Description
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.

4 ★ Something went wrong recently. It was a 5-star app for me for a number of years (paid version), but the system and application scans take too long lately. Please fix. I will change it back to 5 stars. Motorola Moto G Power.
2 ★ It takes forever just to scan and now I'm completely stuck in the cleaning process. No progress has been made at all. I don't know what's wrong with the app, and I'm a Pro user as well so I'm quite disappointed. Other users also have the same problem.
5 ★ Very useful if you install and delete a lot of stuff all the time (especially if you have a low-storage phone, as I once did), as it has an app "corpse cleaner" that deletes all unnecessary files left behind by deleted garbage
1 ★ I am a pro user. Before the last update, it worked fine. The update was disastrous. If it shows 1.7 GB, garbage files on scanning, after running the app, same size is left, even if the task is performed multiple times, with remove all option.
4 ★ Simple UI with robust cleaning functions Edit: App cleaner that uses the accessibility service does not work properly on MIUI 12. The prompt says that the accessibility service is not running and I end up having to restart my phone to get the app cleaner to work.
5 ★ Have been using the " Maid Pro" for nearly a decade, on many Samsung Notes.. Note 2, 4, 9, 10+ 5g, and now 20. If your device is rooted or not, the Maid does a brilliant job in firmware management. It has become an essential tool in my life. One of the greatest apps to ever be produced. I'd give it 10*×/⁵⁷⁰⁹ ★★★★★★★★★★★'s and more if I could. Thank you Alex. You should b proud of ur creation.
4 ★ Hello Dev, I've been using this app for years now and it has always been a 5 star app for me. I rated it 4 here because I'm having an issue with this app after updating my device to Android 11. The issue is Corpsefinder is always showing 0b as results. Even after I uninstalled multiple other apps it doesn't find any corpse files. Is it a bug or did something change with Android 11? Thanks you.
5 ★ Does it's job and does it well while still being lightweight and affordable. Fantastic app, I'd definitely recommend it to any having storage issues with their phone.
1 ★ With last new update everything takes longer to scan especially "systems cleaner" and "app cleaner".those take forever to complete..bcoz of that i don't use this app now.i am using paid version.i am not liking this app now as before.......don't know have i wasted my money on this app or not.....
4 ★ Overall I really like the app, but it's giving me problems. It's asking for read/write permissions to a folder 2 different file explorers can't find. "SD Card/storage/3532-6433" So right now I can't use the app because it won't move forward without this permission.
5 ★ Best Android cleaner. Better than Av*st, better than ccl*aner, better than Google F*les. I used those before. But only SD Maid was able to find a video cutter app that had 1.5GB of temp files in its data folder. I was about to buy a new phone but SD Maid made me recover 2.5GB of internal storage. I purchased the SD Maid Pro unlocker. At 3.60 it is worth every dollar. I suggest you also use APPMGR III to move all apps that allow it to SD card. It gave my old phone at least one extra year of use.
2 ★ 28May: I wrote you the below email on 20th May, but you didn't respond, even after reminding you 2 more times. Because of this lax I'm giving this app 3 stars. Hi I noticed with latest version, dated 3rd May, SD Maid no longer remove older WhatsApp backups. Can you please resolve this. Thanks 08July: Upgraded my phone to Android 11, SD Maid doesn't work anymore eg not clearing sent WhatsApp media (besides backups above); noticed WhatsApp folder is no longer in the Root folder. Drop 1 more ⭐.
2 ★ Stopped working the way it used to be. I'm on android 11, and most of the thrash (temp, app cache, yada yada..) aren't cleared at all, but the sdmaid proclaimed it had. 5+ years of sd maid pro, what's w/ it the app now?!
2 ★ The application cleaner does not work when you turn on the accessability option. It just keeps going over and over the same application. Without doing anything to it. Never had that problem before until I purchased that Pro setting application. I NEED this to work please. Thanks
3 ★ 3 star, because the AppCleaner module doesn't actually clean app caches. After installing the app I allowed all the permissions this app asked for. Currently when I scan, it shows that 271mb can be cleaned, but after performing the task, it just cleaned few kilobytes of caches.
