Clean Mode is a simple macOS utility that disables your keyboard and trackpad so you can safely clean your screen. No accidental clicks, no shortcuts triggered, just wipe and hold Escape to exit.

Hey PH! I'm Anubhav, a product designer from India. Every time I cleaned my Mac keyboard, I'd accidentally trigger Spotlight, open random apps, or send half-typed messages. So I built MacWipe :) a tiny macOS utility that disables your keyboard, trackpad, and clicks instantly so you can wipe your screen and keyboard in peace. Think of it as Tesla's cleaning mode, but for your Mac. How it works: → Launch MacWipe, everything gets disabled → Clean your screen and keyboard safely → Hold ESC to exit (or it auto-exits in 2 minutes) I vibe coded the whole thing with Claude in a weekend. It's free, no tracking, no accounts. Would love to hear what you think and if you've ever accidentally opened 12 apps while cleaning your keyboard, you know why this exists :)

Simple but super useful. I’ve definitely triggered random stuff while cleaning my screen before.

Nice idea, however I always lock my screen with a shortcut `ctrl + option + Q` - and the only one key which is turning then is caps lock - not a big deal... simple but powerful
