Press and brand assets

Everything on this page may be republished without asking — in a review, a directory listing or an article. Each asset's address is printed beside it, because the usual reason to be here is a form that wants a URL rather than a file. The launch press release is first, then the assets.

Anything missing, or a version of an image you need at another size? Write to support@caddora.ie and it will be made.

Press release

Issued 6 October 2026. Republish it whole, quote the founder, or lift a sentence — it is here to be used, and needs no permission. This is the address to link from an article or a press-release channel.

Download links

Both are direct HTTPS links to the same notarised disk image, served from Cloudflare R2, with no landing page or redirect in between.

Always the newest build

https://downloads.refreshyourmac.com/RefreshYourMac.dmgPermanent. This URL is what the site's own Download button uses, and it never has to be updated.

Version 1.2j, immutable

https://downloads.refreshyourmac.com/RefreshYourMac-1.2j.dmgA versioned URL never names two different files, so it is safe to mirror or cache. It will not follow future releases.

Screenshots

PNG, taken on 8 October 2026 on a real Mac running the real app. The scan results in them are the app's sample data, the kind of figures a busy Mac with Xcode on it shows the first time it is scanned, so no personal file name appears; the CPU and memory readings are that Mac's own. The site serves these as WebP; these are the same images in PNG, for anywhere that does not take WebP.

Nightfall

The default skin: dark, with cyan and violet glows. See it on the skins page.

Hibernia Glass

The light skin, with Apple's Liquid Glass on macOS 26. The same views and the same sample figures as Nightfall, so the two can sit side by side. See it on the skins page.

Demo video

32 seconds, six screens, captions on screen and no voiceover, published 4 October 2026: Free up space on your Mac safely. Link or embed it from YouTube; it is built from the same screenshots as above.

Clips to cut with

Silent MP4s, recorded on 8 October 2026, for editors who want to cut the app into their own video. No cursor and no captions.

Descriptions

Written to the lengths listing forms ask for. Counts include spaces.

A Mac cleaner that measures first

Short — 225 characters

RefreshYourMac is a Mac cleaner that measures before it deletes. Scanning is free: it looks in 45 places, rates each one for how safe it is to remove, and deletes nothing without asking. No account, no telemetry. €39.99 once.

Long — 986 characters

RefreshYourMac is a disk-cleanup app for macOS, built on one idea: measure first, then let you decide. Scanning is free and stays free. It looks in 45 places on your own Mac — caches, logs, Xcode DerivedData and simulator runtimes, package caches, the leftovers of AI coding tools, duplicates and unused apps — and rates every one Safe to Remove, Review, Move to Backup or Protected. The rating decides what the buttons may do, so your own files cannot be swept up in a bulk clean, and nothing is deleted without asking. Scheduled daily cleaning only ever takes Safe to Remove categories. It will not purge memory or scan for malware: it shows how much memory is genuinely spare, and reports XProtect's signature version and Gatekeeper's state. It is a notarised direct download rather than a Mac App Store app, because 41 of the 45 categories are unreachable inside Apple's sandbox. No account, no telemetry. €39.99 once or €19.99 a year. macOS 15 or later. Made in Ireland by Caddora.

Top five features

For the short feature list a listing form asks for. The fuller picture — what each safety level means, what the app will not do and why — is on the pages linked in the footer.

1. Scanning is free, and it measures before it deletes

   The scan lists every item it found, how big it is and which app or tool put it there, across all 45 categories, before a licence is needed. The licence buys the cleaning, never the looking.

2. Four safety levels, and the rating decides what the buttons may do

   Every category is rated Safe to Remove, Review, Move to Backup or Protected. That rating is enforced rather than advisory, which is what stops your own files being swept up by a bulk clean.

3. It finds what most cleaners do not look for

   Xcode DerivedData, old simulator runtimes, iOS device support, package manager caches, and the scratch folders and histories left behind by AI coding tools — alongside the usual caches, logs, duplicates, large files and unused apps.

4. Scheduled daily cleaning that can only take the safe things

   It runs on Safe to Remove categories and nothing else: never your own files, never anything that needs your password, and never the Trash.

5. No account, no telemetry, one payment

   There is nothing to sign into and nothing about your Mac's contents leaves it. €39.99 buys a licence outright, or €19.99 a year for anyone who would rather start smaller.

The facts

Listings

Where RefreshYourMac is already listed, and the badge each directory issues. Every badge is served from this domain rather than from the directory, so carrying one does not report a reader back to them — the reason is written out beside LISTINGS in src/data/site.ts. A directory whose listing is not published yet carries its badge in the footer and has nothing to link here, so it is not in this list.

Three things it is easy to get wrong

Not house style — these are the claims the app deliberately does not make, and a listing that makes them for it describes a different product.

• It is not an antivirus and does not remove malware. It reports what macOS already does — XProtect's signature version and whether Gatekeeper is on — and says so.
• It does not purge or free memory. It shows how much memory is genuinely spare, on the argument that purging it mostly moves a number.
• It promises no particular amount of space. Any figure published is a measurement of one named Mac on a named date, never a claim about the reader's.

RefreshYourMac is sold from this site only. If that changes — a sandboxed App Store edition is built but not released — this page will say so before anywhere else does.
