@jonas_petermann Fossils is focused on previewing your files before deciding to delete or archive them. Fossils also looks for old files but is way faster and less expensive.
Why do I have a feeling that any app focused on Apple products and platform are quickly featured on PH?
I can't test this app because I am a Windows and Android user, so how come can I rate the app?!
What does it mean to "archive" something? Does it get moved to a specific folder/location? Does it get compressed? Thank you!
@paul_williams23 Archive means moving to another folder. It’s main purpose is to move stuff of your local drive to Cloud storage or a NAS.
@kartikdadwal Nope. It's just on a file by file basis. It's difficult to preview a whole folder. Fossils is all about deciding to archive or delete a file based on the contents, not just its filename.
A very useful tool (if you use CC cleaner you will love this tool) that helps you get rid of all unnecessary files.
Pros:Easy to use
Cons:Non that I can think of
