With the passage of time, our hard drive begins to fill up with files of all kinds, whether they are videos, photographs, documents, applications ... If we want to see the space that each one occupies, we must go directory by directory (if we have the files grouped in this way ) to check if the occupied space may be necessary for another function. It is a tedious task that can make us give up our intentions at first glance. Fortunately in the Mac App Store we can find applications that allow us to check at a glance the space occupied by each of the files of the folders that we have previously selected.
Pulvinus is one of them, an application that is available for download for free, at least at the time of programming this article. Its usual price is 1,99 euros. As you can see in the image above, Pulvinus offers us information about the stored files, classified by color in the right box. But Pulvinus not only allows us to view the content that we have stored on our hard drive, but also In addition, it also allows us to erase the content that is stored on our Mac.
The application has a customizable color coding mechanism for each type of file, be it video, audio, documents or applications, to make it much easier to identify them. In this way, if we want to delete the application files, represented for example in green, we just have to select them and click on the delete button or drag them directly to the recycle bin. File analysis It is done using advanced multi-threaded techniques to take advantage of all the cores of our Mac. Pulvinus occupies just over 3.6 MB and. requires macOS 10.12 to function in addition to a 64-bit processor.
