SpaceSweep ​

SpaceSweep frees up storage on your Android phone. It finds duplicate files, apps with large caches, leftover junk and the biggest files, shows you what it found, and deletes only what you choose.

The SpaceSweep home screen with a storage ring at 90 percent and four tools below it
The home screen: how full your storage is, and four ways to free some.

Who it is for ​

  • Anyone whose phone says storage is almost full and who wants to see where the space went before deleting anything.
  • People with years of photos and downloads, where the same picture or video has been saved several times.
  • Testers and developers who leave installer files (APKs) and logs behind.

What it does ​

ToolWhat it finds
Duplicate filesFiles with identical content, even when their names differ. One copy of each is always kept.
App cacheApps ranked by cache size, with Android's own ways to clear caches.
Junk filesThumbnail caches, leftover installers, old temporary and log files, media in the trash, empty folders.
Large filesEvery file over 10, 50, 100 or 500 MB.

The home screen's ring shows how full your internal storage is, split into photos, videos, apps and everything else once you allow usage access.

Privacy ​

SpaceSweep works offline. It has no internet permission, no ads and no tracking, so nothing about your files can leave the phone.

DANGER

Files SpaceSweep deletes are gone for good. They do not go to a recycle bin and cannot be recovered. Check what is selected before you tap Delete.

Platforms and licence ​

SpaceSweep runs on Android 8.0 or later. The source code and the issue tracker are on GitHub.
