Let Diskbite measure the folders macOS protects, and understand the Hidden Space slice.
Common Diskbite questions.
Does Diskbite delete anything by itself?
No. Diskbite moves an item to the Trash only when you choose Move to Trash, and it asks first. The space comes back when you empty the Trash.
Why does Diskbite ask for access to my disk?
Diskbite runs in the App Sandbox, so macOS lets it read a disk or folder only after you allow it in the Open panel. Diskbite remembers the choice.
Do I need Full Disk Access?
No. It lets Diskbite measure folders macOS protects, such as Mail, Messages and Safari data. Without it, those folders are left out and the status bar says so.
Is it safe to clear what Suggestions lists?
Diskbite does not promise that. Each suggestion says what happens if you clear it, such as Xcode building the files again, so you can decide.
Is Diskbite available now?
Not yet. Diskbite is finishing development and is not listed on the Mac App Store yet.
