Hey Product Hunt community! 👋 I'm excited to introduce CleanMyUSB - a macOS app that finally solves one of those everyday Mac frustrations we all know too well! The Problem: Every time you use a USB drive or SD card on your Mac, it gets cluttered with invisible junk files - .DS_Store files, AppleDouble files (._), Spotlight indexes, system trash folders, and other macOS artifacts that can cause issues when sharing with Windows/Linux users or just eat up precious storage space. The Solution: CleanMyUSB automatically detects your external devices and intelligently cleans up: • Hidden .DS_Store files that appear everywhere • Spotlight search indexes (.Spotlight-V100) • AppleDouble files (._): Resource forks that clutter Windows folders • System trash folders and temporary files • Cross-platform compatibility issues • Custom file types you define What makes it special: ✨ Smart Detection and Cleanup - Automatically recognizes and Cleanup USB drives, SD cards, and external storage 🛡️ Safe & Secure - Only deletes files you explicitly approve 🎯 One-Click Operation - Scan, review, and clean in seconds 🎨 Modern UI - Clean, intuitive interface designed for better user experience 📊 Complete History - Detailed cleaning reports track all your device maintenance 🔄 Latest macOS Support - Fully compatible with the latest macOS 26 🌍 Universal Support - Available in 12 languages Why I built this: As a Mac user who frequently works with external drives, I was tired of manually hunting down these hidden files or dealing with "file not compatible" errors when sharing drives. CleanMyUSB makes this process effortless and automatic. The app handles everything from simple .DS_Store cleanup to complex system file management, with special handling for different filesystems like exFAT. It even includes smart automation features like auto-prompting when devices are inserted and safe ejection after cleaning. Pricing & Availability: $9.99 one-time purchase, 7-day free trial. 🎉 Product Hunt Special: 50% OFF launch discount - just $5 (reg. $9.99)! Use code： XAW94O9BSF What's your biggest frustration with USB drive management on Mac? Would love to hear your experiences and answer any questions! Feel free to download and try it for free!
