App Store release coming soon

Know what's actually happening on your Mac.

MacSense checks your Mac's processor, memory, storage, heat and network, and tells you in plain English what's going on and what to do about it. Simple mode keeps it to the essentials; Advanced shows every number. One purchase also includes MacSense Pro, with sensor-level detail, on up to five Macs.

“Why is my Mac slow?”: names the app or problem behind it and offers a fix
Diagnose: a plain-English health check that says what each “Fine” means, with a PDF to share
Apps: the apps you opened, busiest first, with one sentence saying which one to look at
Safe cleanup that moves things to the Trash, with Undo in Recently Cleaned
History, a timeline, and an optional weekly check-up
A customizable menu bar, widgets, Shortcuts and alerts
Built-in help, including the words you’ll see (CPU, swap, purgeable space…) explained

How it works

From the App Store to Pro in three steps.

Buy MacSense on the App Store. It's a one-time purchase — no subscription.
Open Unlock Pro and press Get MacSense Pro. MacSense opens the download page on this site and copies your unlock code.
Drag it to Applications, then press Open MacSense Pro in MacSense. Your unlock code is already filled in. Press Activate, and it works on up to five of your Macs.

Privacy you can check

Zero tracking. Every request logged.

No account, no tracking, no analytics and no ads. Your files, app list and readings never leave your Mac. Settings › Privacy lists every time MacSense reached the internet and exactly what it sent. That happens only when:

You get your Pro code (App Store edition): Apple’s signed proof of purchase. No name or email.
Pro activates or confirms its activation: your code, the Mac’s hardware ID, its name and model, and the macOS and MacSense versions, so you can see which Macs use your code.
Pro checks for updates, once a day, and you can turn that off.
You run a network tool, such as the speed test or Public IP lookup.

Details are in our privacy policy.
