Updates

Get the newest version.

Mac Deficit does not install updates itself. A new version is a new download from your purchase, and replacing the app takes a minute.

If you bought the direct download

  1. Open the downloads of your purchase and download the newest disk image.
  2. Quit Mac Deficit if it is open.
  3. Open the disk image and drag Mac Deficit to Applications. When Finder asks, choose Replace.
  4. Open Mac Deficit. Your settings, recent scans and history are kept, and so is Full Disk Access.

Version 1.0 has not been released yet, so there is nothing to update. This page is where Check for Updates… will bring you once it has.

If you have it from the Mac App Store

The App Store updates it for you. Open the App Store and choose Updates, or turn on automatic updates in its settings.

Which version do I have?

Choose Mac Deficit › About Mac Deficit. To ask whether a newer one is out, choose Mac Deficit › Check for Updates…: the app reads one version number from this site, only when you ask, and sends nothing about you or your Mac. More on privacy.
