Spot malware and remove every trace

Slow performance, pop-ups that won't disappear, a fan running fast for no clear reason — when your Mac is acting strange, you want to know what's behind it. CleanMyMac scans for adware, spyware, cryptominers, and other threats, then removes both the threat and the hidden components that quietly restart it whenever you reboot.

See what your apps can access

Apps need certain permissions to be useful — access to your camera, microphone, location, and files among them. You've granted permissions plenty of times over the years, and remembering what each app can access isn't realistic. CleanMyMac shows all app permissions in one place so you can keep what's essential and revoke the rest.

Clear what your browsers know about you

Your browsers keep a record of your browsing history, cookies, and autofill entries. None of it is alarming on its own, but together it adds up to a clear picture of you. CleanMyMac shows everything stored across Safari, Chrome, Firefox, and the rest, so you can clear it in a few clicks. It reaches beyond browsers too, clearing saved Wi-Fi networks and the list of recent items your Mac keeps.

Catch a bad file while it's still just a file

Mac malware often disguises itself as software you'd actually want — a familiar installer, a useful utility, a free version of a paid app. If something you download feels off, CleanMyMac scans the file and tells you whether it's safe.
