What's new in TidyFile

TidyFile updates itself in the background, so you always have the latest version. Here's what's changed.

2.3 · Faster first tidy, no-card trial and invites

October 2026

  • On first launch TidyFile looks at your Downloads folder and suggests rules with real counts, like “Invoices & receipts: 4 files”. One click previews them on your files.
  • The free trial no longer needs a card. Add one any time before it ends to keep going.
  • Reminders before your trial ends, in the app and as notifications.
  • Give a month, get a month: invite friends from the Account page.
  • Share your before & after after a big tidy.
  • Mac installers (.dmg, .pkg) count as installers in rules.

2.2 · TidyFile for Mac

October 2026

  • TidyFile now runs on Macs with Apple silicon and Intel (macOS 10.15 or later).
  • Mac-native wording and behaviour: Trash, the menu bar, Open at login.
  • Rules made on a Windows PC work on a Mac and the other way round.
  • A new app icon and look.
  • Fixed off-centre switches and the ready-made rule cards.

2.1 · Try before you buy

October 2026

  • Add rules and preview what they'd do to your files before creating an account.
  • Sign in with Google.
  • Prices in pounds or dollars, depending on where you are.
  • If a renewal payment fails, TidyFile keeps working for 7 days while it retries.
  • A running count of how many files TidyFile has tidied for you.

2.0 · A complete redesign

October 2026

  • A new, simpler interface built around rules and profiles.
  • Tidy existing files with a full preview, and undo any move from the activity log.
  • Rules that match type, name, size and age, with AND / OR.
  • Starts with your computer and runs quietly in the background.
