It must be tough trying to make an application when one already exists. Appzapper is clean, simple, and does the job. It has the files that it's going to delete and that's it. No bells, well, a nice old lazer zap sound. This cleanapp is too complicated where it doesn't have to be. They are a troll come lately. They think if they have all this archive this, and light switch that, they think we want that. No, the public wants something simple that works. I would go for CleanApp if there was nothing else. There really is a need to trash apps and their files that we no longer wants or were just trying out. I wish there was something like that years ago. Anyway, simple is better in this case. I like lots of controls on some apps, but it's not needed for taking out the trash.

Sorry, but you're wrong - jorritpeter

AppZapper looks clean and works simple, but it does not find all the related files, while CleanApp does. After you have the logging-service running, every app that's installed for the first time, is monitored and all related files will be found, even invisible files, try that with AppZapper...

I've got both applications, but CleanApp is much better. It had some problems with the logging service, but I was able to help the developer and now it works fantastic. Everything I install can be deleted and that feels great and clean. :-)
