DevCleaner

If you’re an iOS/macOS developer or QA engineer running Xcode on an Apple Silicon or Intel Mac, DevCleaner is a must-have tool. It helps you instantly reclaim tens of gigabytes by safely removing outdated build artifacts, device symbols, and derived data—no scripting required.

🔑 Key Features:

• Device Support Cleanup: Automatically identifies and removes old device symbol files—each taking 2–5 GB—and shows only the latest version to help recover significant disk space.
• Archive Management: Lists Xcode archives and lets you inspect and delete outdated builds that are no longer needed for App Store distribution or crash symbolication.
• Derived Data & Documentation Cache Removal Clears stale DerivedData, documentation caches, old simulator logs, and other auto-generated files that accumulate over time.
• Interactive GUI + CLI Support: Choose what to delete via an intuitive macOS App GUI, or integrate cleanup into scripts and CI workflows with the provided command-line tool.
• Scheduled Clean Reminders: Set recurring reminders to perform scans, ensuring your system stays optimized without manual oversight.
• Broad Compatibility: Supports macOS 13 (Sonoma) and above in the latest v2.7.1 release, with previous versions available for earlier macOS support.

🚀 Benefits for Developers & QA Engineers.

• Recover Massive Disk Space – Reclaim tens of GBs from caches and symbols that Xcode leaves behind.
• Improve Build Stability – Cleaning DerivedData and old logs can reduce build errors, flaky tests, and intermittent issues.
• Streamline CI Environments – Use the CLI tool in CI/CD pipelines to maintain build agent hygiene automatically.
• Stay In Control – Selection-based deletion ensures you never remove files unintentionally.

DevCleaner is a powerful, user-friendly tool that tackles Xcode’s hidden storage bloat—ideal for anyone managing apps on macOS. Free, open-source, and backed by a strong track record, it’s an essential addition to your development toolkit.
