CleanMyPhone for Mac review
CleanMyPhone for Mac promises to free up space on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch by deleting unneeded files and other digital detritus. Although you'll have to pay up if you want to use its features, this demo version gives you a good idea of what you can expect from the app.
Pros
Multi-pronged approach: CleanMyPhone searches for space-sucking files in a number of ways, including an App Cleaner, Privacy Clean, System Cleanup, and Find Large Files tool. There's also a One-Click Copy feature that lets you create a clone of data on your phone.
Attractive interface: The app looks nice and is easy to navigate. Each of its tools is contained in its own tab, and it's easy to switch between them.
Cons
Trial limitations: CleanMyPhone for Mac will show you what it can do to tidy up your phone, but if you want it to actually perform its cleaning tasks, you'll have to pay for an upgrade.
Little documentation: CleanMyPhone for Mac doesn't offer much in the way of guidance aside from brief descriptions of each feature, which are written in questionable English.
Bottom Line
CleanMyPhone for Mac offers a promising set of features that can help you manage what's stored on your iOS device. It's worth a try if you find yourself frequently running out of room or noticing performance issues on your device.
Editors' note: This is a review of the trial version of CleanMyPhone for Mac 3.0.0.
