We've been using OmniDiskSweeper on our Macs for years and thankfully that's going to continue with this update. That's Catalina doing what it's supposed to so don't worry when the dialog boxes start flying. OmniDiskSweeper for Catalina Available OmniDiskSweeper 1.12 is our free app for finding disk space on your Mac and we just updated it for Catalina (macOS 10.15) It shows you everything on your hard drive, ranked by size, so you can see which files and folders are taking up a lot of space which helps you figure out what you can delete.

This is because it's looking at the sizes of all your files, which includes the files that contain your contacts.īut it's not actually reading your contacts, files in your Documents folder, and so on - it's just looking at file sizes.īecause the app needs to dip its toes into every corner of your drive Catalina will shout about it, making sure you know what's happening. The updates for Catalina include a Dark Mode About Panel, fixed handling of Catalina volumes, and removal of an unneeded notification.īut do note that Catalina will ask for permissions for OmniDiskSweeper to access various things - it might ask, for instance, if it can access your contacts. You can thank Catalina's new security settings for that. But as the team over at Omni points out, you can expect to see a few warnings the first time you run this thing. It's fully Catalina compatible, including a gorgeous Dark Mode implementation. The OmniDiskSweeper v1.12 update is now available for download, as announced on The Omni Blog.
