We all love that new Mac feeling.
Then, slowly, it starts feeling tired.
Shiny, the one-tap memory cleanup app for Mac, lives quietly in your menu bar. It notices when your Mac is struggling and lets you polish it all with a single click.
Shiny frees the memory your Mac no longer needs and
quiets the background clutter slowing it down, right
from your menu bar, the moment you press Polish.
Forgotten apps, quiet background work, things you saved months ago. Year by year, it all adds up.
Every background app, named in plain English. Pause the ones you don't need.
Twelve ticks fill up as your Mac gets busier. Green, amber, red. A glance is enough.
Summon Shiny from any app. The default's good, but yours to change.
When things get tight, Shiny quietly acts on its own.
Shiny names the apps using the most memory right now, so the ones you don't need are one click from closing.
No telemetry, no tracking, no data ever leaves your machine.
A soft warm tint at the edges of every display. Hover to see it.
Behind that one tap, four small things happen in turn.
I was three clicks away from buying a new MacBook. Two weeks of Shiny later, I'm still on the same one.
I don't usually pay for software. This one was actually worth it.
I open about thirty tabs while I'm planning lessons. I used to restart my Mac three times a day. Now I just press Polish and carry on.
The corners of my screen go gently orange when my Mac is about to fall apart. It's the kindest way anything has ever told me to slow down.
Worth the money just for the Teams calls. My Mac actually stays usable now.
I'd forgotten what my Mac was like before the spinning rainbow wheel. Massively helpful.

Yes. Shiny is notarized by Apple, meaning Apple scans it for malware before you download. It runs as a normal app, same as Notes or Calendar.
Yes. Polish works in a second or two and never disturbs the app you're in, it frees inactive memory and holds off the deep clean while audio is playing. And anything you set aside in Sneaky Apps is fully reversible: Shiny puts the startup entry back with one click.
If your Mac feels sluggish from memory pressure, yes, usually noticeably. If it's slow from a full disk or aging hardware, Shiny can't fix that.
No analytics, no telemetry, no tracking, no ads. The only outbound call checks for new versions. Verify it yourself with Little Snitch.
One-time. $4.99 once, on up to three Macs, forever. No recurring charges, no auto-renewals, no "Pro tier" upsells, no surprises later.
No. CleanMyMac scans your disk and deletes files for around $40 a year. Shiny frees memory, costs $4.99 once, and never touches files.
