Your Mac knows what's wrong. Now you will too.

Your machine, back at full speed. Three native Mac utilities — finished and launching first by email — that turn raw battery, storage, and cleanup data into one straight answer: what is normal, what is safe, and what needs action.

Every app is a free download. No account. No subscription. Nothing leaves your Mac.

Quick answers for people and search

What SwoopByte is, in plain terms.

AI answers, search snippets, and humans all need the same thing: a short, exact explanation of what exists now, what is coming next, and why this is different from yet another cleaner pitch.

What is SwoopByte?

SwoopByte is a family of native Mac utilities for battery health, app uninstalling, disk cleanup, and practical Mac maintenance. Each app explains what it found before asking you to act.

Which apps are available now?

Three are finished: SwoopByte Battery, SwoopByte Uninstaller, and SwoopByte Disk — all native to Apple Silicon Macs on macOS 14 or later, with download links going out by email. A fourth, SwoopByte Permissions, is in final testing with an open waitlist.

What does SwoopByte cost?

SwoopByte Battery is completely free, with no Pro tier. Uninstaller, Disk, and Permissions are free to use, with optional one-time Pro upgrades — $12.99, $14.99, and $19.99. No subscription required for any current app.

How is it different from cleaner suites?

SwoopByte keeps one focused job per app. Cleanup and removal flows show a preview first, protect shared files, and avoid fake threat counts or vague junk claims.

The promise

Closer to a precision instrument than a cleaner carnival.

No invented urgency, no silent deletes, no red for ordinary states. That is the whole point.

01

Verdict first

Know in one second whether you're fine, should watch, or need to act.

02

Preview before action

Every cleanup and removal starts with a plain-language list of what will change.

Safety features stay free. Recovery always comes first.

04

Local by design

Zero network calls in Battery today. Your Mac's data stays on your Mac.

Free first

Every app is a free download. Pro is optional — and one-time.

The core job in every SwoopByte app is free, forever — verdicts, previews, and every safety feature included. Pro exists only where there is real extra power to add, and it is a one-time purchase, never a subscription.

Battery

Completely free. No Pro tier at all — the verdict, trend history, and alerts are the whole app.

Uninstaller

Free: uninstall any app with the full leftover preview. Pro, one-time $12.99: remove whole dev toolchains macOS has no uninstaller for.

Disk

Free: the Space Map, System Data breakdown, and safe cache clean. Pro, one-time $14.99: reclaim actions, duplicate removal, history.

Permissions

Audit and safety free. Pro, one-time $19.99: Permission Drift and history. In final testing — waitlist open.

Never paywalled

Safety features, previews, and reversible removals stay free in every app.

Built native

Made for the Mac on your desk, not a cross-platform lowest common denominator.

Swift and SwiftUI, menu-bar first, Apple Silicon native. Small downloads, no Electron, and interface conventions your Mac already taught you.
