Analyze

See what's taking up your disk.

Analyze maps your whole disk so the biggest folders stand out, and fills in sizes while it scans. Open any folder, find a file by name, and see what grew since last time.

Analyze showing the Applications folder as a map and a list, with each app's size and share, and how much the folder changed since the last scan.

Everything on your disk, sized.

Disk map

Every folder is a tile sized by the space it uses, so the biggest ones stand out at a glance.

List with shares

The same folder as a list, with each item's size and its share of the folder.

Biggest Files

The largest files anywhere on the disk, in one list.

Find files

Search any file or folder by name as you type, hidden folders included.

What grew

After a second scan, Analyze shows which folders grew or shrank and by how much.

Get Info

Size on disk, space saved by compression, and the largest items inside any folder. Press ⌘I.

How it works

Three steps, no surprises.

  1. 1

    Open Analyze

    The scan starts on its own and shows results while it runs.

  2. 2

    Go deeper

    Click a folder to open it. The path at the top takes you back to any level.

  3. 3

    Act on what you find

    Right-click any item to Quick Look it, reveal it in Finder, get info or move it to the Trash.

Open any folder to go deeper. The path at the top takes you back.

Analyze inside the Library folder: Application Support, Developer and Caches are the largest tiles.
Safe by design

You stay in control.

  • Measuring only reads; nothing changes until you choose an action.
  • Folders macOS protects aren't opened unless you allow it with Get exact sizes.
  • Anything you remove goes to the Trash, and Recover files puts it back.
  • Connected drives are measured too, and ejecting one stops its scan cleanly.
FAQ

Questions.

Why do some sizes end with a plus sign?

A plus means the size is a lower bound: a folder inside couldn't be read because macOS protects it. Get exact sizes lets you choose folders to measure, or turn on Full Disk Access.

Does Analyze need Full Disk Access?

No. Analyze works without it and marks the folders it couldn't read. Full Disk Access, or choosing folders yourself, makes those sizes exact.

Can Analyze scan an external drive?

Yes. Connected drives appear in Analyze, and each one is measured on its own.
