Perguntas frequentes
What is the best alternative to Space Radar for Mac?
For most Mac users it's NullDisk: native SwiftUI, a radial sunburst map, a staged removal collector, and zero data collection. Space Radar users who want mixed views and open source pricing will feel at home within minutes.
Is there a free alternative to Space Radar?
Yes — GrandPerspective and Disk Inventory X are free and open source with genuine treemap analysis. They lack NullDisk's collector workflow and sunburst map, but they find the biggest hogs fast.
How do I switch from Space Radar to NullDisk?
Note the largest folders Space Radar flagged, then run the same scan in NullDisk and rebuild the cleanup in its removal collector. The full walkthrough is on our switching guide.
Em resumo
Space Radar is a fine free tool for mixed fans on macOS + Windows + Linux. But if you want the whole job — see, stage, and safely remove — done natively on a modern Mac, NullDisk is the upgrade. Guia de migração →
