The new CleanMyMac (UI)

CleanMyMac is an all-in-one utility that helps you keep your Mac clean and healthy. Using the app, you can delete useless files that pile up over time and waste valuable disk space, while slowing down your system. The new version of the software adds an impressively looking user interface, as well as significantly improved performance. Tiger-specific tweaks have been made as well.

Unlike simpler “cleaning” solutions, CleanMyMac combines features such as the ability to slim down universal binaries, delete unneeded languages, logs and caches, quick erase, application uninstallation, and the capability of fully erasing the trash left from buried applications. The main benefit of using CleanMyMac is that your Mac will work faster and smoother after running the tool.

Now, thanks to the 1.5.0 update, CleanMyMac looks like a totally new piece of software, and even acts like one too. New cleaner features have been added along with a few small usability tweaks. Memory consumption is down to a minimum, while crashes during clean in languages and universal binaries have been fixed. Lastly, MacPaw has fixed a “White background” bug on Tiger machines, according to the changelog.

Having tested the new version ourselves, we can happily say the software handles much better, and much faster than before, from a faster launching of the application, to the “remove” feature, which is now more selective and very well organized. Another new addition the release notes seem to skip is the actual application icon, which has been redesigned as well.

Readers can download the trial version of CleanMyMac right now and remove 200Mb of junk. The company has also announced CleanMyMac 2, a major update to the maintenance app, scheduled to arrive very soon. Existing users will be able to apply the update for free, while its open architecture will allow developers to write custom plugins.

Update: developer MacPaw has also cut the price of CleanMyMac to $29.95 (single-user license - lifetime). There is also the option to purchase a six-month license for $14.95. The CleanMyMac + MacHider bundle is still available, and is 10 bucks cheaper now ($39.95).

Excellent application. Just does what it says. The new UI looks very mature now. Can't wait for the 2nd edition!
Too pricey though :(
