DevCleaner for Xcode
DevCleaner for Xcode helps you inspect and remove accumulated Xcode files, especially if you develop on a Mac with limited SSD storage.
by One Minute Games
What you get
You get storage back by clearing accumulated Xcode files.
You can reclaim storage taken up by Xcode’s auto-generated files, caches, and symbols. These files can accumulate in your ~/Library/Developer folder without being cleared over time, sometimes occupying tens of gigabytes. If your Mac has a small SSD, removing that buildup can give you more room for other files.
You can inspect the generated files before deciding whether to clean them, rather than removing them without reviewing them. DevCleaner can also remind you to scan again later, so you don’t have to remember to check for new buildup yourself.
If you already use scripts for maintenance, you can add Xcode cleanup to that routine through the included command-line tool. You get a choice between reviewing files in the app and including cleaning in your scripted workflow.
