Disk space analysis for macOS, Windows and Linux

Deepsize

See what takes up the space on your drives.

Deepsize reads drives or single folders and shows every folder and every file by size. The picture grows while the scan is still running, and you move what you no longer need to the Trash right from the view.

  • macOS, Windows and Linux
  • Results while it scans
  • Scans stay on your computer
The Deepsize window after a scan: the folder tree by size on the left, the rings around 370 GB in the middle, the details with files, share of the drive and the file types on the right.

Features

  • Three views

    Rings, treemap and layers show the same scan. The selection is always the same in the tree, the view and the details.

  • Live while scanning

    The view grows while Deepsize is still reading. You can already select and go into folders in the meantime.

  • Stays current

    After the scan Deepsize follows the changes on disk and counts changed folders again in the background.

  • Every drive

    Internal, external and network drives are there to pick. A drive you plug in shows up in the list right away.

  • File types

    Video, images, audio, code, caches and more, each with its size for the folder you are looking at.

  • Trash with confirmation

    Every deletion asks first, with count and size, and goes to the Trash. The tree adjusts without a new scan.

Views

One scan, three views

A click selects, a double-click goes into the folder, Backspace goes back. The colour follows the folder or the file type.

The Deepsize rings up close: the pointer on the folder Urlaub, with 83.4 GB and 22.6% in the middle.

Rings

The scanned location in the middle, every folder level one ring further out. The longer the arc, the more space it takes.

The Deepsize treemap up close: the pointer on the folder Reisefilm with 74.2 GB, the files beside it as areas.

Treemap

Every file a cushion, every folder a frame. The area matches the space taken.

The Deepsize layers up close: the pointer on the folder Library with 69.4 GB, the next level below.

Layers

The scanned location on top, every folder level one layer further down. The wider, the more space it takes.

Folders and files

By folder or by file type

In folder mode the folders are the units, every top folder in its own hue. In files mode Deepsize shows what the location holds by type: one arc per file type inside, the largest files of each type outside.

  • Folders
  • Files
  • 13 file types
  • Largest files per type
The rings in files mode: video, audio, system and further types inside, the largest files of each type outside.

Live

The result grows while it scans

Deepsize reads on all cores and keeps sending a fresh picture to the view. Once the scan is done, it follows the changes on disk and counts changed folders again without reading everything anew.

  • View grows along
  • Stop at any time
  • Changes are followed
Deepsize during a scan: the rings around 282 GB are already there, the progress runs at the bottom with 8,447 files.

Drives

Whole drives or a single folder

To start, you pick all local drives, single drives or a folder, also by dragging it into the window. External and network drives are marked, and a drive you plug in shows up without a restart.

  • Local, external, network
  • Drag in a folder
  • Recent scans
The Deepsize start dialog: three drives with how full they are, one external, one on the network.

Deepsize Pro

Pro helps clean up

Pro unlocks three functions. Without Pro you can see them, but they are locked.

  • Cleanup suggestions

    Pro

    Caches, dependencies, build output and old installers, sorted by size and explained. What comes back by itself is ticked in advance; what you should look at first is not.

  • Duplicates

    Pro

    Files with the same content, grouped by wasted space. You pick the copy that stays in each group; hard links do not count as duplicates.

  • Compare scans

    Pro

    Every complete scan is saved. When comparing, the view colours by growth, and a list names what grew, what is new and what is gone.

Free and Pro compared
The cleanup suggestions: 6.5 GB selected to free up, app caches, cache folders and node_modules ticked; installers in Downloads to look at first.
In front, the duplicates: the copy that stays in each group and the extra copies with path, age and size.

Your scans stay on your computer

Deepsize reads your drives on your computer and saves the scans there. Names, paths and sizes from your scans do not go online. Deepsize connects only to look for updates and, if you use Pro, for the licence.

  • No account
  • Scans in the app's data folder
  • Works without a connection
