About App Cleaner & Uninstaller
App Cleaner & Uninstaller removes Mac applications together with the hidden support files they leave behind, and can remove several programs at once. It also collects app updates in one place, lets you manage startup programs and removes unwanted extensions.
Recent versions add network controls: you can see how much traffic each app uses and block internet access for any app. Nektony says the traffic analysis runs on the Mac itself. It suits Mac users who install and remove a lot of software and want the leftovers gone.
