General cleaners don't know what a simulator runtime is. DaisyDisk and CleanMyMac see a mysterious 100GB in ~/Library/Developer. DevSweep knows exactly what's in there — what's safe to delete because it regenerates, and what isn't because it re-downloads at 16GB a pop.

What it sweeps

Xcode DerivedData

Often tens of gigabytes, rebuilt automatically on your next build. Preselected — the classic safe win.

iOS DeviceSupport

Debug symbols for every iOS version you've ever plugged in. Keeps the newest per device, flags the rest.

Simulator runtimes

Old iOS/watchOS runtimes at ~16GB each. Never preselected — you decide, because re-downloading hurts.

Simulator caches

User and system simulator caches plus unavailable simulators, cleared with Apple's own simctl.

Package caches

npm, SwiftPM, pip, CocoaPods, Gradle, Playwright, and Homebrew caches — all re-downloaded on demand.

AI model caches

Sees your Hugging Face and Ollama model folders, but never preselects them — big models are slow to re-pull.

Safe by design. Scanning never touches your disk — it only measures. Risky items are never preselected, everything shows its real size before you commit, and a confirmation dialog stands between you and every deletion. The full source is on GitHub, so you can verify all of it.
