Version: 9.0.4
Um, this is scary: There are two locations for buying App Cleaner & Uninstaller. The prices are different. And the one I link below offers a not-subscription option. It's subscription prices are also less expensive. Huh? So check this out, same app: https://app-cleaner.com/buy -> For one Mac: $7.95/mth. $14.95/yr. $34.95 one-time purchase. - - Compare that to what's listed at the Nektony site and you find no one-time purchase option. Instead they're selling for $34.95/yr subscription bundle that adds • MacCleaner Pro
• Duplicate File Finder
• Disk Space Analyzer
• Memory Cleaner
• Funter

Why paying for this (two words) app when you can have the same for FREE with the (one word) app AppCleaner? - The (one word) app AppCleaner is around for FREE since many years and does a great job.

I like to test various applications from time to time on my Mac, and for those I choose to delete, I find that the included uninstaller doesn't entirely clear the footprint, that is IF an uninstaller is even included with the applications I try. This is where using App Cleaner & Uninstaller comes in and does exactly what I need done, which is to remove all traces of the applications throughout. When I've had a question or needed to resolve a licensing issue, the developer is fast, efficient, and polite with a response that always provides the solution I was hoping to receive.

Yeah, why pay for these features? For the 9000th time, AppCleaner, free and well supported, works well. And again, I also use the excellent FREE app EasyFind to find any files, folders, etc. not found by AppCleaner.

Subscription !!!! ...for what ?!! for cleaning ??? ..when there are plenty of applications that do exactly that, cleaning your computer from unnecessary junk and removing application. AppCleaner, TrashMe, Remove-it, Donemax AppRemover, CrapCleaner, and at least 20 more, some free, and others are between $5 to $15 or more. Don't make mistake, all these applications do exactly the same, as this one for $180 for ONE year. For this amount you can get ALL cleaning applications in existence!
