How DropSweep works

Scans your Downloads

Opens straight from the menu bar and reads what's piling up — no setup, no folders to configure.

Groups the clutter

Installers, archives, PDFs, screenshots and stray folders are sorted into clear categories at a glance.

One-click cleanup

Send everything you don't need to the Trash in a single tap, then get back to what you were doing.

Safe by design

Items move to the Trash — never permanently deleted — while hidden items at the top level of Downloads stay untouched.

Everything, sorted.

DropSweep recognises the files that usually pile up and keeps them grouped so you always know what you're clearing.
