iKnowMyMac is a native Mac app that tells you why your Mac is slow, what's filling your disk and what's draining your battery, with the evidence and one action for each. It also updates your other apps from one tab. One-time purchase, no subscription.
Hi Product Hunt, I'm Deepak. I built iKnowMyMac because every system monitor gave me numbers and left me to work out the answer.
Press "Why is my Mac slow?" and it reads the last hour, ranks the causes and shows the evidence, like "Docker and 3 simulators took 14.6 GB and pushed 4.2 GB into swap". Each cause has one action.
It also shows what's filling your disk, what kept your Mac awake overnight, per-app volume, updates for your other apps, and a log of every USB device that connects.
It's for Apple silicon Macs on macOS 15 or later. No account, no analytics in the app.
Price: $4.99 one-time for the first 100 licenses, then $9.99. There's no trial, but a 14-day refund, no questions.
I launched on 1 October and 41 people have bought it so far. I'd love to know what it finds on your Mac, and what's missing.
This is something I've been looking for, so I decided to buy it. However, so far, the experience has been pretty frustrating.
For example, I use VSCode and Chrome a lot, and I constantly get notifications about increased memory usage or memory pressure. But that's expected! Of course memory usage will increase when I'm researching something and opening multiple tabs. Or when I'm in the development process.
It would be great to have an option to disable specific notifications for individual apps or at least find a way to make them less intrusive. Right now, the constant notifications are more annoying than helpful.
