Why Stale
Know what to keep.
Know what to keep.
Clear what you don't.
One index of your whole Mac, sorted by when you last used each thing.
Sorted by last use
Every folder lands in this week, this month, the last six months, over a year, or never opened, using the "last opened" dates macOS already keeps.

Safe to clean up
The space you can actually get back, ready to review. Everything goes to the Trash, never straight to deletion.

Private by design
Stale reads only sizes and dates. Nothing leaves your Mac: no account, no analytics.
Native and up to date
A small, signed and notarized Mac app for Apple silicon and Intel. Updates install themselves.
