DeskMinder
Desktop visibility, without automation
A tiny menu-bar app that helps you keep your Mac desktop tidy — without ever moving or deleting anything automatically.
Review old files, sort them safely, and clean up in seconds.
✨ What DeskMinder Does
- Detects old files sitting on your desktop
- Lets you filter by minimum age (e.g., older than 5 days)
- Shows clear stats (total items, size, oldest file…)
- Offers quick manual cleanup actions
- Keeps “ignored” files out of your way
- Lives quietly in the macOS menu bar, always ready
Fully manual, fully safe — you stay in control.
🧹 Clean Up, Your Way
DeskMinder helps you quickly review and delete files you no longer need.
A simple assisted workflow:
- See which files haven’t been touched in a while
- Select what you want to delete
- Clear the clutter
No automation. No surprises. Just clarity.
👤 Who this is probably for
- You use your Desktop as a temporary inbox
- You screenshare regularly and want to avoid surprises
- You dislike “magic” cleanup tools
- You prefer visibility and control over automation

- Scroll to the DeskMinder alert
- Click “Open Anyway”

You’ll only need to do this once.
