Frequently Asked Questions

Is DaisyDisk free?
Please check the developer's website for current pricing information.
The download seems damaged or won't open?
If the disk image won't mount, right-click the .dmg and choose Open — macOS Gatekeeper will then offer an override.
How do I install the app after downloading?
Mount the .dmg by double-clicking it, drag the application bundle into /Applications, then eject the disk image. For .pkg installers, double-click and follow the prompts.
Will this run on Apple Silicon (M1-M4)?
Check the Architecture line in the Specifications panel on this page. Universal binaries run natively on both Apple Silicon and Intel. Intel-only builds run through Rosetta 2 on M-series Macs.
How do I update the app later?
Re-download the latest version from the catalogue, mount the new disk image, and drag-replace the application bundle in /Applications.
Can I request an app that isn't in the catalogue?
The catalogue is curated by a small editorial team. Request lists are accepted by community comment threads on each macOS release roundup.
