, but most apps also keep files in your Library: caches, preferences, saved state, support files and containers. These stay behind and can add up to gigabytes. Nexus Clean finds and removes them with the app.
Where do Mac apps leave files behind?
Mostly in your Library folder: Application Support, Caches, Preferences, Containers, Group Containers, Logs and Saved Application State. Nexus Clean checks these for each app.
Can I undo an uninstall?
Yes. Everything goes to the Trash first, and Put Back All restores the app and its files where they were.
Does it work on Intel Macs?
No. Nexus Clean is made for Macs with Apple silicon (M1 or later), running macOS 14 Sonoma or later.
