App summary

SD Maid will help you keep your device clean and tidy!
It offers a collection of tools to manage apps and files.

Nobody is perfect and neither is Android.
Apps you have already removed leave something behind.
Logs, crash reports and other files you don't really want are constantly being created.
Your storage is collecting files and directories you don't recognize.
Let’s not go on here... Let SD Maid help you!

SD Maid allows you to:
• Browse your whole device and manipulate files through a full-fledged file explorer.
• Remove superfluous files from your system.
• Manage installed user and system apps.
• Detect files formerly belonging to uninstalled apps.
• Search for files by name, content or date.
• Obtain a detailed overview of your devices storage.
• Optimize databases.
• Do actual app cleaning and remove expendable files, which supersedes what others may call 'cache cleaning'.
• Detect duplicate pictures, music or documents, independent of name or location.
• Run tools automatically on a schedule or via widgets.

SD Maid has optional features that utilize the AccessibilityService API to automate tedious actions.
Using the AccessibilityService API, SD Maid can click buttons for you to perform operations on multiple apps, e.g. deleting caches or force stopping apps.
SD Maid does not use the AccessibilityService API to collect information.

Absolutely the best! I tried the free By far this has been the best phone cleaner I've ever used! I appreciate the option to scversion and bought the paid version. The app has some very cool features not found anywhere else. The explorer option is the best system and file viewer I have found to find hidden system folders and being able to force open to view is the best feature. I also like that this app does not batch trash everything. You are able to pick and choose. Kudos to the developers!!!!

I love SDMaid, I have been a multi-year premium user for a long time! I use it mostly every day so I wanted to share the positive feedback! Dev can you PLEASE add back the older version option that shows the apps with the boot autostart? Now I can't see what's enabled without going into each app under 'app control'. I use an older version that still has it and set the apps autostart (because I can see them with the older app), but I lose all recent bug updates, PLEASE add this in the LATEST ver!

Very fast and thorough. And no ads!!!! Including pricing info/link for the Pro upgrade on the paywalls would be helpful Sorry. I had to find something to whine adout at 1:00 AM here on Guam. Anyway. I'm very impressed. I gave SD Maid permissions I didnt even know existed, and blasted through every action I could with less attention than I would on a Microsoft user agreement. And yet, my phone still functions, and faster. It's only been 3 years.
