PureMac 2.7.0
A big visual + experience release. The dashboard is now animated and graphical end-to-end, plus fixes and a new Finder shortcut.
New
- Redesigned dashboard — a premium animated health ring, a live storage-composition donut (Used / Junk / Purgeable / Free), and a Swift Charts breakdown of junk by category after a scan. Cards and results now cascade in.
- Right-click to uninstall — select any app in Finder and choose Services → Uninstall with PureMac to jump straight into its related-files scan (#109).
- Refined celebration — the cleanup confetti was rebuilt from scratch: softer brand colors, mixed shapes, gentler motion, and it fully respects Reduce Motion.
Fixed
- No more "/" as a deletion target — APFS Purgeable Space no longer shows the root directory as its path and no longer produces a bogus "Couldn't remove /" message after cleaning (#112, thanks @Vombato).
- Launchpad / Dock icon refresh — the Homebrew cask now refreshes LaunchServices on install so the icon updates immediately instead of showing a stale cached one. A manual cache-reset is documented in the README for stubborn cases (#111).
- Permission failures continue to route into the guided Full Disk Access flow rather than a bare alert (#107).
Under the hood
- All animations honor Reduce Motion.
- Localization parity maintained across all 7 languages.
- Published a deep-research roadmap (
docs/IMPROVEMENT-RESEARCH.md) for what's next.
