See the trail your Mac keeps
Trailsift shows where your Mac keeps traces of what you browse, download and view: browser histories, the download log, thumbnails, recent items, app caches and more. Each finding says what it is, where it lives and how to clear it.
For Mac, macOS 14 Sonoma or later.
- It only readsThe audit never deletes, moves or changes anything. Clean-up, in Pro, only happens after you see exactly what goes and confirm.
- Nothing leaves your MacNo account, no analytics, no tracking. The app makes no network connections of its own.
- Its method is openEvery place it looks is listed, with why it matters and how to clear it yourself.
Free
The full audit of every place macOS lets an app read: the macOS download log, Chrome, Brave, Edge, Arc and Firefox, Tor Browser leftovers, recent items, saved windows, media players, messaging apps, iCloud and backups. Where macOS protects a place, the free audit still tells you something is there.
